We had a late reservation for 2, 915. Restaurant was half full by that time, but we still waited a few minutes while they set up "our table" which was cheek by jowl between the end wall and loud table of 6, despite multiple empty tables on the other side of the restaurant. I should have asked to be moved, but they did not offer. Made it hard to have a conversation, and it was unnecessary. Maybe they were doing this out of convenience--keep all the late tables with the same server? Relatively minor issue but bit of a damper on evening of otherwise very good food and cocktails.

Oysters on the half shell and a bottle of brut made for a memorable anniversary dinner.

10/10 would recommend. Brought my parents here for my Mom’s birthday. We’re California natives & the seafood was awesome. We had oysters (raw & Rockefeller), calamari, & then our own entrees (lobster roll, scallops, & salmon). Everything was awesome & my parents had a great time.

The key lime tart, salmon entree and summer salad were excellent

Terrible service, cold, mediocre and in some cases inedible food. One of the worst meals I’ve ever had. This place should close.

The gumbo had 3 very tiny shrimp in it. The salad was drenched in dressing. The portion of fish was for a child. Waitstaff was friendly. The calamari looked and tasted like it came from a frozen box.

One of our favorites in Boulder. Seafood Chowder, I can't seem to order anything else.

Food and service was great! Did not like the back table next to stairs and bathrooms! Too congested !!

Excellent food and service in a casual atmosphere. Perfection!

This place just gets better all the time. Delicious food, wonderful service. Fabulous drinks. Just love it.
