Value for money, no problem BUUUUUUT this was all $$$$ money and ZERO value!!! We had been warned about this restaurant but wanted to test our own taste buds. It begins with the outside "feel"....property very poorly maintained. Lots of weeds all around. Dismal feel. The only acceptable part was our calamari appetizer. My.husband's lobster bisque was a very small portion with minimal lobster and my crab salad with Italian dressing couldn't be more lack luster. ZERO FLAVOR. BORING!!!! I ate 1/2..Appetizer, small bowl of soup, entree icky salad, & tip, $50. Value for money??? We WONT BE BACK!

6/14/22 2:40pm Tues. Ordered the shrimp roll, fries, cole slaw. Fries came out immediately, hot and lightly salted. The roll was french bread like and was warm/lightly toasted. Shrimp salad was great: lightly seasoned so I could taste the shrimp. Slaw was fresh, crunchy and tasty. Lemon wedge was fresh and full of juice. The place was quiet and cool on a hot afternoon. I'll be back. Only one other person eating when I arrived. On the way out I saw that they had banana pudding for dessert. Wish I had seen that on the way in.12/25/21 9:01 AM. CLOSED. Thanks for indicating on your Google Maps listing that you are closed! Most restaurants do not bother.

I honestly hate doing bad reviews but I just had to for this restaurant. Went there really wanting it to be a good experience. First of all the hostess was absolutely uncaring my wife and I were even there. I know she didn't even really welcome us. The chicken tenders my wife had was the worst chicken either of us has ever had at any restaurant ever. It seems they must use low grade food choices for their meals. The only reason I didn't give them one star was because my food wasn't completely horrible. And when I paid for the meal, I told the hostess how bad the chicken was, and she could not have cared less. Not that I was expecting some sort of reduction off of our bill, though it would have been nice, to not even get a response to the low quality food was pretty amazing. I had really looked forward to eating at this restaurant and after our experience, I now look forward to never going back.

Pricey but delicious seafood boil. Save yourself money because we could have shared 1 instead of ordered 2. Lobster was 100 a lb market when we went.Only downfall is the area. Entertainment consisted of 2 Crack heads fighting outside our window. Lock your car your on the corner of hellions and hooligans enjoy the free show.

We had just just come from red lobster because there was a 45 minute wait on a Friday night and the crab house was empty.After dining there, now I know why.The place has serious potential to be a good spot.The staff was professional although not very attentive or responsive.A large white board that had the specials on it, Prominently displayed a family feast for $100.It quickly set the tone for what prices to expect.My companions ordered the crab cakes which were very well presented and according to them tasted very good.I ordered a cup of clam chowder and a fish variety platter with fries.The fish was so overbreaded I couldn't tell which was the shrimp and which was the other fish.The chowder and French fries were pretty much all I ate.What would have been nice if perhaps a toothpick flag indicating which fish was which.The décor was nice but the staff was a bit unresponsive unresponsive and when we ask for a plate they brought out a foam paper plate.Again the place has serious potential to be a good spot but I'm not sure if I'll return.

The lobster roll was delicious! Found this restaurant accidentally and will be returning when I'm in the area. No frills interior but great menu. Highly recommend.

Ordered twice from here and it is my new favorite restaurant. Food is fresh and delicious! I have now had the hush puppies, lobster roll, and shrimp boil. I don’t think I’ve had better ever. Definitely will go again and definitely recommend!!

I don't normally write bad reviews but I went here for dinner and I ordered a seafood boil with a half pound of snow crab which was advertised as 32 dollars and also told i had to order a half pound of something else in the half lb section of the menu I got lobster tail. Then received my boil which had 1 singular crab leg then I received the bill and that one leg was 34.40. I understand seafood is expensive but I dont think anyone should be charged 34 dollars for one crab leg ?Side note our Waitress was amazing, very friendly , very attentive and if I could give her five stars I would!

We went for my daughter's 23rd birthday. Amber was our waitress and rocked it. We honestly couldn't have been more pleased with the food, the service, the prices or the atmosphere. Only a few tables of people were dining. We definitely will be going back. The Crab cakes were to die for; 3 orders later. A great experience!

The lie. They don’t explain their menu properly. Over the phone the lady says there a 2 item minimum so I order 2 items. But when I called back confused about my order being in 1 bag she says it’s a 2lb minimum. But that still wouldn’t explain it all being in 1 bag. I order them with different flavors. Guess what, they thrown all of it into 1 bag and cook it the same way and send it to me that way. Gross. I ordered separate items people!
