I love this place. The staff there makes you feel like family and I guess that’s the one thing I love about this place other than their food which is so good! Especially their colossal shrimp! The burgers are the best! And the variety of seafood is on point. Let’s not forget about the delicious fish sandwiches. I give this place a five star!

The fried seafood is delicious and the customer service is good. However, the lobster Mac & Cheese is horrible! The recipe is inconsistent, the cheese that is used has zero flavor, it's made with imitation crab meat and you can taste the roux. Don't bother ordering it, as you will certainly be disappointed. They should honestly just remove it from their menu as it's not their niche whatsoever.

If you haven't been here yet you absolutely need to try it! So far I've had the crab mac & cheese and the fish sandwich with mashed potatoes. Both were equally delicious. And they are super fast with getting orders out. The staff are so much fun and truly care about their patrons. 5 stars from me!

Love the collosal shrimp and rice. Best I've had. Been three times with different friends and they all love it. Fries and plantains are also good, rice is outstanding as is the mango habenero sauce.Update: I just had the amazing new England clam chowder. Big chunks of calms in a nicely seasoned broth.outstanding!

had the fried whiting, tostones and crab Mac & cheese. Delicious! I couldnt finish the whole thing it was so much food! I like the NYC vibe, lunch counter. Ill be back!
