Great food, great oysters! The best bloody Mary around. I wish there was another one in Palm Beach Gardens. This place is always packed, what does that tell you?

This was my first time here. The place is truly a hole in the wall, but that's fine because I was looking for a casual place to get some good seafood. I went here craving crabs, crab cakes and shrimps. The best part of my meal was the crab cakes. They were very very very good. The crab legs came out warm but they clearly weren't fresh. They were kind of tough. I could've went to Red Lobsters if I wanted not-so-fresh seafood. The stuffed shrimps were very disappointing. You get a try with shrimps and then you get a ball of ritz crackers crumb on top. The waitress (who was horrible, I'll get to that in a minute) told me that it was suppose to be stuffed crab meat. Idk of the chef forgot the crab meat. Pls don't order it. You'll be mad. The waitress who was "nice" provided horrible service. My cousin is allergic to citrus and we informed the waitress prior to ordering. All of my cousin food and drinks came out with lemon on top. We had to send every thing back including her water that they added lemon in it. She was not attentive, I had to ask for her or go look for her myself anytime we needed anything. One nice thing about this place is that they gave me a free order of fried shrimp since it was my birthday. They were delicious and not greasy at all. If you want Red Lobster quality food and undesirable service then go elsewhere.

Awesome seafood dishes, esp the crab! Love this place.

The lobster soup and clam dinner was great. the oyster trio was terrible to small of oyster. The fish sandwich our friends had was good. The service was ok to poor. But I would go back for t h e soup alone.

agreed, lobster bisque is amazing. that said, you dont go here for the fine dinning, you go for the sea side atmosphere and quick and good sea food.

You always give great service and the food is hot and fresh. We will always come back when we can.

The lobster bisque and smoked fish dip are worth the trip...enough said.

I was expecting much more from what I have heard about this place, I didn't like it much, it was so so to me. The clam chowder, which is y favorite soup, was very salty and tasted like it was out of a can.

OVER PRICED FOR ORDINARY FOOD.
