Off the beaten path was this quiet little bar. At least it was when we stopped in at 2:30 p.m. on a weekday just in time for the start of happy hour! They have these huge chicken poppers, handmade and perfectly cooked, crunchy, and gooey...Read More

Loved the food. Especially liked the Cook Your Catch option. The blackened fish we brought in turned out wonderful. The service was fabulous. Highly recommend this restaurant. The Happy Hour drinks are delicious too. And the decor was creative with a "boat" theme.

I'm not sure why their average rating is only 3.5 stars because the food, service, atmosphere and price were all excellent! It's not a 5 star restaurant as the building seems quite old but it's still a GREAT place to go. I would DEFINITELY recommend...Read More
