I can tolerate bad music for good crab. I saw the review from last week and still ordered the King Crab.,..which was delicious. The owner must have gotten rid of the old crab. Mine was awesome and cooked perfectly so the meat came out easily....Read More

We were very happy with our server, Charlie. She was super friendly and didn't make fun of how messy we were eating. The shrimp, muscles and oysters were AMAZING! I was even given a rose for mothersday. We will definitely be back!!
