We stopped in for lunch and were seriously impressed! The fish and chips were crispy and flavorful, and the calamari was some of the best we’ve had—tender and perfectly cooked. The service was awesome—friendly, fast, and welcoming. On top of that, there’s a wine tasting room...Read More

Perfect place to grab fresh or baked oysters or clams with seasonal flavors, while inhaling the refreshing sea breeze outside. Unfortunately, the rest of the food didn’t please my tastes. Hoping to see more tasty and healthy options in the future. Service was quick...Read More

This place is awesome with great, friendly service. We tried the oysters, clam chowder, fish and chips, shrimp and chips, and the cioppino — everything was absolutely amazing and, most importantly, incredibly fresh. The quality of the seafood really stood out. Highly recommended!

Superb service and delicious food. The fresh grilled oysters were perfect! The clam chowder is one of the best I’ve tasted. I truly love the calamari steak with the pesto. Cooked to perfection too. Kudos to the kitchen and staff for a memorable experience.

Because there were more of us, the waiting time was longer. The wait time can be disappointing. (It is recommended to share the WIFI so those waiting can kill time). After entering the restaurant, the waiter's attitude was very good, the food was delicious, and...Read More

Really delicious location for tasty elevated homemade coastal food. The clam chowder with the toasted bread bowl, AMAZING! Honestly everything we ate was fantastic. Perhaps the one downside to our meal was the fish and chips were smaller …

10/10 the best restaurant! Amazingly delicious cioppino, super fresh oysters, and local/yummy ice cream. The local sparkling wine was wonderful too. Especially the cioppino...

I must commend the kitchen on a truly exceptional lunch. The tuna melt was executed flawlessly, and the onion rings were a revelation. They far exceeded any expectations I had for fried food. I highly recommend this establishment.
