I was disappointed that the soft‑shell crab I was looking forward to wasn’t available, but the scallops and flounder were all fresh and delicious. I’d love to try their happy hour next time.

The happy hour oysters and pint of beer can't be beat! The Maine lobster was perfectly cooked and the garlic softshell crabs were delicious. We came back the next night for more oysters, the spicy pineapple margarita, roasted beets and shrimp tacos and enjoyed everything. I had a accidentally dropped my cash envelope at my table the first night and they texted me that they found it. How many places would do that??
