Alex M. was our waitress who was amazingly attentive, knowledgeable of the menu, personable, and accommodating. The food special was great, the salad fresh, and the dessert delectable. Hope to get Alex again!

Went for dinner on Friday. Parking was crowded but no wait to get a table. Alex M. was our server. She was great! Attentive and we didn’t wait for anything! Such a ray of sunshine! We had the Crabby Patty, Chicken Alfredo, Seafood Salad sandwich, and the Chicken Chesapeake. Everything was great! Loved the drink menu too. We will definitely be back!

Great restaurant to have breakfast, lunch, or dinner or just a cocktail or two. We were there on a Sunday, and there was a live band playing, so cool. Huge bar area inside and another smaller bar outside. There is plenty of seating inside and out if you prefer to sit at a dining table. The food is very good and reasonably priced also. Great spot to go to watch sports on one of their many oversized TV screens. There is plenty of free parking also. Gotta a boat? They got slips. I look forward to returning.

Great place to sit by the water and listen to music! The staff is super friendly here, and has always been very knowledgeable and helpful with dietary restrictions. Definitely one of my go-to spots!

This was my first time. I went there to see an old friend ,the whole experience was wonderful and I will be back. The food was great, the drinks were great, and the service was awesome. The band was very good and I don't like most country music.. When they come back I will return. My wife enjoyed herself so much. I want to bring other friends next time.

Had a great time, parking is a living nightmare on a busy night. But definitely worth checking out! Doc Martin and the Flanels absolutely killed it on stage! Great show, good drinks and the security and staff were all great! Looking forward to my next visit!

Came in last night with my family, the fries were soggy but the service was excellent (made up for the food). Bella was our server, was very attentive, even said congratulations to my baby for graduating kindergarten, he was so excited that a “pretty girl” has congratulated him. I believe the manager Courtney came over, she was super sweet too! Everyone we saw had a smile on their face. The music playing was very good, definitely will be back with our boat this summer.

First time here. The wait was crazy long. We waited 2 hrs. But once we finally got seated and ordered the food was delicious, especially the ahi tuna appetizer. Food came out fast.
