"Just what we were looking for after a few hours out sailing! Customer service was wonderful from Joey and the kid with the blonde hair :) We ordered the classic fish and chips and Boston clam chowder. The fries were super crispy and absolutely delicious—especially impressed by them."

"This place is great. The food was delicious and they have a great drink selection… wife loved the pomegranate mimosas. The shrimp and grits are filling and flavorful. Been down in this area a lot and didn’t know this place existed. They should advertise more because this place is a standout."
