    Food is really good. Mussels in Cajun sauce was excellent. Shrimp burgers, steak sandwiches, lamb burger, also fantastic. Service is very slow. From the time we sat down to the time we ordered, about 45 mins had passed. Our server was very friendly and helpful, but it seemed all servers were taking on more tables than would make for an efficient experience. Otherwise, we enjoyed our family birthday celebration.

    Great Happy Hour! We had an incredible waitress and service was good. Music was not too loud at all. A lot of space for big parties.

    We had a reservation for 5:30 and we were told we could not be seated and will have to wait. we weren’t given a time that we could be seated. Therefore we left. It was overcrowded and very unorganized. What was the purpose of making a reservations.
