    Beautiful place compared to the one in Charleston….at a cost. Very over priced for the food. It was good but not $48 for 12 raw oysters good. Tables are small. Restrooms are very clean. Hostess was kind as can be. Waiter was good not great. Service was very quick so eat quickly to make room on your table.

    This place was great! Peaceful environment. Great service. We had a large party and everything was so smooth. Had the open face crab melt and it was super delicious. Also had some calamari, oysters (which were super yummy!) shrimp, and the lump crab cake appetizer in lemon sauce. Everything was so delicious. Would definitely recommend this place.

    Food is fresh, well prepared but significantly overpriced. Few selections other than seafood. Vegetarian options very limited. Good bread. All sides can be interchanged which is nice. I had succotash instead of chard, but there were hard pieces of carrot that weren't well cooked. I was attempting to order soft foods due to dental issues. Still broke a fragile bridge. Dessert menu limited. Fruit, mousse and lighter options would be nice. Alcohol choices were plentiful. Cappuccino had an earthy taste.Difficult to find server at times resulting in delays of service beyond relaxed dining. No daily specials. Hard surfaces that reflect sound make it fairly noisy. Decor is retromodern and innovative. This was second visit. Not eager to go back as I'm not big on fish but my companion's shrimp were reportedly good.

    Service was very slow - food was just okay - and prices were very high for the food quality.
