    Oysters great as always. Order one course at a time or your app will be sitting next to your entree. Beer not very cold, glasses not chilled. Not like it used to be…. Leave it for the tourists!

    We visited here because of the exceptional reviews. Absolutely delicious! The staff were so kind and helpful. One staff member to told me that they refer to their guests as friends. Well, we just met our new bestie. Y’all! So amazing! I had the seafood in parchment and my husband had the steak. Chef’s kiss!!!

    Good food, and the first GF crab cake I’ve ever had from a restaurant that was in the form of a cake, not a deconstructed pile of crab meat. Yay!

    We were seated quickly and Darrell (a recent Virginia Wesleyan graduate) was our server. As always, service here is exceptional. We have been coming here for years, and have sometimes cancelled reservations elsewhere just to enjoy another meal here. My husband salmon and shrimp in parchment that he raved over. I had gluten free baked crab cakes that were outstanding. The portions are huge, so no room for dessert. It’s a popular restaurant, we recommend reservations for the evening especially over holidays. But you will have a superb meal!
