    Awesome food and excellent service! Or is it excellent food and awesome service? They’ve made some changes- some good and some not so good but tolerable. But they haven’t changed the great service we get every time we are there. I wish they would put the fish and chips back on the happy hour menu!

    Tasty food, pleasant and efficient staff, and it looks like the inside of a wooden sailing ship! What’s not to love?

    Menu was overhauled and reduced significantly. The Bouillabaisse, an Oyster bar favorite for decades, has been taken off the menu. The Seafood Extravaganza is also gone. There is a chiopinno option but the portion is reduced as well. Po'Boy sandwiches are available for $28 each. It does come with slaw or fries, but the amount of shrimp on the sandwich was pitiful, amounting to 5 fried shrimp. They still have the pan roast options and the taste hasn't changed. We are on a Friday night and it was dead by 8pm. I would say that the menu overhaul was disappointing and the increased prices didn't match the items served. Let's hope the new managers/owners receive enough feedback to bring back the staples that we all love.

    A very lovely dinner place but can get very busy so make reservations ahead of time. We came on Valentine’s day so it was packed but the food was still delicious and service was really trying to keep up with high demand. They didn’t forget any of our order and they were very kind.

    We thought we were lucky to get a reservation for Valentine’s Day. The wait was so long even with a reservation. There were people in line ahead of us who were seated before us without a reservation. By the time we got to the front of the line we were 20 mins past our reservation time. The hostess told us we would have to wait as there were no tables available. We told her that she just let the couple in front of us be seated who did not have a reservation. And they even said they didn’t have one. And that we saw that she did not verify anyone’s reservations by names. We asked her what was the point of making a reservation if she was just seating anyone in line. She got upset and said they overbooked and that they don’t have a list of guests who made reservations. What kind of service is that? Another lady stepped in and told us that there’s a table in the lounge if we wanted it. We took it as we’ve been waiting and service was horrible and slow. One waitress serving that entire area by herself. Food was okay and drinks tasted so watered down. We will not be coming back here.

    Valentine's Day - the Restaurant was very busy - Our reservation was honored almost immediately. We dined on Lobster Raviolis, a Seafood Cocktail and Fries. Everything was delicious and Carmen provided great service.
