   This was a lunch visit and very satisfying. Crab cakes were delicious. I love the scallop sliders but preferred the way they used to do them, with shredded fried onion slivers. Caesar salad with the addition of shrimp was spot on. Particularly appreciated how efficiently our server got us through lunch as we were headed for a flight home.

   Simply put this place is chaotic and out of control. Nothing nice about. And the receptionist is beyond rude continually apply her lip gloss as she talked to you. This place is like a McDonald’s play house

   Highly recommend this restaurant We were a family of 10 and received the best meal and service of our vacation. Our server was friendly attentive and fun. The food was outstanding. There was live music that was enjoyable as background music. Not too loud and a talented musician. Only problem is they are so popular you need to reserve long in advance but well worth the effort.
