January 2, 2026Fran FRandom pick on the bay!
Here for lunch, Random pick. Place was busy at 1:30 in the afternoon! Open seating - got menus quickly. Then it started....waiting. After an extended time we were approached and offered waters. We waited for them. Finally staff came back and took our orders. We waited more than expected for Chowder ($7 per cup) and a simple Shrimp basket ($16.95). chowder arrived and fortunately, it was very good and loaded w/ clams! Just thick enough - it would not hold-up a spoon! Shrimp were plentiful (about 24 "Popcorn" shrimp). Fries were hot and fresh and well salted. overall, food and prices were very good. The ONLY CON was the wait times between service visits. They did tell us they were short-staffed. Maybe that accounts for the delays. We will go back - this time we'll order the bowl vs. the cup! (it looked about 3x the size of the cup for about $2 more!). Place was busy when we arrived at 1:30 and was packed when we left. Good food, good prices. The only prob we had was SLOW service -maybe a full staff will fix that!

Yummy
Stumbled across this little joint and loved every bite of the seafood basket which consisted of fish and calamari. Service was fabulous! Definitely keeping this hidden gem on our go back to list 🙌

Give it a try
My only complaint is that a group of four people sitting next to us were very loud and making racist comments where everyone in the restaurant could hear them and no one said a word to them. They were very disruptive, rude, crude and just plain trashy if I am being honest. The food is bar food so if you are expecting a gourmet meal go elsewhere. The food is good and fairly priced. The staff is very nice. We have been here many times and with the exception of one food server (who is just lazy) the staff is very friendly and accomodating.

July 15, 2024Jill WFOOD POISONING - STAY AWAY!
I should have listened to everyone at the RV Park we were staying at and STAYED AWAY, then I wouldn't have had to go through hell with FOOD POISONING. AWFUL food, service and very DIRTY, can't believe it's even in business. Should be shut down so no one else has to suffer.
