Delicious locally sourced seafood. Amazing views out all sides of the restaurant and from the deck. Great services (their waitstaff is always so kind even when we have our kids with us!)
We highly recommend their Sunday brunch, where you'll get to see their resident oyster man hand shucking oysters (brought in that day from the oyster beds 100 yards from the restaurant) in the buffet line.
