Lobster bisque, Lobster roll was good!
Would suggest ordering the Clam Chowder without the bread since it will soak up all our chowder.
Fish and chips were average.
Great service and atmosphere.

Cheap beer but the food is mid. My $28 shrimp scampi didn't have any noodles. Do NOT order the shrimp scampi! The clam chowder bread bowl was excellent though

Order the claim chowder, lobster bisque, lobster roll, and fish and chips. For 4 pax.

Would recommend the lobster roll and lobster bisque!

Nothing special to make it stand out. Fish kabob was plain tasting, very little seasoning to enhance it. Cocktail sauce is a bit on the spicy side, which I like.

It's a good place to eat, but not more than that.

Atmosphere was good. Island is relaxing. Tacos need just a lil more seasoning. Would go back and try more things.

The food was great. The fried shrimp tacos were delicious. The stuffed lobster was also delicious. The atmosphere in the restaurant is good. They have a lot of cool stuff around and the little dining area that looks like a boat is nice. The servers and busser were all great. It took a little time for someone to come and take our order, but it wasn't terrible. The only issue would be how small it is inside. Overall it's a good place to get a bite to eat.

The place is small and busy. The service is friendly and prompt. The lobster was great, but pricey for what you get. The fish and shrimp tacos were just ok.

The absolute best Mojitos served on the island! Food is great as well as the atmosphere. But them mojitos though, perfect. Visited multiple times out of the week we stayed here and the mojitos held their spot at the top. 10/10 would recommend, especially if you love mojitos and don’t want to be disappointed by one anywhere else on the island!

Great food, great service and great atmosphere. We ate dinner here after a day of sightseeing and a lot of walking. Our house salads were freshly made and delicious. Our baked potatoes and my Mahi Mahi were piping hot and excellent. We were told by a group in front of us that this is where the locals dine and it feels that way. Great atmosphere and a lot to take in and look at while you dine. Would definitely eat here again.

This island restaurant is a hidden culinary treasure! I was blown away by their exquisite clam chowder, and the oysters on a half shell were an unforgettable first-time experience. I'm definitely coming back!

Ok place. A lot of hype but was just an ok place. There were better seafood spots and better priced as well. Lobster prices were sky high for not a lot. Some tables are so close you habe to get out of your seat just to let other people by to get to their table. Not a bad place but over-rated IMO
