Second time here the food and service was just as outstanding as the first time. Prices are reasonable and the drinks are great. Nice place to grab a bite with a good atmosphere .
Another great neighborhood restaurant been here a few times and always good. You will love it.
Very laid back atmosphere! The food is very delicious! Definitely feeling the crab cake special. Every Wednesday $15 crab cakes and boy are they worth it. Lumps everywhere... just falling off the cake as you can see. The Firecracker Shrimp had that pop to it that will set the mouth on fire if you attempt to cool it off with soda, lol. I ate the crab cake along side the shrimp and it was phenomenal. A new dish in the making, hint hint. The cream of crab soup had tons on lump crab meat on top and within. 2 thumbs up. Will be returning on a Thursday to check out the ribs special.
Great spot !!! $11 steak night every Tuesday night. 16 oz. New York strip & 2 sides. Was killer ! Good eats. $2 Bud bottles til 6pm. See photos.
Absolutely friendly and inviting pub. From the staff to the local customers this is definitely a place to come hangout, have some delicious food and some awesome conversation. The food was resteraunt quality food no doubt about it. You get very large portions so bring your appetite. The rock fish bites which are considered an appetizer are freaking delicious!! The steamed shrimp were perfectly prepared and not over seasoned of cooked. The garlic parmesan truffle fries were hot, crispy and not greasy at all. My husband's burger was perfectly cooked. Definitely will be back.
