    It was fair. The restaurant was understaffed which may have been a function of the time of day. Great location and concept.

    We’ve had great meals in the past at the point but not usually after a game. I’m glad we made reservations and got to our table quickly. Oysters were excellent and we wound up doubling up and adding a bottle of Chardonnay (which was reasonably priced. What I noticed was how the staff was hustling to accommodate a large crowd. No one standing still. Our server Darwin, was one of the best we’ve ever had, friendly, efficient and knowledgeable, just made the evening great. We’ll be back.

    The food was excellent, the service was excellent, and the ambiance would have been great if it weren't for the football game going on in the background with some loud reactions from others at the restaurant. Once the game ended, everything was good

    Our waitress, Grace, was very attentive. The manager Quentin stopped to welcome us. We had the nauti oysters, crabcake sandwich, cobb salad and the cornbread. While I didn't have any of the cornbread, my friend thought it was delicious and ate nearly all of it. I had the oysters on the half shell -- perfectly shucked and delicious. Get the crabcake sandwich -- NO FILLER! and you really don't need the bun. The view is perfect, nice vibe.
