We went here yesterday with a party of 9. We were able to get a reservation at the last minute and we were seated right away. Our server was attentive and the food was good. It wasn’t great but the portions were large and the price was affordable! The pasta needed some more flavor, the steak was a little fatty and the fish in the platter was too heavily fried. But the shrimp, crab cake, mussels, fries and fish tacos were very good!

We (party of 4) got in just before 12PM and were seated right away. We got our drinks and were set on ordering the AYCE Maryland crabs, but ended up switching to the Dinner for 2 for $78 which comes with your choice of lobster or snow crabs, shrimp, clams, and blue crabs that come with corn and Cole slaw. Definitely worth it since you’re getting more variety of seafood. The food was delicious, love the amount of butter you’re given. I shake off majority, if not all of the seasoning on the crabs, I find it makes it overly salty for my liking. I’m a fan of Cole slaw, and it was tasty! Slightly sweet and tangy, still crunchy. Both crabs were sweet and fresh, lobster was meaty. Overall, I was happy in the end and would try to visit again if we’re in the area!

This was a great, dog-friendly restaurant - right next to the beach in Assateague. Their happy hour food menu is amazing! Great for families, dog friendly on the patio & they even made a chicken breast for my pup which he loved :) Service was solid and the food was great. Crabs were delicious. Highly recommend the crab and avocado salad!
