    Traveling from San Francisco…on Christmas Eve…. We didn’t even expect to find a restaurant open let alone serving with joy and enthusiasm! Not sure which shined harder…the food or the service! Both were extraordinarily exceptional! We got the tasting menu for a price we would never had expected in an SF restaurant! It was a steal! But our wonderful server informed us we didn’t pick from each course…we got ALL the plates in each course. We were like: uhm…I know we are two decent sized guys but we are not a small army. She said the plates were small! And that is the only complaint I have. She said the plates were small! She lied! Virtually every plate was an entire meal! Sooooo much food. And all of it so good, we couldn’t stop eating! It was crazy! And it was all for a fraction of the cost of a comparable meal in San Francisco! One of the top 3 restaurants of my life!

    all of the most amazing meals we’ve had in a long time. The crabcake is highly recommended is a giant lump of blue crab with some Panko breadcrumbs. lobster mac & cheese is amazing with giant chunks of lobster. The 8 ounce fillet was cooked exactly the way it should be as a medium with plenty of flavor and juice in the middle. oysters were nice and tasty. Did not taste old or have a stinky smell to them . ambience was perfect and the staff was extremely attentive. Met the owner, the GM and the AGM all good dudes. Excellent service highly recommend recommend
