The Charboiled oysters are a favorite! They are so so good. The bread was also delicious. The shrimp loaf is a must. The crab dip is so so and the bbq shrimp is pretty good, I’ve had better. The staff was amazing, our waiter was amazing I believe his name was Paul.

Everything was absolutely amazing. Our waiter was so accommodating and understanding. The food was incredible. The fish was fresh and beautifully plated. The overall ambiance of the restaurant makes you feel as though you are dining in a movie. I recommend booking a dinner reservation. The ambient lighting, jazz music, and magical views of the cityscape create an enchanting, and intimate feel hard to replicate!
