    The food there was spectacular, I brought a friend of mine who was pretty much raised on oysters and muscles was raving how great the platter we had the grand platter and for the price it was top notch. Definitely worth coming back.

    The food was good. The prices were great. I recommend going early in the day because a lot of things were sold out at night.

    Everything we ate was delicious! The lobster bisque and clam chowder were wonderful. The Baja fish tacos were so fresh and flavorful. The lobster paella was amazing! The scallops were incredible!

    Always a special place for us. Charming atmosphere and great seafood. Lobster rolls were fantastic but the other menu items were a bit of a miss…oysters in the Oysters Rockefeller was so small, primarily just shell and cheese, soup was cold, cook should have never sent them out.

    Brandon was our server and was fantastic. The Lobster tacos, delicious. Cocktails took a bit long to come out, but tasty once they arrived. It was a busy night but loved the dining experience.
