Every single part of it (I honestly think the marrow in the bones would even have flavor lol) is full of robust flavor and is juicy. You can taste the expertly balanced spices and fruit juices in the marinade and rubbed on the skin. Large portion and the sides were delightful too. The owner/chef came out and introduced himself-so warm and kind. He is very active in the community which just makes it even better. Yall this place is a gem!!! Don't pass it by. Hands down some of the very best food in Lexington. Any other "normal" chicken will never be the same. .

After reading several mixed reviews, we decided to give this place a try . Both my wife and I…read moreagree that the quality of the seafood was excellent. My only complaint was that I ordered chicken tenders to go along with my fried fish. They were overcooked and a bit dry. The restaurant also did not offer traditional BBQ sauce ? I mean even Carolina sauce would be awesome! We received stellar service tonight from Kaitlyn in the bar area. She went out of her way to answer all of our questions. She was courteous, friendly, and extremely efficient. We will return another time because of her. Thanks Kaitlyn! My wife's broiled seafood was amazing and the portions were large enough to afford us lunch tomorrow as a bonus lol We will return !

The downside is that depending on waiter/waitress you may be found waiting for any service 15 minutes upon sitting. We found out in person this exact flaw on the service staff.

It may be small, but it's packed with incredible customer service, warm ambiance, and delicious, mouthwatering food. I was especially impressed with the lobster rolls, the best I've had since Charleston. The lobster was fresh, sweet, and perfectly prepared. And let's talk about the bar! The drinks are perfectly poured and the bartenders are amazing, attentive, welcoming, and they make you feel right at home. Come hungry and be prepared to fall in love with a menu full of savory, scrumptious options. Between you and me, I might just have to try the whole thing.

We were warmly greeted by the hostess, seated at a comfortable table and our server was fantastic!!! We enjoyed the crab dip as an appetizer. It is served with pita bread and was absolutely delicious!!! I highly recommend it. Five My husband had the surf and turd which was served with loaded mashed potatoes and broccolini. The steak was cooked exactly how he ordered it and was a large serving! Five I had the crab cake (which is technically an appetizer) and it was served with corn chowder. It was the perfect portion size for me after having an appetizer. Five I would eat this an appetizer or meal! I also opted for a side of mashed potatoes. Plenty of draft beer and a great cocktail/wine menu. We really enjoyed our visit and look forward to returning! What a gem!

They say they are open until 7pm, but when I arrived at 5:43pm, the door was locked, and the 3 employees inside shoo'd me away. I continued to try to ask why they were closing up, and pointed at the sign on the door saying 7pm, but rather than communicate to me - literally trying to give them money- they just continued to shoo me away. When I pulled out my phone to take a photo of the sign on the door and the two employees inside ignoring me, they both (asian and black guy) ducked away to not be photographed. If that's the kind of employees you have, i would NEVER trust them to safely handle seafood. Now i believe the other reviews saying they found worms in the fish and were ignored by the staff and not helped!
