The host told us there was a 20 minute wait which was fine, but we ended up waiting for 45 minutes. I'd rather a host tell me it's an hour wait and call my name after 45 minutes rather than tell me the wait is short and make me wait that long. Other than that the service was great and the food was very good once we were finally seated.

The waterfront location is really the only thing that sets this restaurant apart. The view…read moredefinitely adds to the experience, but it feels like the restaurant relies too heavily on it and lets too many other aspects fall short. Parking is very limited, and the wait system is practically nonexistent. For a restaurant that regularly has long waits and doesn't accept reservations, I expected a much better process. The host staff was short and unfriendly with our party of four and couldn't even provide a rough wait time. Service throughout the meal was slow. My water glass had lipstick stains around the rim, which was pretty off-putting. My father ordered a beer that didn't arrive until after our food, and by then we had honestly forgotten he had ordered it. We also weren't given appetizer plates before our appetizer was brought out. We ended up getting up and finding plates ourselves. The food was fine, but nothing memorable. Considering the prices, I expected much better quality. It honestly wasn't any better than what you'd get at a casual fish and chips restaurant. The waterfront view is beautiful, but it wasn't enough to make up for the service, cleanliness, and overall dining experience. Unfortunately, we won't be returning.

They also offer chili - more of a soupy consistency, but doesn't lack the flavor. The chicken noodle soup was a bit salty for our taste, but we liked the bold thick noodles and chunky chicken in this hearty soup. I ordered the tuna salad sandwich on toasted bread - you can add any toppings/condiments you like. It's nice to finally have a standard sandwich a lot in Williamsburg and locally owned which is not a chain. The owner was super kind and open to suggestions and comments. We look forward to seeing this spot grow!

It is a cute place to stop and get something to munch on while your visiting Jamestown. They have quick snacks and some nice sammies & real food to eat if your hungry. My friend got the minestrone soup which she said was very good. There is a patio that you can sit outside & enjoy your food or snacks on a good day. I also took note of the local items they happened to carry like the fudge and the honey. The staff was also nice & helpful. A solid place to visit in the Jamestown area when your in need of a quick bite or drink.

And, the most inexpensive and satisfying museum meal we had on our trip! I liked that they had options for your side with your sandwich and you were not just stuck with potato chips! As a vegan, it was nice to see a vegan option on the menu and it was so tasty I took a picture of the menu so I could try to recreate it at home! If you are stopping at the museums at Jamestown - give this place a try!

The staff is consistently gracious and accommodating, which really sets them apart from other restaurants that seem to dread large parties. Even on a busy Friday night, we were seated in under thirty minutes. Our waiter was friendly, attentive, and handled multiple tables with ease. He stayed on top of our orders and refills, and he took allergies seriously, checking with the kitchen to make sure certain dishes were safe. That level of care is always appreciated. As always, the food was excellent. I usually go for the crabcakes, but this time I tried the special, a crowned salmon, and it was so tasty. They truly do seafood well here, and the portions are always hearty. Every experience here is consistently great. The atmosphere is welcoming, and the manager even stopped by our table to check in, which was a nice touch. I always recommend this restaurant to anyone visiting Williamsburg.

It's a long drive into the middle of nowhere to a very charming beachfront town but it was a dreary and rainy day. We easily parked in the large gravel lot and walked inside and were immediately sat at a table by the water with a lovely view. Our waitress was prompt and super friendly. We chose to get the crab hush puppies and were thrilled to see they were made fresh and hot to order and tasted phenomenal. We devoured them quickly. We decided to split the fish taco meal since it was lunch for us and it came with two large-sized tacos and cole slaw. It was a nice portion for an entree and was easily enough for both of us for a lighter lunch. Really delicious sweet tea so I took some to go. Small gift shop attached and tons of seating inside and expansive views of the water with a back wall of windows all around.
