This restaurant is seriously so good. We came with friends while attending a show and everything we…read moreordered was excellent. We had the fish and chips, lobster bao buns, grilled Caesar salad with salmon, and a lobster roll with Nashville hot seasoning. The bao buns were small but packed with flavor. I wish the buns were a little softer, but they held together well with the delicious lobster mix. The grilled Caesar salad was fantastic. Fresh dressing, perfectly cooked salmon, and just really well balanced. Honestly, every dish landed. The real star of the night was the Biscoff cheesecake. Big, fluffy, thick, and just the right amount of sweetness without being overwhelming. Absolutely worth saving room for. Service was impeccable, and the music playing from the owner's personal playlist was nostalgic for me as someone from New York. It gave the whole place a really fun, comfortable vibe.

He got snotty and tried to switch us out, saying we didn't have that seating, and another group did. We finally won out, but they were out of things as simple as lemons, and a breaded shrimp plate came with 4 measly shrimp that were obviously something like Gordon's frozen breaded shrimp. After we all began leaving, one of our group's ladies, because of a poor entry exit, tripped and fell due to improper protocol. The owner couldn't care less, and she broke a front tooth, busted her lower lip, and banged up her knee and elbow. All the cashier did was give her some ice. The portions are pitiful. I have never seen a ruder owner ever.

Everything came out hot, well seasoned, and tasted like it was made by people who actually care. The place itself feels like a time capsule from childhood. It reminded me of those slower family meals where nobody was in a rush and sweet tea was basically mandatory. There's something comforting about that kind of atmosphere. What really stood out though was the service. Super down home and genuinely friendly. It honestly felt like I was eating at my aunt's house and my cousin was making sure I didn't leave hungry. Now if you're looking for fresh caught seafood straight off the boat, Jefferson County, TN might not be your spot. But if you want good food, big portions, and a place that makes you feel right at home, this one is worth the stop. Would definitely come back.

My husband and I have been here many times and we've loved it each time. Today, on Mother's Day, my…read morehusband wasn't feeling great so my ten year old son "brought" me for Mother's Day. It was more packed than I had ever seen (I'm guessing due to the holiday). We got there and were told 35-45 minutes and given a beeper. We went to sit in the car since there wasn't really anywhere else to sit. Working five minutes of getting to the car the beeper went off so we shut the car off, got out, locked it and went through parking to the front hostess area. They looked at the beeper and the list and told us they made a mistake so back to the car we went. About 30 minutes later the beeper went off and we were seated near the bar in the last booth by where everyone goes in and out of the bar. Or waited came out and took our drink order and my son had noticed the shark bite cocktail so we asked if they could make a virgin drink. It was horrible. So sweet he couldn't drink it at all. I tried it and agreed. It tasted like a slightly tart sugar water. We didn't complain because we did ask for the drink. Then we ordered our meals. My son got the Gator plate with fries which was perfect and he loves. I ordered 1 1/2 lbs of snow crab legs in a garlic butter sauce (which amounts to 3 clusters). It came with three sides since I ordered an extra half pound. Potatoes, corn and sausage. The seafood bread was amazing! If you go make sure to try it!!! Our meals were brought out. As I mentioned my sons was perfect. I noticed mine wasn't as hot as usual and figured as busy as they were it sat for a bit longer before being brought to the table. I've been eating crab all my life so I'm not new to how to eat it or remove the shells to get to the meat. As I carefully tried to snap the shells, they weren't breaking as they should and there was no getting any meat at all from the first two smaller sections. In the larger sections they wouldn't crack. Tried to use the metal crackers but it just squished it. I used the plastic tool which didn't work ands then used the metal fork. The meat wouldn't come out. It was completely stuck to the inside of the shell where I had to scrape it out with my fingernails. The claws were just add bad. I still kept trying while waiting on the waitress. When she got there I asked how they were cooked and she told me boiled in extremely hot water with fire. I told her what was going on so she went and got gloves and started trying to break my crab open. She wasn't able to get them out either so she went and told the manager. By that time I was done messing with them. He came over and I again explained what was going on. He offered me more cream or a discount. I should've taken the crab and brought them home but I chose the discount. I bagged up the two clusters to bring home to attempt to finish cooking them in hopes they'd be edible. When I got the bill, $7.00 was talked off for over $55 of crab. I felt extremely insulted. That didn't even cover my son's horrible drink but was supposed to make my Mother's Day meal better? We really loved this place but now I don't know if I'll go back. I'm not one of those people that complains all the time. I'm pretty sure if my husband was with me we wouldn't have gotten treated like that. Just an update, I steamed the legs and they came out perfect! I wish I had brought the rest home and just did it myself but since I paid for cooked crab legs I figured that's what I was going to get.

We…read moretried to book ahead of time because we know things fill up during the holidays as well as it being a weekend. Unfortunately we got our days mixed up and our reservation was the following day. However the hostess told us it was not an issue and still seated us right away moving our booking to the correct day. The food came out in a timely manner and our server was very helpful as well. I ordered the seafood lasagna and it was very flavorful. Personally if I were to come back, I'd order another dish that was more filling. The server raved about how good it was and she was correct. It did have a lot of flavor to it. However it lacked seafood in the shells. At some points, I felt as though I was only eating shells and sauce with tomatoes unfortunately. Upon finishing our meal, unfortunately my father became ill after sipping water and going down the wrong pipe. We were so embarrassed seeing as though we were sitting in the middle of everyone dining. However the staff were so kind resulting us that it wasn't the first and dropping everything they were doing to tend to us with wet napkins and checking on my father. While we were deeply embarrassed, it really meant a lot to us that you all made us your priority in that moment and I greatly appreciate you alls service!

If I have one complaint, is that they don't seem to weigh the crab legs before cooking... they just automatically grab one claw for a half pound, and two claws for a full pound. I know when you buy a pound from a store it's always 3 claws... two pounds is 6 claws, etc. Their lack of fairness in this regard may be their downfall, as I've heard others complain about their small crab leg portions. And that would be sad, as their food is otherwise amazing. Please don't nickel and dime yourselves out of business!

Promptly greeted and had drinks on the table. Ordered a dozen oysters - from MA, small but well-shucked/cleaned and were very briny like the ocean. Somewhat expensive at $3.75 each but they were a tasty treat albeit 450 miles from the ocean! Entree was the Chilean sea bass with lobster risotto and grilled asparagus. Perfectly cooked fish with beurre blanc over the top, lobster risotto was luxurious, grilled asparagus on the bottom were good but tough, woody ends could have better trimmed off. Overall, a great experience as we enjoyed the food and our server (Andreas?) was very good and knowledgeable with the menu. Highly recommended!
