    Their dry, bland version of macaroni and cheese in a box is no better than krafts macaroni and cheese in a box.
    Truthful J.

    Tried this place once and the strawberry cornbread was so hard I couldn't even eat it. Also it was nothing more then a tiny rectangle of cornbread with like strawberry sundae topping on it....gross. The rest of the food was meh. My husband wanted us to give them another chance so we tried to go there again last week. We went at 7:30pm and my husband walked in the lady behind the counter said the kitchen was closed even though they supposedly closed at 8pm. We ended up next door at the soul boat where they don't turn customers away before their actual closing hours. Listening to my husband once again today we gave them another try. I got fried scallops, steamed vegetables and macaroni & cheese. The scallops were too salty the breading they use wouldn't even stick to the scallops and they forgot my macaroni and cheese. I sent my husband back to get it and he actually could of left it right there. It was not worth going back for and I will not be going back for nothing else. The Macaroni and cheese was dry, bland and over cooked.

    French fries

    New cook! I saw the previous reviews and was skeptical to try the food, but come to find out they have a new cook and staff. My fish and shrimp platter was fresh hot and good! The fish was fresh flavorful and flaky, the shrimp were large and plump! The homemade tarter sauce is amazing, it reminded me of red lobsters tarter sauce. I will be back!

    Strawberry cornbread which looked like the small cornbread that Sam's Club sell with strawberry jam on top!!!!

People love this place ... I say that because we were there late afternoon during the week and it was busy ... and it kept getting busier. I do understand why folks love it tho, because there's no other real seafood "shack" in the area specifically where folks can get their blue claw crabs. It truly does look and feel like a seafood shack because the wooden walls, brown paper on the table, paper towels on the table and overall decor scream "We are at the beach in a small southern town in the middle of nowhere where" lol Our server was great! She was very attentive and made recommendations... she was also very patient with us given that this was our first time here and we're a bit undecided on what we wanted to order. Now on to the food - this is honestly where I was underwhelmed. The broiled seafood had a whisper of flavor, the crab cake left a lot to be desired and the garlic buffalo shrimp were overwhelmingly buffalo sauce on top of fried shrimp. Now the clam chowder I had was amazing and I even ordered some to go. My friend enjoyed her crab legs meal overall and perhaps if we visit again that's the route I'll go. Oh and it's also a BYOB , so, be sure to grab your favorite bottle and bring it on in.

    First of all the guy at the counter was very rude. We asked him if the platter could be split…read morebetween two people and he said no I will post the picture below of how large the platter was. It could definitely have been split so he lied.second of all it was a little gritty and not as clean as I would like, the bathrooms were disgusting. The corn on my platter was old and inedible. The clams were rubbery and tough. You do go to the counter to get your food yourself, but I figured they would clear the table for us, especially since I tipped them $10 but as I was walking out the door, the counter guy yelled at me." hey you need to throw away your trash!" it was very embarrassing, and I had neatly piled my plates and trash so that it was an easy cleanup and I figured they would have to wipe the table anyway, but now knowing how nasty it is in there, they probably don't wipe the tables. I do not recommend nor will I ever go here again. To top it all off I spent more time in the bathroom afterwards than I would like.

Flounder, scallops, shrimp, clam strips, krab sticks, onion rings. This is what's left after two of us got completely full! I can't believe I didn't get the crab cake picture. It was full of crab. No filler!! Something was off with the coleslaw. It came with two little containers of coleslaw. Mine was really good. Maybe a little sweet for my taste but breaks up the fried food. My husband kept asking me if mine was sour and tasted spoiled. And I kept telling him no it's great. No problem. After he ate some of his he asked me if I wanted the rest. Omg his was horrible. I felt so bad because mine was really good and I thought he was being picky. I had to spit it out. It was definitely a different batch.

Walking in it was lively in the bar area because they were having a trivia night where you can win gift cards. They also have other daily events and happy hours which was great to know. We were immediately seated and our server arrived a few minutes later which was nice bc it gave us time to peek at the menu which is extensive but it was really fun because it's an actual little newspaper which was cute. We ordered the crab dip and a mango martini for me and a blood orange margarita for him of which all three were really good! So much crab dip that we took 1/2 home. And the bread and veggies they serve it with both hit! Entree wise we both ordered items we felt would tell us all we needed to know regarding whether or not they were a legit seafood restaurant - a fried shrimp basket and a broiled combo platter .... BOTH AMAZING! The fried shrimp were MASSIVE and the broiled platter was well seasoned and cooked wonderfully. We had no room for dessert but the menu sounded great. Oh our server was also wonderful! I wish I remembered her name, but she was a tall, blonde young lady with a great sense of humor. So glad our original dinner plans fell through and we finally wound up here - we will be back!

    Service 5/5 Food 4.5/5…read moreAmbiance 5/5 It's my first day back to NJ and when I described the kinda restaurant/food/environment I was directed here and they did not disappoint! Seated almost immediately in a covered outdoors area with a break taking view of the water. The music played lightly in the background tables are adequately spaced apart setting is both practical and upscale so you feel like it's a fine dining experience even at 1 PM in the afternoon; Hostess and wait staff dressed appropriately, but did not have the air of arrogance that most do. Food was appropriately proportionated for price point, complex in preparation/seasoning but staying true to simple essence of the dish that reminds of us home or Nona. Cáprese salad was good 4/5 (tomato type and minimal glaze) but still enjoyed, Paperdelle Beef Stew 5/5 was ORGASMIC, affogato desert 4/5 wasn't on the menu but Alex made it happen and it was everything I needed, and tiramisu 4.5/5 light fluffy not flavored cake but balanced flavorful very good! Highly recommend you're looking for phenomenal Italian food paired with a breathtaking view, look no further. The ambiance is stunning, but what really made my trip was the exceptional service. ALEX was my server not only did he initially accommodate me in a whisper as a phenomenal lasted too long, allowed me to peruse the menu without feeling pressured, was attentive without being over bearing, and most importantly he ANTICIPATED my needs, rather than waiting for me to ask! He is an asset to this restaurant but whilst I brag about my server each of my interactions were exceptional from someone near the bar directing me to the restrooms, the busboys, bread deliverer, etc. see the manager making rounds to other tables ot answering questions about delivery. I'll be back in the near future! Updates to come

But the service that is amazing and all the smiling staff here make up for anything that I don't see on the menu. The place is really well put together and is a very handsome bar it's mostly very wooden and heavy duty. The ambience is something for everyone on the TV or you can just chitchat. They even have this little side room that is nice but beware and bring a coat or a sweater cause it does get chilly in there. They're always seems like a really great group of people there and our favorite waitress is KB/Kristen. She is truly amazing and very attentive, but not annoying. We love their chicken fajitas and steak fajitas, the Cheesesteaks are delish! But My Newest Favorite for the Moment..... is the "We Jammin Burger". It has bacon onion Jam on it and it is amazing! I didn't think that I would like it as Much as I do! But I Realllllllly Do! I'm not really a burger fan... like my husband Is, But THIS BURGER..... has been a Game changer for Me. Warning: Make room in your fridge... because You will definitely bring leftovers home. This meal can feed a family of 4 Easily!! Their Cajun quesadilla is delicious and it does have a nice little zing. Their traditional wings are amazing and their beef stew is delicious and very hearty. We have tried many of their specialties. The Hail Mary is a delicious Caesar salad on top of chicken cutlets and their Broccoli Chicken Cheesesteak is amazing. I recommend you get it pressed on the grill and that way it won't fall out as you bite each delicious bite. I would say 80 to 90% of the visits that we have had at this amazing establishment. We always bring home leftovers. So be aware that you were going to have lunch for tomorrow. You will get to the point where you will just think of something to eat that they have on their menu and your mouth will just start to drool. We definitely recommend going. I'm not a huge drinker so I really can't say much as for their drinks but everyone there seems very happy and the portions are huge. I definitely say try it, what's the worst that happens you have leftovers for the next day or two lol It is my husband and my favorite new place that's been around forever Hey, maybe we'll see you there

    Pros: Our waitress, Alicia, was an absolute sweetheart and made several great food recommendations,…read moreincluding the hot honey wings, Jammin' burger, and chocolate cake--all of which were very good. The portion sizes were generous; both my burger and the Cheesesteak Deluxe were large enough that we brought leftovers home from both entrées. Cons: Unfortunately, the drinks were not good. I ordered a Downeast Cider on tap and it tasted like the line may not have been cleaned recently. My companion ordered a cosmopolitan that was essentially undrinkable--extremely strong and not well balanced. We later learned the bartender is new, so hopefully that improves with experience. The wings were also served cold, and the Jammin' burger came out without the bacon jam that's supposed to be a key part of the dish. The restaurant itself is also very tight quarters. If you prefer more personal space or feel more comfortable in places where it's easy to move around or exit quickly, this may not be the best spot for you. Overall: The staff was very attentive and clearly tried to make things right after several mistakes occurred. They comped our soda, appetizer, and dessert, which we appreciated. However, given the number of issues during one visit, I'm not sure we'd return.

The staff is professionally and helpful. The market is practicing COVID-19 protocols. It's a fish market, when you walk in, the first thing you smell is the fresh fish, it reminds me of fish markets I went to as a kid with my mom. Fresh caught fish is delivered a few times a week, here. When you place your order, you can have the entire order filleted on site! No matter how many fish your order contains.There is the onsite purchase or the call in purchase. There is a small waiting area to hang out while you wait. You can watch your fish order, get cleaned and prepared, while you wait. Once the order is completed, your receipt number is called, pick up your bag and head home! If you choose not to have the order prepared, onsite, you can do it yourself after you get home There is a nice selection to choose from. (Eg. Oysters, Snow Crab Legs). Check out their website, to see what is available. The prices wont empty your wallet. Not bad for fresh caught fish, prepared for you. This is not a restaurant, you cant order fish and have it cooked. Everything purchased is raw, you cook it at home. Cash/Credit/Debit are accepted forms of payment.

The greens had zero flavor which was surprising , and that Mac n cheese is just not for me. It tasty like Alfredo and not Mac n cheese. Too much garlic for my liking and it was a white sauce . I was looking for some cheddar Mac and cheese so maybe a little update on the description is needed there. Make sure people know it's not traditional Mac n cheese and it's Alfredo Mac n cheese. Not terrible but I just don't care for that flavor. The fish was typical frozen variety fried fish. So overall the ribs and rice are great and I would definitely go back for that but $9 for small rice was a little much. Doesn't come with cornbread or anything, I didn't know or I would have ordered that also. Overall portion size was good except for the $9 rice. Good spot for some quick eats !

Bottom Line: I'll continue to explore this menu and update accordingly...after the brisket mac n cheese!
