Although it wasn't very busy, service upstairs was fairly slow, and several nearby tables also seemed to be waiting a while for food or checks. For drinks, we ordered the Boardwalk Lemonade, which was sweet and refreshing, and their version of an Aperol Spritz, which had a beautiful presentation. My dad's Baked Brie Burger was delicious--the fig jam paired perfectly with it, and the waffle fries were fried to perfection. I ordered the Mr. Beautiful Burger, which tasted great at first. Unfortunately, I felt VERY sick almost immediately after eating. I can't say for certain what caused it, but since my dad didn't try my burger and felt fine after his meal, I suspect mine may not have been cooked properly. Despite that, I enjoyed the atmosphere, drinks, and overall experience. I'd definitely give this place another chance, though I'll skip the Mr. Beautiful Burger next time.

For my entrée I had the strip steak with Frites. I'm not typically a steak person, but this was amazing. You could literally cut it with a fork. Delicious. My husband had the pan seared scallops and said they were wonderful. Our other friends had fish dishes and said they were top-notch. The desserts were delicious. We had banana Foster, flourless chocolate cake, cheesecake and crème brûlée.Flawless. Chef Bass came over to our table and was so friendly and lovely. After we ate all of this mountain of food, he found out that my husband loves pasta Bolognese. He ran into the kitchen and insisted my husband try some lol it was great. Just a wonderful experience as far as service and delicious food and wonderful caring ownership.

This is the first time I've ever been to Shipwreck Grill, which is crazy because I've grown up in…read morethis area. I've always heard good things, and I thought the food stood up to the reputation. The restaurant was packed on a Monday night, which was probably a good sign for what led to a delicious meal. I really enjoyed the roasted oysters topped with yummy breadcrumbs. My daughter enjoyed a sushi appetizer and wedge salad with blackened tuna that she claimed was delicious as well. Our other dinner partner enjoyed his halibut. I really loved the show-stopping, gigantic jumbo lump crab meat risotto. It was very filling, but super delicious. The food was rich and, in some ways, basic, but executed perfectly. I added some of the street corn and that really made things even better get this dish. You won't be disappointed. The atmosphere was busy, if not hectic. Our table was in the middle of the room, next to a large family with little kids. One was seven months old and the other was two. That seemed like a bit much for a dinner with these price points. It's not an inexpensive restaurant and certainly not a family-vibe Houlihan's. We had mixed feelings about the atmosphere, but I kind of thought it was cool--a really pretty building with some rustic charm.

Hostesses (x2 because evidently seating people is a 2 person job - although neither girl could formulate a full sentence). 8:30pm Sunday - "there are only seats at the bar; we've stopped seating outside". Management. If this is true GREAT you have some monotone bland children holding down the fort. If you want business and your staff to work - I'm sad to say they turned down a nice group of 30-50 year olds ON A MONDAY (which is huge for us). Lackluster. Lazy. Underwhelming. Find some more chipper front of house staff. Maybe anyone who looks up from their phone first and knows to say hi and welcome!

It quickly got packed though so get there early. The Summer Burrata was fresh and delicious, although it's better for 2 people, not made for sharing well. The Volcano Shrimp had great flavor with the perfect sweet and spicy kick, but the presentation could use a little more creativity- there wasn't even a bed of greens under it. Our entrées were great. The special Herb Crusted Rack of Lamb was tender and flavorful, the Coconut-Crusted Halibut was fresh and perfectly balanced, and the Broiled Crab Cakes were a standout, packed with jumbo lump crab and virtually no filler. The Pineapple Coconut Spritz was refreshing and tropical, and the Golden Hour cocktail was a unique bourbon and limoncello combination that was surprisingly delicious. Great food and a lovely outdoor dining experience.
