We went during the week on a Tuesday night. It was not super busy which was nice, yet they were understaffed, the bartender was waiting tables. The food was delicious. A bit oily if you’re concerned about that. Everyone was nice and polite.

Stopped by to try this place out for lunch. Great atmosphere and service. Also a great selection of menu items. I had the tuna poke and it was unfortunately very bland not much flavor to it and it was kind of chewy. I’m looking forward to possibly going for dinner and maybe trying some other items.

First visit and we are locals! Celebrated early Valentine’s Day and opted to take home a strawberry pie for 2. It was delicious and so were our entrees of chicken sandwich and hamburger! Sat at bar and got great service. The manager was also pleasant and working hard as well!

Drinks, food, and service all were fantastic. The grit cake (I know I should be talking about everything else) was absolutely fantastic! Recommend as a side with any seafood plates.

Crab-cake-meal-crusted Grouper with Parmesan Fried Grit Cake and cold-served Asian noodles. I had the Octopus appetizer on a hot plate with a tremendously light but tasty Rum punch. The atmosphere is peaceful but lively with a full bar. Not too noisy and not a far drive from downtown Clearwater. My first time here.

I read many Google reviews before selecting to try it out myself. I wasn’t disappointed but our server was a bit overwhelmed as it was Wednesday and that is half-priced wine night. The bar was full and there were at least two large parties shortly after we ordered. The biggest disappointment was they changed Happy Hour to end at 5:00 p.m. instead of 6:00 p.m and the website didn’t reflect the change so we barely missed Happy Hour. The oysters Rockefeller was the highlight for me. The steak tender bites were good but almost cold. We both had the crab-crusted salmon with vegetables and the grit cake. Again, the temperature of the food was not as hot as it should have been. All-in-all, I was a bit unimpressed because our bill with a cocktail each, wine, appetizers and entrees, tip was a grand total of $165.00.

We had the lobster bisque and the steak buns for dinner and the chocolate cake for dessert. The food was excellent and the bartender Savannah was quick and super sweet. I would definitely recommend

The best sea food place in Tampa, their Shellfish fries and Cobia fish are really delicious!
