2.0 of 5 stars. After I had the combo; crap, shimp, sausage, 1/2 corn of the cob and a few small potatoes.........I was still hungry even after the bill! Oh well, we live and learn.

Great location

Good place to take the family. Food is good and the staff is friendly. Its located in a central area and right on the water.

Not the greatest

Definitely a place to go once. Food is not the greatest, service can be slow, and the prices are ok.

Ive had better

They shouldnt be allowed to sell seafood. The way that they have abused it and put it on the plate should have been a crime. The shrimp I had were small. The salmon was dry. I had to cover it with cocktail...

Try somewhere else

If you like cheap frozen seafood then this is the place for you. The waterfront location is good. The food is horrible and overpriced. Kids will enjoy the atmosphere
