    Food was good. Service slow and at not around much. Very slow to order. Had to go find a pitcher of water and pour our own even after asking for more. Food came out quickly and was good.

    The seafood dishes were good. We had the crab cakes and tuna. I would not recommend the wings (dry). This is a busy dinner time spot and raucous but the servers were very nice and helpful. So, go for the fun and crowd. The bathrooms were sketchy.

    Our server worked his tail off on one of the busiest days of the year! The boat parade. Our table location was great. A great evening.

    Really delightful experience. Just had appetizers and cocktails before we headed out for midnight madness, but will definitely come back again for lunch or dinner.
