    The food was amazing especially the oyster selection which we had a sampling of multiple grilled. The steak was cooked to perfection. Our server, Josh, was the best! He was attentive and went above and beyond to accommodate and make it a delightful experience for my daughter’s birthday. I would strongly recommend this restaurant and will be back.

    I made a reservation for 2 at 5pm a while ago. We arrived at 4:45 pm. When I checked in at the hostess stand I was told my name was on a waiting list as they don't take reservations but here I am making comments to my Open Table reservation that they don't take. A bit strange to say the least. First time I have heard from an Open Table vendor that they don't take reservations when I clearly made one. The meal was great and appreciated the Fish House being open on Christmas.
