No long-line fish here-just hook, rod, and reel. If it's any fresher, it is still in the gulf. Most of our cooking revolves around our oak and citrus fired open pit, which sears at an extremely high temperature and adds a delicious smokiness to everything grilled. You'll find an abundance of fresh herbs and only the best quality seasonings. Fresh vegetables are used throughout our menu, and all soups and sauces are hand-prepared. We are also proud to provide an excellent selection of the worlds best oysters flown in fresh for your enjoyment.

For such a small unassuming venue when you enter your are immediately immersed in the atmosphere quiet dark and inviting the staff quickly attend to our reservation and had our party seated with no issue. Our waiter laid the menu and explained everything in detail, including the butter was made. The sommelier was on his game. We had an excellent evening and ended up going back the next night. Highly recommended

We frequent this place as the food is amazing and the service is great. We enjoy the music but if you want a quieter place - ask for a table inside and not on the patio.
