   We were glad that we had a reservation as there was a sizable waiting line outside. We were greeted nicely and seated within a couple of minutes of arriving. We had water and warm sourdough bread served within 5 minutes of been seated. Our dinners we're delicious and the service was good.

   Daniel was simply an outstanding server. We let him know we were going to be slow 2-top table for him (and would cover his missed tip for the table turn), and he just provided the best and most gracious hospitality for the three hours we were there working through business matters. Food was outstanding as always.

    Horrendous. Eat here 2 times a month or more. Asked for a booth as requested and hostess dismissed immediately. No worries, it happens. Sit down, order 2 drinks and 1/2 dozen oysters. Waited 34 minutes for oysters. I know it is busy but that is beyond pathetic. Then waited another 30 minutes for 3 entrees. My daughter salmon was fine. I ordered lemon bass, baked potato and veggie medley. Veggies were cold and hard, fish was hot but clearly sat under a heat lamp because it was hard as a hockey puck. My wife for fried shrimp and mashed potatoes. Same thing, shrimp was tough and chewy but hot and potatoes had actually developed a skin because they sat under a heat lamp. Have eaten here over 60 times but this was terrible experience.

    We sat outside and our server David was simply outstanding. He should get a 6th Star rating. We were a party of 2, and we were there on a business with much to discuss. David was most respectful of giving us time and always being super graceful. Simply outstanding service.

    John was our waiter and the service was outstanding. He was very attentive and there was no rush. The evening was special because it was my first date with this man and John knew we needed time to get acquainted. It was a special night. My date left John a great tip for his wonderful service that he gave us.

    None of the fish was local which was disappointing. My lobster roll was mostly knuckle meat. Also disappointing. Nice atmosphere and friendly service but if you’re looking for fresh local fish, look elsewhere.
