"On a quiet Tuesday night, I found myself at a restaurant with confused staff who seemed unsure of my presence. The portions were generous and the staff was friendly, although the food was average - not particularly good or bad. The staff, while pleasant, seemed unfamiliar with the menu and frequently had to consult the chef for orders, while another server was preoccupied with their phone. The rice pudding dessert was disappointing, resembling a bowl of milk with minimal rice and a bland taste. The extensive menu seemed overwhelming, both for customers and staff, who could benefit from focusing on a single concept. The presence of a club within the restaurant, which resembled a Chili's, was perplexing. After reading reviews on Facebook and observing an intriguing interaction between the owners and a guest, I wouldn't be surprised if there was more to this place than meets the eye."

The food is very tasty and delicious. Sea food is the specialty of this restaurant. We have ordered Lobster dish, which is excellent in flavor and spicy. The dining hall is spacious and furnishings are nice. I recommend this restaurant who likes traditional sea food.

This restaurant is a terrible place to eat. They overcharge for really bad food, so I recommend that hotel guests and highway patrons avoid it. The 5-star reviews are fake. I paid over $40 for 6 shrimp that were chewy and unappetizing when I visited in March. This place is just weird, and I'm honestly shocked that they are still open. I have warned many people about how bad it is. View menu

My sister went a few months ago and had an amazing experience. We went together and it was awful! Lobsters had almost no meat in them, the oysters had no flavor and the horseradish was old. The King crabs were a light orange/white color and the shells were soggy, so they wouldn 't snap open. That 's a sign of old seafood or frozen seafood. The shrimp cocktail were so small it was a joke, insane! No paper towels in the bathroom and the soap dispenser didn 't work. Was a total bust!

My family visited this restaurant over a year ago as a large group and had a mediocre experience. After a long day of sports, our kids were craving seafood so we decided to return. However, this time everything had changed, and not for the better. The appetizers were served cold, the Lobster bisque tasted sour and overly salty. The seafood dishes were clearly frozen, overcooked, salty, and mushy. The staff appeared disoriented, overwhelmed, and untrained. We had to continuously flag down the servers for drink refills, napkins, and other basic necessities that one would expect when dining out. They never inquired if everything was satisfactory, and by the time they did, we had already returne...
