"We went on a Wednesday evening around 7. They were already book for reservations, we called earlier. We took our chances and our wait time was about a hour, but we were able to enjoy cocktails at the bar. The bartender was great! I believe his name was Shawn and our waitress Carson was just as great and super knowledgeable of the menu. We were able to be seated outside on the water and even spotted a couple of dolphins. The food was also delicious. I had the shrimp and grits, they weren’t your traditional shrimp and grits, but hands down the best I’ve had in a while. I definitely give this restaurant experience a 10 out of 10."

See Below for pros and cons. Attended a large party luncheon. Everyone was disappointed with the food. Service was good. #Veganuary

The staff was sweet. But, the food was mediocre. There was literally no seasoning and we waited over an hour for food. The scenery is great.

The staff was friendly, but the food was average. It lacked seasoning and we had to wait over an hour for our meals. The view from the restaurant was beautiful. View menu

To be fair, it’s a seafood restaurant. There were not many options.. most include salads.. and ask for no cheese or bacon. I opted for the veggie penne and subbed the herb butter sauce for garlic herb oil. It was pretty good. The **** Mary was good but I had to ask for no shrimp. Server was great.

In all fairness, this is a seafood restaurant with limited options. Most dishes come with salads, and you can request no cheese or bacon. I opted for the Veggie Penne with a garlic herb oil sauce instead of the traditional butter sauce. It was quite tasty. The Bloody Mary was good, although I didn't need to ask for a shrimp. The server was excellent.

My favourite place along the river also with great service. Our bartender suggested several fantastic selections even a refreshing mojito for our DD. Love their wine list! 5/27: Today back to lunch and had the shrimps. Daughter had fried catfish flour, man had smoked salmon. Great service and fantastic food. Her shrimps (fried yarn cake is one of the best I ever had. View menu

The outdoor seating area is huge. The view is absolutely beautiful. We ordered the crab peel and the laundry board for appetizers. They were both delicious I just wished that the charcuterie boars had more food for the price. I ordered the fresh catch that was Snapper and I asked it grilled with garlic butter it tastes fantastic! Overall, this is a great place to eat!!

Enjoy our meal on the closed terrace. Server was very helpful to recommend the better offers. We were offered a sample of wine to make sure that we liked our selection... which has led us in a better direction. Low Country Spring Rolls were amazing as the Shrimp Scallop Scampi and Sweet Potato Grouper! Perfect evening, with the exception of something rudeness from the hostess who leads us to the exit. Hostess must be a stressful job! We're coming back!
