Since it was a nice night,we decided to have our anniversary dinner outside,right on the water.it was a very slow night,so we were seated immediately.The hostess,who I think it 1 of the owners,is always friendly.Our waitress arrived soon to take our drink order.When the drinks arrived,she took our order for dinner.We shared an order of Inlet clams as an appetizer.I ordered the Inlet scallops.my favorite,and my husband had his favorite,the jambalya.Great as always.

Caught happy hour and enjoyed tasty fried calamari, although sauce was bland. Marie was friendly server here and also outside on the deck Stuffed shrimp had real crab and shrimp special was cooked perfectly. Wished we had been served bread for the sauce. Didn't notice they had it until finished so do ask. Great place now that the rush of summer is past.

Today my wife and I had raw clams and steamers for appetizers. They were amazing and very fresh. I had lobster roll and she had seafood duo. Food is always good here and it's our favorite place we love it. We always come here with our family too.

Wonderful seafood including everything from calamari, crab cakes, and shrimp to flounder to jambalaya. The place is a little funky at first glance; but the chef is superb. And the outdoor seats in cooler summer days are relaxing under umbrellas, even if the tables aren't immaculate. Great food and view with down to earth, unpretentious staff. Great place to go at the end of a busy day.

What can I say? I'll start by saying the view is excellent...right on Sandy Hook Bay. There is a dock for boats to tie up and come aboard the deck as well. There is indoor seating as well as the fabulous outdoor deck which seats many. There are tarps and umbrellas for shade and usually a nice breeze. The service has always been spot on and the food very good. We usually go for lunch and I've never been disappointed with their wraps and sandwiches. Good portions as well. We've gone for dinner, and only once my food came out not as ordered (tuna, under cooked) and I didn't say anything, but our wonderful waitress noticed and took it off our bill. So, if you're looking for a place to eat lunch or dinner on the water, with excellent service and good eats, then look no further. Also, dinner on the weekends can get pretty packed so my suggestion is to get there earlier then later. You won't be disappointed.
