    Have been here before and as a local, have recommended this place before but will never come back or return it. Spent almost $300 on only 4 people. The food was mediocre, but that’s not even the biggest problem. We had been sitting at the table for only an hour and a half and were asked TWICE how much longer we were going to be there. If there was a time limit on the table, that should have been communicated before sitting down. We weren’t late for the reservation and they chose to sit us at a larger table. In a town of so many restaurants, you can’t afford to have this kind of service.

    Food was not very flavorful & one person at our table received their plate almost 10 mins after the rest of us.

    Our group of six went before the Charleston music hall concert and we really had a very nice time with abs and drinks! We will definitely be back as a group.

    Our server was amazing- I can’t remember his name, but he was from Ireland. He was great to chat with. Food was outstanding. We had the red grouper and sea scallops and the crab dip for an appetizer. All were excellent!!

    Our waiter Connor was great he made these perfect drinks for us even when they didn’t have our favorite Jim beam. Being a server myself I understand how difficult it can be but he totally nailed it to the cross thanks Connor for a great evening. The shrimp and chicken fettuccine was delicious.”Bulaí fir“

    The food was excellent. The service was great. The location is cool, but could spend a few bucks to upgrade the interior to match the food quality.

    We enjoyed the delicious seafood and our waiter, Justin, was knowledgeable about all the menu options. The wood fired grill gave a hint of smokey flavor to my fish and I loved every bite. Service was top notch!

    I'll be brief. Sarah, our waitress was fine. She was very friendly and responsive. The food and manager's response left much to be desired! It was our first time there so we wanted a good sampling of the menu without committing to a pricey entree. Oyster shotter was aweful Buffalo shrimp was so salty that it was almost inedible and the dipping sauce was pasty and tasteless The calamari was heavily breaded with another tasteless sauce How do you ruin a Ceasars salad, they found a way. The crab soup was the big problem, no crab. It came out cold and after we sent it back it was returned by the manager lukewarm. They definitely lost the opportunity to recover two unhappy customers
