    Caroline was our server and apparently the only server working today. It was a team effort with the hostess(great personality), manager and bartender all assisting. Bartender made perfect martinis! The atmosphere is tired and needs updating but the food made up for it.

    Not to the level of most opentable restaurants. Food was ok except for the she crab soup which was the best I ever had. Overall a nice restaurant for a beachside eatery!

    From the time we walked in we knew we found a diamond in the rough….Lisi was our server and was extremely attentive and made us feel welcome. We started with the She crab soup and bruschetta both delicious. Veal Parmigiana, Chicken parmigiana and light appetite shrimp scampi were amazing….Will definitely be back!!

    From the chicken parm to my seabass special the food was outstanding! Servers were attentive and friendly. Even though it said oceanfront we were a block off the beach. No worries though, the food made up for it! Definitely try the calamari and bruschetta appetizers. Wonderful!
