    They sat us at a table not big enough. I brought it up to the server who said it was the biggest available for our party of three. We ordered the large seafood tower ($150) and my wife ordered a filet medallions ($32). I had asked the server if the table was big enough for the tower and he assured us it was. It wasn’t. Over priced for what you get. Shellfish was mostly flavorless. Should have gone to Ocean Prime like we had planned.

    Best place to get oysters outside of Detroit. Delicious cuisine, great menu, truly enjoyable atmosphere. Always have my birthday here because each visit is memorable!

    Oysters selection was great and the rest of the food was very good, but be prepared to pay a high price, especially for drinks.

    Food was good, service very good. As soon as we finished paying our bill, hostess came to table to tell us we had to leave since they had other reservations. We were finished and paid in 60 minutes.

    Oysters were not what we expected. Clam chowder and seared duck was good.
