Over priced, not impressed. I ordered the lobster roll that made me question if it was imitation "krab" meat with homemade chips.($32) Their signature feature are beignet style hushpuppies...Not a fan($9)! Hushpuppies should not be sweet with powdered sugar! My friend ordered red fish. It was a 4oz square in butter with caper relish ($32) It was much better than my lobster roll, but did not come with a side! He ordered a side an Indian twist of fried rice ($10), a chef's leftovers creation. Service was ok. Servers were nice and friendly.
