Go early, enjoy happy hour, get the shrimp dumplings.

Blue Coast is one of many from the same family of restaurants, and we have yet to be disappointed at any of them. We especially like their Happy Hour. It's one hour only, 4-5 right now (August 2020). They have all drafts at $3, with normally 5 or so to chose from. Some are local drafts and other are staples from great breweries, Bells Two Hearted anyone. They offer a few wines and some cocktails as well $6-$8. And then there's the food. It's fantastic. If you're not sure what to get go with the crab cake and a deviled eggs (or 2) at $13 for the crab cake and $1/deviled eggs, they're a great deal. The crab cake is tons of lump crab, nice and thick, with a buttery brioche roll. If you feel more adventurous the shrimp dumplings are The Best Thing on the menu. So good. I'm not sure what sauce they're bathed in, but it heaven and sunshine. We Also grabbed 2 oyster tacos (special taco do the day), for $6/pair. They were delicious but small. Most people will need 2 pairs to be full at all. Truffle waffle fries at $6 are a solid bet as well. Their Happy hour is at the high tops near the bar and outside only, but it's worth it to get there early and get a great deal on some amazing food.
