Super good seafood! Had grouper fingers and scallops in bacon for apps then mussels, shrimp and oysters on the half shell. All great. It's a sports bar so very casual and lots of TV's.

Don't let the name fool you. We've lived in the area for a year thinking it was a seafood restaurant. They serve seafood, but I would classify this as a bar setting with a few tables, pool table, video games and smoking is permitted. It seems like a locals establishment with better than average "bar food." There are enough televisions and the bar is large. The prices are low considering the higher quality of food and we will likely go back for an early dinner again. Don't go there expecting a fine dining experience, but if you're looking for a fun, less expensive place with surprisingly good food, give it a try.
