Yum! I ordered in the store for take-out around 2pm today (Friday). It was very busy but some bar seats open. The staff member was so kind and allowed me to sit at the bar as I waited. The food came out much quicker than I expected. I got back to my car and took a peek at the crab roll. A peek turned into me inhaling that delicious creation before starting my car. I ate the clam chowder & crispy bread about 40 minutes later. Still warm & delicious! I will be back, again and again! Love this gem....

Love this gem. Excellent clam chowder, great Dover and chips, love the salmon belly dip. Their sandwiches are great too! Gets crowded during the weekend but worth the wait!

This place has good food, 100% recommend it. Bad thing first: limited seating which usually results in a line out the door, but it's worth it. Now for the good thing: Since the setting is so casual, I feel that the prices are definitely great for how good the food you get. I've had the fried muscles and the albacore tuna sandwich and they were both amazing. I also had the chips and tuna dip, but that was ok. Good, but definitely skippable if on a budget.

We had an absolutely delicious meal here and loved everything we tried! We ordered the rockfish banh mi, a flavorful dish of cod with spinach and rice, and some perfect fried oysters. Every item was excellent and cooked just right. I can definitely recommend this spot for fresh and well-prepared seafood.

Nice quaint local food place. Nice choice of seafood. Limited menu for people who do not eat seafood. I did not go on the weekend, but may need to go back as their famous dungenous crab roll is served then.
