    Outstanding atmosphere and food! We were visiting on vacation and heard from the locals "Get there before they open and get in line." We arrived at 4:30pm, joined the end of the line near the parking lot entrance and were talking to the host by 5:00. We made it into the first rotation of guests and were seated after a 25 minute wait, exactly the amount of time the host had told us. Customer service is top notch right from the get go - friendly, courteous, charming! Our server, Scarlett, was phenomenal. She was great with our kids, thoughtful, and kind, and gave us a first class experience. The food was to die for. We started with the fried pickles and they were gone before I had a chance to snap a pic. The remoulade sauce was the perfect compliment to the salty, tangy pickles. When our 9yo tried her clam chowder and said "This was SO worth the wait," we couldn't agree more. Everything we ordered was perfection - drinks from the bar, bread service, and our meals. My husband and I both agreed that we have never had seafood cooked so tenderly before. He had the mixed seafood grill and I had the scalloped scallops. The scallops melted in our mouths; I didn't know it was even possible! Even the kids' cheese pizza was awesome; the marinara was like no other. Oh, and the kids' daiquiri was so smooth and creamy - we loved them. Fantastic place for a couple, small group, family, or large group! We will definitely be back when we come again. Don't forget to get there early!

    One of few only places I’ve ever given all stars. Excellent steak. Excellent food. Excellent service. Impeccable customer focus. I don’t like eating at any beach, but this place is a place I’d drive 6 hours again just to stand in line at 4:30 to wait in the rain until 4:45 to be seated. Chef HeavyCream Approved.

    We waited an hour for our table and you know what? It was absolutely 💯 worth the wait! I've never had tuna grilled to such perfection ...melt in your mouth delicious! And I've had clam chowder up in cape cod, and the chowder here was heads and shoulders better..so many clams and on point! Our server Daisy was knowledgeable and super attentive even with a packed restaurant...she was such a pleasure! Couldn't have been a better evening for my birthday dinner, ( we didn't tell them it was) everything was on point...even the ice tea!

    Very nice island restaurant. Great handmade food and service was outstanding. The meatloaf is on point for sure. The dessert was cheesecake drizzled with caramel & chocolate and handmade crust. Simple delicious. First time here and experience was outstanding. Ill definitely be back here. A must for island visitors.

    Great food and great service. We come here at least once a year. It’s an atmosphere that you will not forget. The food is always fantastic. You can barely get a parking space at any given time they are open it’s so great. I do want to brag on our waitress tonight though. Moonshine was on her game. Serving in the bar section has to be tough. She handled everything with so much professionalism. 5 starts to Amos Mosquitoes and 10 stars to Moonshine.

    Porkchops were AMAZING!! I got my gravy on the side. The husband had the tuna, and he loved it as well. Vanilla Cheesecake with Oreo bottom was omg. It was on special, so they don't always have it. Keylime pie was good, but the cheesecake was better! Get there early!! Doors opened at 445pm. We got there at 430, and there was already a line in the parking lot. One lady mentioned how sometimes she has to park across the street. When we left the restaurant, there was still a line out the door and in the parking lot.

    This is a staple for every family beach trip. The food is always great and the service is always friendly. This is a very popular restaurant so if you want a table either show up at opening or be ready to wait. The food is definitely worth it. I recommend the meatloaf.

    So good and worth the wait. We are sometimes skeptical of places everyone say you "must go to" because we find they are typically over-hyped, but not this place! First night we got in line at 4:15 and were sat a little after 5. Second night we arrived at 5:30 and were sat within 15 minutes. Both nights the food was super quick, I'm not even sure it took 5 minutes the second night. Everything we had was delicious, so just pick whatever sounds good to you because I'm sure it will be delicious. I also want to compliment the staff and management. Managers (or what I assume to be) run food/drinks, bus tables seat people, and take the time to thank guests. Our servers, Peaches and Daisy, were so sweet and prompt! It's truly teamwork there and it shows! Pictured: crab cake dinner, pork chops, scalloped scallops, ribeye, Malibu colada, chocolate creme brulee, and brownie ice-cream sandwich
