Fish Fry on Fri is not good-very gresy and a lot of breading and very little fish!
Parking is horrid they make you valet park and want a $5 tip!Supposedly it is free.
Are you kidding me? Nice atmosphere. Nice location. Friendly waitress. Slow service. Food mediocre at best. I had lobster stuffed catfish and he had seafood fettuccine; mine was overcooked by the chewy texture of the fish and his was more of a garden vegetable fettuccine with the huge carrot medallions and veggie tray sized cauliflower -- not at all in the menu descriptor. Pricing unfortunately didn't match our expectation.
Scallops are excellent, the setting is pretty cool, nice view, and prices are okay but to be expected when dining in this downtown area on the water. If your not carefull on what you order you could have a high bill, but I would definitely bring people here when in the area
