We went here yesterday with a party of 9. We were able to get a reservation at the last minute and we were seated right away. Our server was attentive and the food was good. It wasn’t great but the portions were large and the price was affordable! The pasta needed some more flavor, the steak was a little fatty and the fish in the platter was too heavily fried. But the shrimp, crab cake, mussels, fries and fish tacos were very good!

This was a great, dog-friendly restaurant - right next to the beach in Assateague. Their happy hour food menu is amazing! Great for families, dog friendly on the patio & they even made a chicken breast for my pup which he loved :) Service was solid and the food was great. Crabs were delicious. Highly recommend the crab and avocado salad!

As an appetizer we got the crab dip bowl it was alright not enough crab in it. Crab cake factory was better. My daughter got the fried shrimp basket with a drink for $10 which was a good deal. My grandmother got the seafood pasta. She thought it would have an Alfredo but it was just a butter and the scallops were way over cooked. I got the calamari which I returned because they don't serve the tentacles which are the best part and it should have been fried more. That got taken off the bill by the waiter. I also got the crab soup which was spicy and again not enough crab in it. The strawberry daquir I got had no flavor tasted like it came out of a machine and poured liqour in it which made it watery. The server could have came by the table more often to check on us. The music they have playing couldn't be heard at the table
