Awesome food. Excellent service by Shae. Highly recommend the shareable calamari but be prepared to bring your appetite and share with more than 2 people or you will have leftovers. The shrimp salad sandwich had a very tasty seasoning and the crab imperial was full of jumbo lump crabmeat. We sat outside on the patio and listened to live music on the deck. They also have an indoor dance floor with DJ. Check out the schedule on their website. Come for the food, stay for the fun - you won’t be disappointed!

It was a nice place but prices were a bit outrageous. 175 for drinks ans appetizers for 6 people was a bit steep not including tip. Wouldn't do separate checks sadly. Food was ok nothing to write home about. Drinks were alright - watery a bit much.

We went there for lunch on St. Patrick's weekend (Saturday). It was a bustling place with great live music in the background as we dined in the restaurant. We shared a light lunch of an order of Pretzel Nuggets and Buffalo Chicken Wings. The pretzels with the mustard sauce were phenomenal. The wings had great flavor however I wasn't a fan of the prepared style. They don't have draft beer which is surprising but I indulged in a 12 oz can of Wicked Weed Pernicious IPA. I thought the pretzels ($11) were priced appropriately, the wings ($17) were priced somewhat steep as I believe there were only 8, the IPA was very high priced at I believe $9. Overall it was a great experience being Bayfront.
