Kim HolstNovember 9, 2014Yum!! Lobster roll and ceviche are delicious! Clam chowder was very tasty with lots of big pieces of clam and not overloaded with potato.
Kendo K.February 9, 2015I love the rock crap here. The soup in the bread bowl is delicious. The atmosphere on the beach is relaxing. Heated outdoor seating. I got cut by crab shell, no bandage available.!?
Leanna D.July 1, 2016Really good beer battered fish taco! Jasmine rice with it is a little unconventional but I'm not complaining bc it's good
Abdulrahman FetyaniApril 15, 2019I been here just to eat whole lobster, I loved the taste of salted water in it, like they cooked with ocean water. Real seafood here.
- Kelley L.October 19, 2024Great place to eat at the pier. Can't go wrong with their lobster roll and fries.
Phil NacionalesSeptember 7, 2014Nice beer selection and the shrimp are huge. The venue has an awesome story behind it... Ask one of the staff about it.- Cathy S.October 21, 2017Good beer selection, awesome customer service, quick to get a seat, and fun people watching.
Manilyn SMarch 18, 2013Try the Spicy Seafood Soup - $23 but worth it! Fresh seafood: different fish, shrimp, squid, mussels etc. Loved it!
OZDecember 20, 2013GREAT beer special.......sit on the patio, listen to good music, watch the sunset.
Kenn KimNovember 4, 2014Clam chowder was good going down but sat with me for a while. Chicken tacos lacked any significant flavor but was fresh. Water and unsweetened ice tea are on offer gratis.
Cheese CottonJune 26, 2016So pricey, good portion, though it tastes just okay:( Mussels are salty and lobsters are chewy
The patio is one of the better places to sit and listen to Pier concerts. Poor sightlines, but a good beer selection, OK food, and haz benches.
- Tom HallAugust 30, 2013If you come for the Pier Concert expect to wait up to 20 minutes for an $8 beer. Management has really lost control of this place. Blind Mice could run this eatery better. Go to Rusty's next door!
Márcio VenturiOctober 2, 2016Good beer but the food is disappointing. Shrimp with chips is dry and farm raised. Oysters were ok. Big prices for average food.
Rob LJuly 2, 2013What a dump with a moron Manager. Waited 45 mins for super expensive fried crap (fish chips, burgers, fries & nachos) and still no food. Manager says there's nothing he can do.At least I got a refund!
Alberto J S Moreau DNovember 25, 2016The food is good but it is over priced. While you choose the food you can not see prices, the surprise is when you are going to pay
Paula BaldassinOctober 18, 2016Peça o dungeness crub! Sem palavras! O melhor que já comi....muito bem servido com maionese e milho. Top 😎
