I'll have to admit.. it seems a bit pricy... but when you see the portions you get, you will understand why. The food there is outstanding if your in the mood for some great Seafood. Ive been going there since was a child, and it never disappoints. Im sure they have something for about anyone's taste.
If you've never been there, you are missing out on a great, casual dining experience. They have indoor and outdoor seating. A playground area for little ones, and a great waiter staff that will take very good care of you.
Side note: They do close for the season near the end of fall. I suggest you call ahead to make sure of their hours of business.
Otherwise, give it a try, enjoy the food and atmosphere.
