   Everything is only fair at best. Service is surprisingly bad - how do you have wait staff who know nothing about seafood?

   A few menu options weren’t available but what u did end up ordering was really tasty and fresh. The wait staff was very friendly and accommodating.

   We had 7:30 reservations and were immediately told it would take a while because the kitchen was understaffed. Our waitress tried the best she could and the food was good but we were t served until 9pm. There didn’t appear to be any management on hand to handle the situation. We asked for bread to hold us over and were told that was only for customers ordering entrees. 3 of the 6 of us ordered entrees. 4 of the 7 meals were brought over before our oyster appetizer arrived. The other 3 meals were brought out 15 minutes after the other entrees had arrived. It’s a shame because the food was good and we like th atmosphere. Pier needs a major training and management overhaul.

   We never got to eat the food b/c they didn’t even start our order until 40min after we placed it. Took 20min to get our drinks.

   The oysters and mussels were very good but the overall experience was average. Service was slow. Calamari and crab cakes were not quite up to par. We will return for oysters and mussels. As an aside, the waitress that checked us in for our reservation cancelled our reservation in error. Open Table representative corrected the error. Thumbs Up to Open Table.

   Despite a reservation, table wasn't held. Service was extremely slow. One of the bartenders had to work tables, and everything bar related fell to one person, but the whole evening took entirely too long. Our food and appetizer arrived simultaneously. Food was ok, but the sauce for the calamari tasted of canned tomato paste and a few herbs/spices.

   Ate last Saturday night. Restaurant was full with a few couples waiting. Food was really good when it finally arrived. Kitchen was way backed up, and wait staff was short at least a couple of people. Fortunately our waiter warned us that the kitchen was backed up so we waited because we were in no hurry. The new manager came by and apologised to everyone for the wait. He had been on the job only two weeks, and promised to get things in balance as soon as possible. He seemed competent and sincere. Will definitely give it another try.

   I should’ve given prior poor reviews more credit. Food was average except the tuna nachos. Pricey for the amount. Kitchen is extremely slow as if it was intentional so that we would order more drink. Our waitress, Armani, was attentive, however. She kept apologizing for how long it took us to get our food. Would not go back, even with way discounted groupons.

   I eat out way too much. Travel for a living. I also was a corporate trainer for a well known restaurant group. The service; I watched our waiter scramble while others simply watched. No concept of food runner or team. My daughter ordered a dish that was no where near the capacity (1/2) maybe 1/8th of what it should be.Ordered another set took so long we canceled yet another waitress walked up holding the dish. Said we canceled and she then responded condescendingly. Requested something off the menu, liked dish but add protein. Didn’t happen. No management in ear or eyesight. I highly suggest avoiding. Bar staff and hostess seemed very friendly. Hopefully they can easily find employment elsewhere once this place shuts its doors. Table service was less than mediocre food was a solid 3.
