    Superb service and excellent meal. Our waitress was professional, accommodating, and attentive. We had the mussels as a sharable and was served with extra plates, forks and bread. No empty glasses. The bar fills up with noisy geriatric barflies so next time we will dine farther away from that.

    Our dinner was excellent but it was apparent during this past busy weekend that the staff were stretched thin and it took longer to get our food as well the wrong drinks corrected. I also did not get a detailed bill to know whether or not we were being charged correctly-just a total! Hope they can do better. Great location.

    Absolutely fabulous! The best restaurant in Beaufort. It was my wife’s birthday and she had the halibut and I had sushi. Everything was great.

    Steak was overcooked but server offered to remake it which my friend declined, the server took a percentage off the bill and gave us a free desert to rectify the situation which was appreciated. Overall good experience and would come back.

    The halibut was very good. The parking was public and it was $15 for two hours. It was too much for a small town restaurant.

    We ate outside and it was perfect. Cool and a night breeze even in the middle of summer. Service was outstanding.
