Freshest oysters. Delicious lobster roll. Affordable. They do need 2 servers instead of just the 1 during their busiest hours, but she does her best. No complaints about our last meal in Durham here before flying back home.

Great atmosphere. My sister and I needed food and they definitely delivered! The energy of the staff made us feel as if we were regulars. Will definitely return.

Outstanding fried oysters and fantastic service. I had a late lunch in Father’s Day, so they were busy and it was just me. The bartender/server was amazing. She never got flustered with all of the business; she remained professional and friendly. I have been here many times and will be back again for sure.

A great place for lunch. The waitress is the sweetest person. The food is fresh and delicious. I highly recommend this Durham restaurant. It also has outdoor seating for when we have a nice day.

UPDATED REVIEW: Visited again last night and had a wonderful time. Only one waitress for the whole place (they were about 80% full) but she was on point and handling all the tables with a smile and fast service. She was really a gem. Food was pretty darned good. Wife got a combo steamer platter and enjoyed it quite a bit. I got the low country boil and it was pretty solid (except the corn was pretty mushy... which I have come to expect on most low country boil plates at most places). We will be back. OLD REVIEW: The food was pretty good. I'm guessing they're suffering from the same staffing issues that a lot of restaurants are in that it's tough to find enough help. But even the help they had was seriously lacking. Some guy from the kitchen kept coming out and trying to make things better... Which helped but didn't really make up for the fact that our waitress was pretty absent. So, good food but not a good experience.

Came here with my husband and friends on 12/8 for my birthday dinner and it was absolutely amazing. The waitress named Renee really did an outstanding job! We were impressed how she took care of the entire restaurant that was packed. She took orders with no pen and paper, made our beverages and all with a pleasant attitude! Food was great as well! Definitely coming back!

We were pleasantly surprised by this place. The food and service were great. Overall, it was a bit pricey, but I would still recommend it.
