Customer Reviews

"Great food and service in a very unassuming atmosphere. Family oriented restaurant, not "fine dining" but good menu, seafood done very well and creative specials. Had lunch here, will definitely plan a family dinner here soon. Lobster Bisque was top notch, my wife's corned beef Rachael sandwich was wonderful. Snatched a shrimp from my daughter which was also very well done and she crushed the whole thing."

"This place had good reviews so we stopped in. The only waitress on Saturday morning was seemingly very high, slurring, falling asleep while stapling the receipt to the ticket, left people sitting without taking their order for over 20mins. Honestly, I was impressed that our order was right with how messed up she was. The old guy in the back came out to get 2 beers while we were there. The food was fine. We won't be back."

- Rachel C.

"Clean and efficient. Food was so tasty. If you get Eric as your waiter you will in good hands. Very generous portions and a very fair price. Lobster Bisque was thick and creamy!"

- Maxine B.

"The food was good but average and the service quick but otherwise nothing special to recommend it."

- James S.

"This is a little restaurant with lots of flavors! So far everything we have tried have been amazing. From the French toast to the Winks famous Benny. The orange juice is fresh and the coffee is great. The prices in this place is ridiculous. The only thing I haven't been big on has been the grits. I can't wait to try new things in this restaurant. I will definitely will be coming back. Great customer service. Love!"

- Lucia M.

"Small, friendly, relaxing place. The waitress was super. The food was excellent and very reasonably priced. I'd have given it 5 starts if it weren't for 2 things: they only had pink sugar substitute, they did not have sugar-free (or lite) syrup and we both noticed the toast had a stale taste."

"Great place to grab some food. Simple but delicious. Great service!"
