Each time I am in Virginia Beach, this is the one restaurant I look forward to enjoying. Fresh fish presped delectably. Superb service. I will definitely return again.

Went here because of Trip Advisor reviews we read. Definitely go early, it's a small place. Easy walk from oceanfront where we were staying. Crab dip was very creamy and good, though maybe just a bit too much Old Bay. The potato chip-crusted mahi was cooked excellently, but it had a lot of flavors going on! Roasted red peppers, dill,...

I was dining solo so sat at the bar, dark wood and well stocked. Staff and patrons were friendly and chatty. Food was delicious and drinks were good. Prices seem reasonable for the high quality. It was a good time and I will go back!

Great atmosphere, great food and great service! I had the fish in the bag which was so yummy! Good selection of wine and beer and a great location. I will not miss this place on my next trip to Va Beach!

This is our go to restaurant, one of our favorite VB local eateries when in the area. This trip I was dining alone on a Wednesday, not a weekend and was surprised how crowded it was and how impersonal and bad the service was, I will return but not solo. It was apparent the larger tables were calling the shots.... More

Quite simply the best place for seafood at the Oceanfront. Casual and friendly atmosphere well-suited to small groups and couples. The pride of this restaurant, however, is on the plates. Unfussy preparations of the solid offering of entrees. The chef and owner allow the quality of the ingredients speak for themselves. Stick to the local offerings and you will not... More

The food was outstanding. I sat at the bar and the bsr manager made me feel right at home. The atmosphere was comfortable yet refined in its own way. I will be going back for sure. Go check it out.

It's all good there, they're not a 'fry everything' type of seafood restaurant and I haven't been disappointed yet with many visits there. The menu is chock full of amazing appetizers, entrees, and desserts, and the specials are even better. It looks like (and is, actually) an old beach house, so look for the one with the long line around... More
