★☆☆☆☆ 1.0 Mark L. · Jul 2025

The staff at the counter are great. Friendly & competent. Not sure what’s going on with the cook(s). The food was terrible. Everything we ordered was undercooked & we needed to take our food home to cook it properly. Prices are high but would be worth it if the food was good. The location is beautiful, on the beach. I would strongly suggest umbrellas for each table as there is zero shade. This restaurant has potential but requires competent and knowledgeable management.

What happened to this place??? It seems under new ownership in recent years- prices skyrocketing, serving sizes dramatically less- bought 3 - 2 scoop ice creams for $28+ and the 2 scoops was the smallest scoops I have ever seen. But- I have noticed there are never any lines anymore- you can get any pick of a table. Back in the day- old owners had coolers of free water, reasonable prices and the lines were endless. Always so busy! There used to be live music- not any more. It used to be a fun dinner on the beach you could take your family to. Now I bring my food from local delis and eat on the beach. After today and buying ice cream- I’ll go to Treadwells In Peabody instead. Soooo disappointing. I hope the new owners realize you make more money selling in quantity than you do selling a few

Such a shame. Disappointing. Window staff was fighting. A man lost his wallet and was told that they can't help him because they are too busy. They had paper plate signs saying fried oysters were the special but they didn't have any (take down the signs?). $15 for an extremely underwhelming scallop roll (chips or fries are extra).

Lime rickey was kinda weak. Decent but hard to call it that. Needed more lime. Ice cream overpriced as most places are. Service is a bit slow and mediocre communication overall. When someone’s order is ready, call their name or at least mention the item they ordered rather than just place it at the window in front of another waiting customers face.

★★★★★ 5.0 Lisa Ogorzalek · May 2018

What a great experience! Stopped by around sunset and absolutely loved my grilled cheese and fries. Great value for my meal and the staff was so friendly. They made me feel at home! I will definitely be back! Can't wait to enjoy more great food and beach views here.
