"Servers are great. Looks fantastic. Eating is just okay, especially at the price. Oysters are bad. I love raw oysters and here were some of the worst I had. They are from Chesapeake Bay, although there are tons of large Pacific oysters. They tasted old. Fish tacos were like $18 for 2. That's $9 for a taco and I wasn't impressed, especially with the tortilla. You pay for the place and not for the food. Soda's about $5. I'm probably not coming back."
