CITY GRIT: One of our favorite spots for oysters! Be a high roller and get the Raw Bar Sampler or hit them up at Happy Hour for $1 Oysters and cheap drinks! Don't miss the Snapper soup, a Philly Classic.
Mike Stone: Snapper soup, fresh lobster roll and home made ginger beer made for an excellent dinner. Great place
Raquel GC: We ordered the tilefish, trout and flounder and in all honesty all were really really really good! Pecan-walnut pie was fantastic and service was spot on! 12/10 for me (and not expensive!)

Halalfoodcritic: Great food! Get the ahi tuna dumplings, rock shrimp with chili aioli, drunken noodles, and red snapper with pineapple sauce! Forget the dessert or get it elsewhere.
