The view is overlooking the yachts. Nice small place thT gets packed so get reservations always. Food was great. Loved the calamari and the shrimp scampi. Service was excelent too.
The sampler plate + martinis + fresh oysters on the half shell will make you feel like you're in Mad Men.
Freshest oysters on the half-shell...great happy hour!

If you like it hot, try Surf City Grill's infamous Cajun corn dogs. If you're looking for something tamer, their clam chowder bread bowl is also a winner. Read more.

I luv CHK, eat here 1-2 times/wk & am the Mayor BUT ironically I think the vegetables are the least great items. Best is the salmon, rice & sauces. Vegetable medley is worst. But I LOVE CHK!

The sea food crape is amazing!
Seafood crape is still my favorite
