Outstanding service by our server, Sam. We had crab legs, a seafood boil and cheesecake, and all were great! The kitchen even made me a separate batch of biscuits at Sam’s request because I couldn’t eat cheese! Great meal & overall experience!

We sat on the outdoor patio to catch the sunset, arriving with a perfect 45-minute window before dusk. Guided by our wonderfully friendly waiter, my wife and I ordered the chargrilled octopus, grouper tacos, clam chowder, a cocktail, and a beer, starting things off with six raw oysters as an appetizer. The dining experience was exceptional: • The Atmosphere: The transitioning beach view at sunset paired with the internal restaurant vibe was stunning and romantic. It is an absolute must-visit for a spouse or date night. • The Food: Flawless flavors and perfectly balanced. As someone who prefers less salty food, I found the seasoning incredibly spot-on. • Standout Dish: The clam chowder was incredibly rich and smooth. The clams were cleaned perfectly with absolutely zero grit or sand. Portion sizes were just right and every dish tasted amazing. While the price point leans on the higher side, the spectacular sunset views and top-tier service make it worth every penny. Highly recommended for special occasions or romantic evenings!

Open Table was a great place to make a reservation! Red Lobster was ready for us. We were served quickly but not rushed. The server was cheerful and did an excellent job. We appreciated her working on Christmas. We were seated in a side area which was nice because we have a service dog. There are several choices for desserts, and the portions are good size with prices reasonable. It was a nice day to eat out on Jesus's birthday.
