    Food was the worst seafood I've ever had. Literal slime and burnt. Brought out my dish and thought they served me over done steaks by mistake to find that it was a burnt crabcake and chard to death fish that had a string of slime that came off it after I cut into it. Left the restaurant feeling scammed and slightly ill. Was there for almost an hour and half before served our food that was a cruel joke of a disappointment and can't believe they let this food go out to be served to people that I wouldn't serve to my dog. Yes it was that bad I'm not over exaggerating. Cook needs fired.

    Was not expecting much in by the way of food. However we were pleasantly surprised by the quality of all the dishes. Sautéed redfish was excellent as was sushi bowl and Cajun pasta. Really wonderful for families. Our grandkids were mesmerized.

    The food was literally topped here! I am from State, where seafood is made fresh daily, and the seafood on my plate was absolutely immaculate. I’ve never had such a great crabcake from a restaurant in Tennessee before. It was 99% crab and not a whole bunch of filler. Our waiter Cruz was mega friendly and knowledgeable about me and our choices as well. It was really cool seeing all the fish and the complementary photo was really, really cute.

    My husband & son loved the seafood, my daughter & I got the chicken Alfredo, which was also very good. Our waiter was great & the rest of the staff was friendly and efficient as well. We enjoyed our dinner very much.

    Shrimp tacos were over cooked and chewy. Fish tanks were great to watch.
