Approximately 90% of reviewers commend the fresh and high-quality seafood, with oysters frequently highlighted as "delectable" and "flavorful."

While 8% of reviews mention it can be "a little loud" or that high-top bar seating can be cramped, the atmosphere generally contributes to a "fun" and "bustling" experience.
