Casual counter-service seafood restaurant. Very reasonable prices, very good food. Only about three booths in this restaurant. Unlike other locations, no alcohol is served here. Most of the orders appeared to be to-go orders, but we enjoyed our time sitting in the restaurant.

The food here is so incredibly good! The shrimp was amazing, probably some of the best I have ever eaten. The staff is also very friendly and it has a very easy going vibe. I loved it.

My first time here and the experience was everything. I came when the rush was over and when I tell you that salmon, half powerbox and greens hit the spot, It was delicious! Please don't forget that garlic and lime butter. The crispy shrimp snack and that boss sauce muahh Chef's kiss. Service was a 10/10! Thank you ladies for a great experience

The food, is AMAZING! Best lobster roll I’ve ever had. I don’t know if I’ve just been lucky or something, but whenever I’ve come to this place there are always seats available (even though there’s limited seating) Briana was so sweet and so helpful!

This little hidden gem is Perfect for healthy and complicated dietary needs. The location is only a few blocks away from our Hotel so it was perfect for a nice walk. I'm traveling with my dad who does not eat meat but loves a good kale salad, so this place was perfect for the both of us. Walking in, its bright and the atmosphere is very welcoming. We were greeted by the staff and had the pleasure of Bri & grey taking our orders. They broke the menu down for my dads specific needs. My chicken and shrimp fajita bowl was cooked to perfection... i got extra shrimp too. they have reasonable and affordable prices. My dad's salad was soooo fresh I ordered another to go! 10/10 definitely recommend! I will be returning before I leave chicago!

My friend and I dropped in here for a snack after going to an event at the Newberry Library. I got hush puppies, and my friend got the shrimp. It was so good!!!! Also, the staff were so nice! The only reason that I give four stars instead of five is because this location doesn't have a bathroom so watch out for that.

I got the salmon salad and veggie sampler !! Everything was perfect the sampler usually comes with slaw but they accommodated me with more veggies because I don't eat coleslaw ! Literally everything was cooked to perfection I'm full and satisfied :)
