Great local seafood. Walking distance from townhouse. Open for dinner only starting at 5:00pm. More of an upscale restaurant than next door at Crab Trap (both are still fantastic just describing the atmosphere). Great prime rib, pork chop and pasta dishes for those wanting other options besides seafood. Make sure to try the bread pudding for dessert!
