Good to Know

Frequently asked.

Do you take reservations?

Yes — we accept reservations for parties of 4 or more for lunch, dinner, and Sunday brunch. Book up to four weeks in advance through OpenTable or by calling us at (609) 488-1327. Smaller parties and walk-ins are always welcome at the bar and the patio.

What's the dress code?

Coastal upscale — but come as you are. You'll see jackets and you'll see boat shoes. We care more about who's at the table than what they're wearing.

Can I bring a dessert from outside?

Of course — for celebrations and special occasions. There's a $4 per person outside dessert fee that covers cutting, plating, and service.

Is the courtesy shuttle really free?

Yes. If you've had dinner with us and you're within our service area (Ocean Acres to Surf City), text the shuttle line at (609) 713-0451 when you're ready to head out.

Do you have a kids menu?

We do — full kids dinner and brunch menus with steak & eggs, mac n cheese, grilled cheese, fish & chips and more. See our menu.

Can we host a private event here?

Yes — three private event rooms, full-service patio, and up to 220 guests for a full buyout. See Private Events for details.

Do you do takeout?

We do — order online through Toast, or call us directly. Note: happy hour items are bar-only and not available for takeout.

Are you wheelchair accessible?

Yes — the dining room, bar, patio and restrooms are all accessible. Reserved accessible parking is available right outside the entrance.
