Got a 50$ gift card to this place from my work. Thinking about bringing the gf there. I was wondering if they are known for anything in particular?

If they have the charbroiled oysters there, order them.

It's a good restaurant overall

I might be confusing them with another restaurant but I think they have a really good cedar plank redfish dish that is on special sometimes.

I looked at the menu on their site and this stood out to me as what I'd probably get as my entree.

I also expected to spend another 50 or so on top of the $50 gift card, more if we have wine etc.

Thanks for the tips guys, appreciate

You can eat at a table in the bar if you like. The oysters are chargrilled rather than charbroiled. They're delicious and I can make a meal off a dozen with the bread. Don't skip having these if you're going there.

The cedar plank redfish is very good. The visiting fish is also usually good. I had haddock there the last time I went and it was very very good.

They make a heck of a brandy alexander that I like to get for dessert.

I don't care for the crab and brie soup. Too heavy for the crab for me and too much brie.

There are some seafood apps that I don't find too appealing either.

Like everyone else said, get the oysters, they're really good. You'll want to mop up the butter oil with some bread too.

I say try the Brie and crab soup if you've never had it. Some think the cheese is a bit over powering but most like it. I believe they've won an award or two for the soup.

Entre wise, go with the duck. They've definitely won awards for the duck mansur and personally, I think it's the best dish on the menu. It's definitely the most consistent thing they do, and they've been doing it for a long time.

They also make their cheese cakes in house. THere's one with some swirl in it (dont' remember the name exactly) and it's the best one. They'll bring out a dessert plate and you can see all the deserts. They do a good flan too.
