I must be one of the last people to hear about this place. We went on a Friday and sat at the bar and had an amazing experience. You can tell how fresh all of the seafood is.
Sitting at the bar was perfect because we weren't crowded at all. We started with a half dozen of east coast oysters and they were amazing, you obvs have to get some when you come here.
We also did the buffalo calamari and crab dip. The calamari was cooked to perfection and was so light and flaky. Crab dip was small, but good, the bread it's served with is a great pairing.
Since we were kind of full we only ordered one entree to share, we opted for the scallops and were so happy we did. It was served with a lot of scallops and the cream sauces was amazing, pair that up with some bread to finish it off.
We paired it all off with some beers, I'm excited to come back again and try more on the menu. You can tell everything here is so fresh.
Food: 5/5
Service: 5/5

Treated a party of three to the Crab Cellar. Oddly they've moved the cellar to the attic. Probably needs a name change now. :-)
Thoroughly enjoyed our meal of unlimited Crab, Shrimp and select sides. The Crab was absolutely delicious.
One downside was that our server didn't seem that motivated to provide excellent service. Took off a start for that. Otherwise highly recommend.

We came here for happy hour and it happened to be oyster day so selected oysters were only 50 cents each! All the drinks were half off and the cocktails were pretty good. Service was a little slow because they were busy and the server apologized for it but we didn’t mind as we had our drinks while waiting. We got two and a half dozen of oysters, yummy clam chowder, fries that were cooked and seasoned perfectly, and sizzling shrimp. We could’ve skipped the shrimp though because it was pretty average. I would say the oysters tasted super fresh and the other sides were all good. I believe the price is normally 2.50-3.75 per oyster which can add up because each oyster was on the smaller side. I would still come back here and I love the area!

I had a semi private event here and the staff did an amazing job!! It was easy to set up through their website and I was reached out to via email quickly.
Christina and the staff on-site made everything run smoothly. We were able to bring an outside dessert and they packaged all of our leftovers for us.
The food was also amazing. Seafood was fresh and tasty and the catering menu was a great value. Cocktails were delicious, my favorite was the cape cod.
Overall, we had an amazing time and I highly recommend.

We came here during Chicago RW 2022. The Claim chowder, full of small claims. It was great but could be better compared the one I had in Boston. The scallops, the ribs, seafood wedge were all awesome!!! The crab fried rice, I wouldn't call it a fried rice, I would call it crab meat on top of rice, not recommended if your are looking for FRIED rice. BUFFALO CALAMARI also not recommended. Overall great seafood restaurant with the mind that some of the meals were not perfect, seafoods are all fresh! One of our friends is allergic to not-fresh shrimp or lobster, but she did not have any allergic reaction to the seafood they served.

Definitely go for the happy hour if you can, runs 4-6pm. Sat at the bar, the bartender Rudy took care of us all meal. Garlic shrimp were very buttery and garlicy and came with bread to soak up the extra. Scallops were cooked perfectly. No complaints, would come back in a heartbeat.

Service was a 5 . Drinks a 3 . Very small Bloody Mary , idk if I was paying for the large shrimp? And the other drink didn’t have any liquor. Got crab dip which was great, had 3 dipping options - I like the kettle chips the best. Cute interior.

Good find... Being from WA I am used to fresh high quality seafood.. especially oysters on the half shell... I ordered a 1/2 dozen here and the were delicious! Fresh and tasty just like home. The only thing they didn't do was cut the adductor muscle to release them...I also had the seafood wedge... Was pretty darn good..lots of seafood and a mild dressing so you don't lose the delicate crab flavor.. The service was very solid. Full bar as well.. Definitely come here for your ChiTown seafood cravings!

Nice place for Seafood lovers. I would recommend to reserve in advance for weekend dinners. Service was great. Good cocktails.
We tried Oyster Platter with a combination of raw as well as grilled. They were small.
The lobster and crab roll was great though.
Also ordered fish n chips but the fried fish was soaked in oil. They didn’t charge us with that.
