"Great little nautically themed seafood restaurant near Rapid City. There were only two employees working there, so figuring that in, service was really good. It was still courteous and relatively quick. The food was awesome - great walleye fish and chips! Surprisingly, they had a respectable drink/ cocktail menu! Try the 'Pirate's Wench' cocktail, it's delicious! This is a great place to stop!"

"We both had walleye. Very good! Husband's tossed salad was impressive. Cold beers served with ice cold glasses. Excellent service and friendliness."

"On 05-03-2024. I had ordered the crab boil. And I ordered it to go. The waitress was amazing and she was also the bartender. However, the food I would not get again. It said it came with a pound crab legs, shrimp, potatoes, and corn. I got two pieces of shrimp, some crab legs, one piece of corn and 2 1/2 pieces of potato. I did add seasonings. It has zero seasoning.. so disappointed."
