Any other day would have likely been an easy fix. However, this was extremely frustrating and posed a great inconvenience as Mother's Day is always highly sought after for reservations, made even more difficult due to having a large party. The design of this app is to avoid the hassle of calling for reservations, and the confirmation email I received should have sufficed without necessitating a followup phone call to the restaurant. If the information isn't up to date this is ineffective

Firecracker Shrimp were prob count large cook nice with tasty BAM sauce. My combo Broiled seafood platter was excellent! Crab cake tasted like a real MD crab cake! Scallops,shrimp and Flounder all cook to perfections. Could use less Old Bay on everything Wife’s Ribeye steak pretty good . Ambience and deco us very, very nice and would be a top end base in any major city. Even the sound system and various music genre was great! Looks like they have live music small combo on Fri evenings. Most perplexing part is they serve steamed crabs and it just doesn’t work in this higher end atmosphere. Looks like they are trying to be all things and I doubt that will work. I believe we will go there again next Friday as we found out the Musician Clay Hunt is playing there next Friday not full band. Only bad thing was a terrible Dirty Martini with tiny mushy olives. Switched to beer real quick. Sever Darius was personable and outstanding and represented the place very well
