    Great find. Sushi was excellent. We loved the lazy lobster & fish tacos as well. The boys got burgers and they really liked them. Nice wine list with reasonable prices Cool casual atmosphere

    been here many times and its time for a tip. Get a dozen oystahs (or two), the grenades, the poke salad, and a lobstah roll. share it all. tuna is local.

    Seconding Charles B - oysters and sushi are the way to go at this place. Rest of the menu can be easily skipped. Be sure to get a dozen wellfleets and a serve or two of the hand grenades.

    For a fancier take on the clam shack approach, Mac's Shack fits the bill, serving up sushi in addition to its coastal fare, but still on paper plates and plastic silverware. One of our NE favorites. Read more

    Hand grenades, oysters, curried local scallops and cappuccino martini for dessert- everything was excellent. Fresh and perfect size portions. Srvc was great too. Wtrs did not hover nor neglect.

    Over the phone they said this place is per friendly as long as you seat at the patio. We got here and the dog needs to be "over the fence".. That's stupid. Ambiance, drinks and food are great.

    Unbelievable (Wellfleet) oysters. Fish sandwich was good too, but man, those oysters.

    Fish Tacos, Sushi, Big Kahuna, Lobster Mashed Potatoes are must haves... Ask if you can get the lobster mashed potatoes- they aren't on the menu

    Oysters and Sushi is phenomenal. Prices are over the top and drinks can be a bit weak.

    Most obnoxious service in Wellfleet. With a smile told us no menu accommodations would be made for the kids because it's "on season." Attitude, staff. hostess and manger.

    OK food, mediocre customer service. Ordered something, got something different. When I asked for clarification, waitress offered to take my plate away and start over, instead of just bringing the vege
