We went for a late lunch. What an amazing experience we had. We were all tired, craved seafood and just wanted to relax. From the moment we walked in we felt right at home. Our waiter let us relax. We never felt hurried. Unlike other restaurants where they drive you like cattle until the bill comes. Not only was the service outstanding, the food was too. We got the captain’s platter with a huge fillet of haddock. It was so perfectly cooked. White and juicy. Along with a lobster that wasn’t the normal chicken size most restaurants give you, it was larger. And cooked perfectly. The right color and the meat slid out. A person in our party got the haddock sandwich and noted how fresh it was. We also got the coconut shrimp, yum! Fries were great too. But this food would be nothing without great service. A notable event happened. My elderly friend forgot his take home food. We were about to pull out on the main road And who appeared, but our waiter. Seeing his heart and going above and beyond just secured this restaurant as my favorite place to go in Brunswick. The only other seafood place I haven’t tried is Cameron‘s but this even beat Schutty’s. The best part is, we were eating there to celebrate my mom’s birthday as she is in heaven now. And I know she was looking down, smiling on us too. Watching us enjoy...

Read moreI ate here with a friend the third time. I got the chicken Vietnamese sandwich. In my second bite, a long, black hair, pulled out of the chicken in the sandwich. I thought, well this could happen anywhere. Lo and behold, three bites later, this happened again, with another long, black hair, that pulled out of my sandwich like a string of mozzarella on a pizza. You don't want to eat here; obviously the sanitation in the back room is not as good as it appears up front. It makes me wonder what happens behind the scenes. There are plenty of great seafood restaurants in brunswick, bypass this one, unless you want to eat multiple unknown person's hair in your food! Nasty!
I thought I might still return to eat here again, but no, there are many other great seafood places close by. I would be cringing every time I took a bite of my food, expecting a long hair; stuff of my nightmares! Cameron's, and Shuttys are two that are amazing, so they will get business.
They did not make us pay for my sandwich, with the hair in it, or my friend's sandwich. It was not a big tab. We each had a...
