The food is delicious, hands down. But there's always a wait, so go early. Love the atmosphere, and the staff are really friendly. Only 4 stars bc I've gone for the $1 oysters several times, and the wait is always so long that I miss the window of opportunity.Update: something must have changed because I have gotten several times this year and have had no waiting. Worth noting, reservations are required to sit inside. However, the manager, Tyler, is outstanding! And the service and food continue to impress.

I had a lovely time here. They have a lot of outdoor seating available. There was live music when I visited which was lovely. I had she crab soup and flash fried calamari. Both were delicious, especially the calamari. They dusted the calamari just enough to fry but not too much to make it doughy. Their sangria was great. The bartender took very well care of me. The service was very quick and friendly!

Had a great Sunday brunch here with great crab cakes and she-crab soup. Everyone was super friendly and welcoming of our 2 kids. We sat outside and there is a nice area for the kids to play. Overall great food with great service.

Great good. A cut above restaurant. They have the best fried shrimp I have found, and I speak as a past Floridian who knows good seafood.

Went for lunch.... they made substitutions to my order without telling me so I could change my order. I was not impressed with the meal at all. It was disappointing because it is known as a good seafood place. Waitstaff was excellent though.

The food here at Berrets is amazing and the atmosphere is so peaceful and relaxing if you want a place to eat that aren't going to break the bank this is the place for you.

Food was fantastic! Wait staff was very friendly and attentive. Restaurant itself was very pleasant. The only negative was that they didn’t have sweet tea, and that’s something that we look forward to when we are in the south.

Had a little getaway for Easter and had an early dinner here . Oysters were amazing. (My son tried his first raw oyster!) Wine pairing was perfect. Main course was fab. Oysters Rockefeller was some of the best I’ve ever had. Crab cake was full of crab. The shrimp was out of this world good. Server was a sweetheart. Why aren’t all restaurants like this? Truely a gem! We will be back!
