Who we are

We are a locally owned and family oriented restaurant. We officially opened in Fall 2024, but this development had been many years in the making. Our sister restaurant, The Landshark, was created in 2015. Since then, Jared Foster, our founder, built his brand from the ground up by focusing on customer satisfaction and sourcing the best seafood direct from the coast. In a world filled with cookie cutter eateries providing subpar experiences, we take great pride in consistently delivering premium quality products with exceptional customer service in a truly one of a kind atmosphere.
