Reviews
The atmosphere of the market and restaurant makes this little spot a unique and elegant stop.
Over all a wonderful experience!
What I can confidently say is that you won’t go wrong with anything you order on the menu. 10/10
The food is the star of the show although the atmosphere is very homey and inviting.
We started with the spinach and artichoke with crab dip paired with the tuna nachos. The crab dip was solid and the tuna nachos were good. I’m not a big fan of Wasabi so that shaded it a bit for me but didn’t stop me from destroying 3 of the 5 from the dish.
Since we were here for happy hour I ordered a half dozen oysters (places like this it should be mandatory I feel) since we were here for HH. Not being knowledgeable enough to desern the beat to choose.
The Jimmy fund gold and mere point were the tops, Barnstable was a solid 3.5 of 5, mere point was good however sex on the beach being a little disappointing.
We ordered the black cod with grits and broccoli and the lobster roll Connecticut style with black beans & rice, sweet potatoes and added jalapeño puppies.
Brooooo. That black cod literally melts in your mouth. This was the absolute best cod we have ever had which is saying something. The lobster was phenomenal and while the brioche bun was good, it comes off a little dry so I’d prefer just eating that lobster alone. Trying the salad version next time.
The last item for the night was creme brulette and peach sorbet. I was disappointed the creme brolette wasn’t lit of fire as I love that presentation but was so good. The peach sorbet was meh. Not a recommendation tbh especially when compared with the creme brulette.
We are definitely going to be back sooner than later because there are too many good things to eat in one visit (but I tried).
Round 2: fight!
Oh boy! So we started with one of the specials with the tropical ceviche which was fire!
I checked off the “future Tim” the bacon wrapped scallops. Eh. 3.5 out of 5. The bacon was a bit overpowering. The scallop was wonderful but for $26 for 3 scallops it moved to the “probably pass” list.
The Paloma and house margaritas were fire.
I had the red snapper with dynamite sauce with the butter squash and broccoli slaw. Delicious. The broccoli slaw was nice and spicy with the sriracha mix.
Mom got the special with the deluxe steamer bowl: 1/2 lobster, crab claws, shrimp and scallops in a leek and tomatoes broth and fettuccini.
Finished it off with another creme brûlée.
Stick a folk in us son. We’re done! lol. Until next time!
Things to try next time future Tim:
Cobb salad
Seafood gumbo
Yellow fin tuna (hold the horseradish)
Fish and chips
If you’ve not been, you probably don’t live close by so, make the drive. It’s worth it!
Now let’s get to the food, my wife ordered the sushi grade seared tuna, fries and broccoli and it was delicious! The fries were seasoned perfectly, the tuna was cooked to perfection, and the broccoli was steamed with care.
I had the Parmesan crusted trout(the meat pulled off the skin easily and they deboned it), with cheesey grits (crazy creamy and cheesey)and collard greens(slightly acidic with some bacon and crazy deep flavor like someone loved me and wanted me to enjoy this dish), and I’m going to admit that I haven’t been to a restaurant in too long where nothing needed salt, but this place just gets it!. I never touched the salt because I was too busy inhaling the plate of food I ordered and was so happy to be at a restaurant that understands that fine dining can be done perfectly in a casual setting. This place has flown under my radar for far too long and I must recommend you eat her as soon as you can.
I also went to the fish market for some red fish, and the first guy was too busy taking to a guy about Rodeo Goat and his favorite burger to help us, but then Ryan(I think, he has a solid mustache) came to and was very friendly and helpful. We ended up getting some salmon dip and crackers to go along with our red fish, I really can’t say enough great things about this place. 10/10 would recommend all aspects of this restaurant.
The cocktails were perfectly crafted, strong, and balanced. When I mentioned I preferred my second drink without sugar syrup, our server immediately had it remade to my taste – such attentive, proactive service is rare and deserves praise. Rex’s truly knows how to take care of their guests.
We enjoyed the tuna nachos, smoked salmon appetizer, and redfish with beans & cheesy grits – every dish was bursting with flavor and cooked to perfection.
The restaurant’s location is convenient, with plenty of parking and a cozy, welcoming vibe. Pro tip: book a reservation, as it’s busy every day of the week.
Price-wise, it’s not cheap, but the exceptional quality of food and service makes it well worth it.
Will we be back? You bet, count us in!
