We were excited to try this place out especially since some locals recommended it, but it wasn't our vibe. The place (at least where we were seated near the bar) needs a facelift. The service was good and food came out quick, but we were hoping for more fresh things and a vast majority of the menu is fried. The food was fine. Probably the best thing we had was the crab cake and hushpuppies. They were both really good. We wouldn't go back though.

Solid 3-to-4. Not a lot of sit-down choices in the area and this is one of them. The a/c in the dining room is fantastic and full blast, supported by several ceiling fans. But the hourlong Friday 6 pm wait in the lobby is very hot.The food is...fine. We all had fried things and they were decent. Their cocktail sauce is perfect. The Old-Bay -type seasoning on the table is really really good, especially on the fried flounder which was huge but tasteless (well...it's flounder so...). The French fries were just terrible...wet, mushy, and wiggly. Even our kids would not eat them...left huge piles of them on their plates. They were out of the mushroom appetizer; understandable because they were slammed on a Fri night during pony auction weekend. But there was no excuse for the heavy greasy overfried tasteless hush puppies. At least they were free and something to eat while we waited 40 mins for dinner.Too busy for the waitstaff to pay much attention to us but waitress was friendly and efficient. The decor is "duck hunting lodge" which we thought was cool. We would come back for sure, but only right at opening time, and with managed expectations.

Wow! Rays gives huge portions and has a ton of variety. There is always a wait which speaks volumes. Their crab cakes are meaty and delicious. The inside is festive and the decor fits in perfectly for the shore.

Great service and food, you can eat in or order your choice of seafood to take home to cook. It's only open certain days of the week so call ahead.

Ate here for a family dinner on a Saturday night. It was busy, but we didn't have to wait too long. I really dug the decor. Lots of wood and nautical stuff. There is a small gift shop in the lobby. Everyone else in the family seemed satisfied with their flounder, shrimp, and crabcakes. He got tuna, which is unusual for him, but seemed to really love it. I had broiled sea scallops, which were good but gritty. My baked potato was a bit sad, I wish I had sent it back like my cousin had for a fresh one. The hushpuppies were tasty and huge. No onion or corn bits, just like I prefer. We'll be back next time we visit, but I will make sure to only get scallops when they are in season.

The place is packed, all the time for a good reason. The seafood is great! Their parking is adequate. While their waiting area is terrible. Customers end up standing on top of each other as people try and go, while blocking the restroom area.

Pick and chose when their going to have carry out. Seafood not cooked all the way . Told that they were closed 15 minutes before closing time. Old man is gone and teenagers are running things now and don't care about the customer.

our family has been eating here for 30 years. This will be the last time after a series of very negative experiences. The staff have been rude, unorganized, and had no idea how to handle the orders and even refused to take a phone order with 2hours left before closing. This last order had hair cooked into a hush puppy , and there was a missing side and no prime rib dipping juice. After fighting to get the order that they "had no record of" they found it and said nothing but you can pay now. We use to spend 120+ for every order, the quality of the food has deteriorated and is not worth the price.
