The Waterman – Seafood
Stepping into this vibrant coastal retreat feels like a breath of salt-tinged air, where the rhythmic shucking of chilled oysters and the clinking of glasses set a lively, nautical tone. The kitchen celebrates the bounty of the ocean through overflowing raw bar towers and zesty ceviche, balanced by the comforting crunch of golden hush puppies and spice-kissed calamari. It is a spirited gathering place where shared plates of creamy seafood dip and tropical-inspired shrimp bring the essence of the shore to every table.
