The views of the Chesapeake Bay from the restaurant are breathtaking, especially in the evening around sunset. Great menu, lots of options, especially fresh seafood. The fresh local raw oysters were wonderful, and the Eastern Shore Virginia style Clam Chowder was delicious. Highly recommend dining at this restaurant!Parking: Plenty of free parking available in a parking lot at the restaurant.Wheelchair accessibility: Wheelchair accessible from the parking lot, with ramps, etc.

We went to have dinner at this very beautiful restaurant, the stunning sea view. We made a reservation first to be able to arrive and be taken care of quickly. We start with some appetizers and drinks before ordering dinner. We were attended by a very kind lady. We also met a worker who helped us at all times in the attentions at the table.The food was very delicious, I loved the fried 🍤 shrimp. We enjoyed the food and the pleasant atmosphere. Everything was delicious. The service is very good and the place is very clean.

We didn't have a reservation, so they sat us at the bar, which was ok.They were NOT happy about that. IF YOU PLAN ON GOING, MAKE A RESERVATION! We were from out of town/state, and you could definitely feel it. The locals were taken care of first. They were very busy. The food was ok, but nothing was outstanding. It was expensive, in my opinion. The building interior and exterior was neat.

This was our second time coming here to eat. Both times we had an amazing experience. The staff are nice and the food is excellent. The scenery is great with endless views of the water and wildlife. We saw several eagles both times were we went here, it makes the trip here even more worth it! The plaster po’ boy was very tasty and my wife got the clam chowder which was the best according to her. We will be stopping by again!Parking: Large parking lot out front of the restaurant.Kid-friendliness: Kid options on the menu. Our kids loved the colorful fish in the aquarium!Wheelchair accessibility: There is a ramp and handicap spaces. The restaurant is a single floor so getting around wasn’t an issue.

The location and ambience was amazing! Definitely what I needed to celebrate my Solar Return. Presentation of the food was eye catching; however was sent back due to not being served barely lukewarm. The food was satisfying and seasoned appropriately. Delicious. If it would allow half stars, I'd give my total experience 3.5 stars.I was not happy with my window booth seating. The scenary was excellent! The condition of the seating was unexpected given the prices and ambience. My seating (bottom and back areas) were torn, not wiped down, had visible food and crumbs in the crease and pinnings of the seating (disgusting) and smeared finger/hand prints. It wasn't just our booth. The booth next to us looked the same. I wore white pants that survived.... phew grateful

My family and I love this place. We have to travel over an hour, cross two bridge/tunnel complexes, and pay a $20 toll just to visit this restaurant. But I think its fair to say it's well worth it. Whenever I have visitors and they like/want seafood, I often suggest visiting this restaurant. The menu is not huge but there is something for most any appetite and the quality of the food and its preparation are second to none.

Best oysters I've ever had! The oysters here are incredibly large and tasty! They don't call it the Oyster Farm for nothing. All their dishes are top-notch and you couldn't ask for a more beautiful location. We chose to dine al fresco and it feels like you are eating right on the water! An amazing overall experience. The service was stellar!

My family and I were in the area, I called them to see if they had a wait. The hostess was very friendly and informed us that they could take us right away. We were seated promptly. The bay views from our booth were absolutely beautiful. Our server and other staff that checked on us throughout our visit were very friendly and attentive. The food was delicious, we had the shrimp mac and cheese and the shrimp & grits. A little pricey but I don't mind as long as it's worth it and it was.Parking: Plenty of parking Kid-friendliness: Kid menu

They food was delicious and the service was very good. My husband had the oysters and a salad. He said it was the best oysters he's ever had. The salad was fresh and crispy! So good. The steak was amazing! And the eggs were perfect. But... The reason for 4 stars instead of 5... My $41 steak, yes MP $41, was served on top of tater tots 😳 Really!?? I would think for $41 I could have gotten something potato other than children's finger food. The tater tots soaked up the juices from the steak. I like for my steak to sit in the juices. So let the buyer beware. Good food but if not ordering seafood, ask what you're getting.

I don't know where to even start about how fantastic this place is. We visited for the first time today on mothers day. We tried the oysters, the mussels, the blacked chicken nachos and the she crab soup for starters. Everything was the best we've had was the vote around the table. For dinner we had the lobster Mac and cheese and the ribeye. Again best ever. Even my picky child demolished his chicken tenders and fries. Do yourself and favor and just go. Service and the view are also top notch.

Visited this place for the first time. Service was quick and friendly. Our waitress, Quazhanik, was absolutely the best and friendly. Please ask for her if you visit…you won’t be disappointed. I ordered the Fish & Chips. Having tried “Fish & Chips” in London England (where F&C comes from) these were spot on. Crisp and clean! My wife ordered Calamari and it too was full of flavor and amazing. I highly recommend this place A+.

The hostess was unwelcoming at best. She appeared annoyed that we asked for a table for three outside. She wasn't able tell us a wait time. Nor was she able to properly wear a face mask which was strapped across her chin. Not a good way to start our evening dining experience. We sat on the deck for 45 minutes listening to one of the worst Spotify '90s playlists imaginable. I went in to inquire about how much longer the wait might be considering there were two empty tables outside. Magically, she said she was just coming out to get us for seating. We were able to order and receive our food quickly; however, the food was just okay and perhaps so much as disappointing. I gave three stars instead of two only because the view at sunset is beautiful and our waitress was fantastic-friendly, cheerful, and attentive.

We were only in the area for five days. The setting, right on the water was beautiful. We ate here on day 1 and went back again on day 4 because we enjoyed it so much. We sat at a table by the bar. Kathy and her staff were amazing. They were super welcoming, ready with recommendations, and willing to answer all my touristy questions. Plus, they kept our table clean and our glasses full!Between both our visits, we had oysters (fried & on the half shell), spinach dip, crab dip, and chowder. It was all amazing.We will definitely go back next time we are in the Chesapeake area.

My friends and I went to the oyster farm for dinner on our weekend trip to Cape Charles. We had a reservation and were sat in the bar area. Our server was super nice and friendly but she was bartending at the same time, so she had a lot going on. We put in an order for calamari, and it never came. Our food finally came out- I got the rockfish special with hollandaise sauce - it was fine- but not the greatest for the price. My friends got the scallops with lobster risotto and it looked like a starter- I would’ve been starving.Our server was lovely and comped dessert for us- we got the brownie Sunday and crème brûlée. The brownie Sunday was amazing!

We wanted the unobstructed view!The food- was top notch! I am celiac and find it hard to eat many places! GF options were on the menu as well!Prices were not cheap but also not over priced! They served your money’s worth! Every bite had seafood!Cannot say enough about our experience!Pictured belowGF- thai shrimpCrab macaroni and cheeseA few views from the deck

Reservations seem to be the way to go, honestly the ribeye I had was subpar very very fatty and way overpriced at a whopping $52 for a 14oz ribeye. My wife enjoyed her fried oysters though. Coke was flat as could be and service was pretty good for the most part, could’ve been better for the 5 other tables that were sat.Prolly won’t go back as we’re visiting from Charleston.Fried oyster platter, 14oz ribeye plate, and 4 cokes was $140 after a tip. Pricey to say the least.

The Freshest Oysters ever! If you’ve never tried them, this would be the place to start. Chesapeake Bay Oysters are in my opinion, the best in the USA. Cape Charles is one of my new best places to vacation! Bring your boat.

The view was really beautiful from the restaurant and so was the garden. It was setup for a beautiful wedding when we went. We tried the Chicken and waffle sandwich, Crab cake sandwich which were both all right and not that great for me. My husband had the Oysters steamed and he really liked it. Make sure you try the Crab soup and the Mac and cheese.

Views and service was a 5. The food was more of a 3 for the price. It was good but not something that made me come back for. Maybe I ordered the wrong thing but this was what was recommended. I would come back for drinks and the views.

Best place for a sunset at Cape Charles. They were busy and short staff so be patient because the food was worth waiting for. Oyster shooters were great, oyster on half shell wonderful, shrimp n grits yummy. Took home Pumpkin cheesecake, delicious.
