Best WLM Reviews

Stopped by after spending the day in AC. This is a small restaurant with limited seating upstairs but great atmosphere. There was a 20-minute wait; we ordered drinks while we waited for our table. It was a beautiful day, so we didn't mind. Once seated, we ordered the tuna nachos, Carribean korean beef tacos, and the garlic shrimp. All great choices.
I would stop by again whenever I'm in AC.
Great place to sit and enjoy a drink with some appetizers. They have a huge drink menu. You can watch the boats go bye and look at the casinos. Great music and food is delicious!! I come here at least once a year.
Small restaurant with limited inside seating upstairs and a large bar downstairs. My husband and daughter loved their burgers and had super crispy fish and chips, which I enjoyed. My other daughter had chicken tenders, which is your typical breaded and fried tenders platter with fries. We didn't stay for dessert because my daughter spotted a mouse under the table across from us, and then we all continued to see it visit the dining room as we finished our meal. We were told when it gets cold they get a few mice inside but I'd prefer eating establishments to have this kind of issue under control.
Friday Night ~7:45pm. Parked by aquarium. Looked busy from outside. Beautiful location on the water. Host was friendly. Seated right away. Waited for 12-15 minutes and no one came to say hi or acknowledge we were there, so we left, expecting good service. Will update if we decide to go back.
We got some cocktails, shrimp, crab cakes & mussels. The shrimp was surprisingly well cooked - fried but still fresh. Crab cakes were only decent, but we loved the mussels.
We were told a 30 min wait but it was more like 4.
Their bigger drinks are strong & their clientele lean sunburnt elders so the people watching here is next level.
2024 update: Still killin it with the delicious mason jars and quick bites. One of the best spots to hangout on a sunny day in AC.
Bit pricey but worth it!
The service was welcoming, fast and friendly. The interior is tight and the roof definitely has water damage which makes the room musty. The drink selection has variety and it's moderately priced. The food menu had me underwhelmed, however I still had hope that whatever they did they did well....The crab cakes are really good, they do have claw meat inside. The wild rice and veggies were fresh and i would definitely recommend it. I would've liked to seen the fries or chips done in house instead of frozen, maybe some more healthy, refreshing options on the menu. Overall a decent spot on the water that you can dock your boat and get a quick drink and bite.
After going on a Atlantic Cruise i visited Back Bay. They have tables outside and inside. I chose outside. We ordered and the food did not take long at all. The waiter was friendly and extremely helpful. Thoroughly enjoyed.
