“ Towson best kept secret. Great lil spot for happy hour drinks and sea food treats. I really enjoy this place the vibes are great and it where my wife and I sneak away for a lil happy hour fun. I do wish that they didnt change their happy hour times. It was nice having happy hour end at 7, I was able to make it after work, but now it ends at 6. The sushi rolls and fried shrimp are my favorite. The crab was real Maryland crab meat and the shrimp has a spicy old bay hot sauce. Very flavorful. Definitely worth a visit whenever youre in the Towson area. ”
