What an eclectic menu! We dined at one of the two tables available for outdoor dining, and the service was attentive and very friendly. For our first visit, we couldn't have asked for more. I couldn't see it, but my husband noted the brisk take-out traffic, as well. We will be back!

So food here is excellent, no doubt. The young gals serving the tables, and bussing, delightful. But the Hostess, head waitress isn't nice, she sure let's everyone knows SHE'S the boss. Big deal, lighten up, relax and enjoy the restaurant. Needs an attitude adjustment badly.

Truly outstanding meal. Was gonna try the scallops but decided to go with the brisket, ribs, and sausage platter and glad I did. Wasn’t sure how the BBQ would be not coming from a “BBQ place” but wow, the meats were tender, tasty, and not fatty. Came with a sweet potato side, a piece of cornbread, and a pork and bean chili but I only had room for two out of the three. Both the sweet potato and corn bread were delicious and I’ll be having the pork and bean chili for lunch tomorrow. My wife opted for the seafood gumbo and we were both impressed with the amount of seafood. She easily made two meals out of it and it had just enough heat. Velo will become a regular stop for us on date night and we look forward to seeing what Chef Matt will be cooking up

Small family owned and run restaurant. BYOB and cash only. It was the most flavorful meal we had in a long time. I had the crab cake and my wife the scallops. Both were amazing. We will be back again.

This place is pretty good. The seafood they serve was fresh and cooked perfectly. Some of the dishes had an eclectic style to them but overall very good well cooked food. It is cash only, which in 2018 is a rather annoying and old school way to do business but hey it's not my choice. Bring cash and prepare to eat good.

Drove past this place like a million times and never thought twice about it. My girlfriend on a whim wanted to try it. The food was fantastic and the portions were ridiculously large. Girlfriend got the ribs (probably can be a meal for three). She loved them. I had the fisherman's stew. I was beside myself.

My family and I had dinner here tonight and ask I can say is wow! The food was fantastic. Chef Matthew is creating some extraordinary dishes, so original. And the execution was flawless. I love this place. I had roasted salmon with mashed red potatoes, spinach, charred red onion salad, with a honey red grape reduction. It was excellent! Of note: the best new England clam chowder I've ever had in a restaurant. Really. The best. My wife has the summer lump crab cake with cheddar and bacon Mac n cheese, avocado, and wasabi aioli. Really good. My wife and family absolutely loved this place. Not too much to look at from the outside, but the interior, service, and food were outstanding. Try it, you'll thank me.
