Etta's Channel Side Restaurant

Etta's has a special place in my heart. I first ate here when it was in a cinder block building 25 years ago. Stick with the basics, oysters, crabs and hush puppies. The new location is picturesque but the expanded menu has challenged and compromised the essence of this restaraunt. Stick with the classic Chincoteague fresh food choices and you will be extremely satisfied.

Good food and good service.  I would recommend.

Nice view...nice decor....and small portions of bland food.  The Island shrimp appetizer was a dissapointment because the shrimp were frozen and in a tasteless batter and the shrimp for some reason were flat...yes flat shrimp....they were supposed to come with an advertised " spicy not for the feint of heart" sauce and even that was very bland.  Next came the special...a duo of crab cakes and crab imperial...they arrived....very small crab cakes and a very small portion of crab imperial...both of which lacked any seasoning although they did taste fresh...I will not make a return trip.
