Ampersea has a lovely location and a very kind manager and staff. They have a limited happy hour menu some of which was delicious and fresh (oysters, small but good) and their signature crab pretzel. The baked Brie was rubbery and overwhelmed by berries and nuts. The ceviche was fresh and delicious and was the best thing we ordered. The biggest problem was waiting over 30 minutes for our happy hour drinks. Apparently on a Friday night for an advertised happy hour they had one bartender staffed. That’s a huge mistake. Everyone, including tables around us, were crabby about waiting so long for their drinks.

Popular place with good food. Server Carla was friendly and efficient, despite having several large tables. The noise level can get very loud inside (it was pouring rain so we ate inside on first floor). Parking requires signing in with your car license plate number and state, using a QR code. Fortunately, the hostess helped those who are less tech-savvy than most.
