Food and Service was outstanding as usual. A shout out to Jessica our server. She was very friendly and did an excellent job. We had an early reservation so the noise level was very quiet until the end of dinner when the restaurant filled up.

Food was delicious and service was excellent! Portions were very generous!! We had a great evening celebrating my birthday. They gave me a free desert and the staff signed a birthday card for me! The only negative was that it was chilly in the restaurant so bring a sweater or jacket!

Had great service. My husband and I had lobster, which was cooked to perfection, and the sides of horseradish whipped potatoes, salad and garlic green beans were absolutely delicious. Our server checked on us frequently, which is always nice. The atmosphere is warm and friendly and is a great neighborhood seafood restaurant. We also like that glasses of wine are reasonably priced. We generally don’t get dessert, but we shared a piece of chocolate mousse pie, which was devine.
