A neighborhood gem. My 2nd, my husband's 1st visit. It was lunch on a Tuesday. It was busy. Our waiter, Megan, was very nice and attentive. She made great recommendations. The devil eggs and crab dip appetizers were both on point. My husband had spaghetti. He loved it! I had the lobster roll. It was ok. The serving size was good, but it could use a bit more flavor, so I added some of the crab dip to it. Michael, the GM, was nice as well. Love the weekday happy hour. I'll certainly be back to experience more menu items.
