We had an outstanding meal at Comfort Kitchen this evening. It’s off the beaten path, yet very successful for good reason. The food was uniformly delicious and unusual. The chefs clearly have a deft hand with spices. The food was extremely flavorful and well seasoned without being too spicy. The staff worked as a team, and the team members were extremely well trained, knowledgeable, helpful, and friendly without being at all intrusive. We look forward to a return visit!

The food was really good from the complimentary cornbread to the Boston cream pie. We had the cold plate with clams, oysters, and shrimp and a cold lobster roll. It was a slow night off-season but still amazing. Our server was attentive and the overall ambiance was nice.
