Our server was great. However, I would only come back for the appetizers. We were not impressed with the two dinner entrees we received.

The Halibut was lacking flavor and seasoning. The lobster rolls were the best part of the meal.

For the first time I can say this. It was too much service. I think someone stopped to check on us about every 5 minutes in the one hour and fifteen minutes we were there. The manager - at least 3x, server 6x, water/removal of our plates, etc. It was truly too much. Otherwise - great food and wine. We really like coming here.

Family Birthday dinner was perfect. Servers were knowledgeable, helpful and attentive without being intrusive. They took special care to keep our 5 year old granddaughter happy. The light jazz music was lovely. Food was excellent and portions generous.

Husband and I went for my birthday to have dinner! Amazing food I had the lobster bisque and scallops! My husband had the new england clam chowder and sea bass. Everything was so wonderful. They gave me a cannoli free of charge for dessert with berries and written happy birthday in chocolate and a candle! Chrissy was an excellent server! We will definitely be back again!
