    Amazing meals for all. I had special request from the dinner menu and they happily honored my request. Stuffed lobster with large shrimp, scallops and crab atop a split whole main lobster with creamy sauce and ritz buttery crumb topping. My friends had calamari and buttered lobster roll with fries. We were stuffed and had to carry some leftovers home. All staff were super helpful and server was a dear, friendly professional cheerful guy.

    Had a great time. Came in early for Appy Hour, then we sat down for our table for our dinner. Food was fresh and good. Sautéed spinach had alittle too much salt, probably just alittle heavy handed pinch.
