We were with a group of 12 people for dinner. We had a reservation and arrived at around 5:00. Our food and drinks were good, but a little
after 7:00 they started clearing out table. We still had dessert and drinks on the table. Without asking, right after getting all of our credit card payments, they cleared the entire table taking my 3/4 full (and fully paid for) drink and several of our party’s desserts. The server told us we needed to leave because there was another big party waiting that needed our table. WHAT???? Our bill was well over a thousand dollars and they put a 20% tip on top of that. While this is fine, they should not have taken my drink or taken the uneaten desserts and kicked us out of our table. I have never experienced anything like this at any restaurant anywhere. They never told us that we only had a 2 hour window for dinner. I cannot recommend this restaurant especially for a large group.

Came here based on a recommendation from a friend who used to live here, and we were not disappointed. My wife had a lobster roll that was filled with tender lobster. I had whole fried clams which were tender and tasty. Along with a glass of local draft beer and a glass of wine made for one of our best meals during our trip around New England.

Came here for a relaxing lunch only to be completely disappointed by the food. There is hardly any lobster in the lobster roll. Mariana was our server and while we at first got a friendly impression from her, we soon figured out how rude she was being to her poor coworkers who looked visibly stressed. It was also strange how there were so many servers there but for some reason Mariana was the only one that seemed to be waiting on tables? Something is definitely fishy with the management here…may have to look into how the employees are treated here. The restaurant experience to me means nothing if its at the hands of people in an unethical work environment.

Huge outdoor area, covered deck so almost every seat has a good view of the water. Food was very good too, the oysters, crab cake, and scallop risotto were all fantastic. Large variety of food options - something for everyone!
