    Always fresh and delicious seafood, prepared perfectly. Service is excellent and the cocktail are great. We love going to this restaurant in the winter. It’s small and cozy and just a homey atmosphere.

    Wonderful lunch. Great oysters from MA and superb lobster rolls. As good a lobster roll as I have had in a long long time. A wonderful service lady who answered every question and well you could not do better anywhere else For us we learned of the restaurant fro our daughter who lives in Westchester. We live in northern NJ but only 32 minute drive. We absolutely will return.

    The food was delicious. I was a bit disappointed that the paella did not have true andouille sausage in it (that I’m used to). It was still a great dish. I will be going back again.

    Music too loud but not too bad due to the separation between the bar and the dining
