    Food and service was very good. Dining room is crowded and tables near the entrance seem to always have someone standing over them since the foyer is too small to accommodate anyone waiting. We made a reservation but had to wait about ten minutes when a couple who did not have a reservation were seated ahead of us at a better table not located near the entrance. Staff was polite and receptive. Food arrived quickly. Can’t beat the seafood heavy menu and the food is always excellent.

    Highly recommend the scallops. I’ve dined here twice and they were so good the first time, had to have them again.

    This is a casual and quaint spot — no fuss dining and it is DELICIOUS!!! Order the lobster ravioli and shrimp. It is rich and flavorful. Lots of locals eat here.
