    Each week they have a burger special on Wednesdayat the bar. This week was the Greek burger. The only thing missing was to hav the bun toasted instead of just cold. The bartender makes good conversation and wonderful cocktails.

    It was a beautiful day, sat out on the deck, ordered chowder, salad, and sushi. The salad was $18. There’s nothing in the bowl. The sushi was OK nothing great but the child it was pretty good.

    Everything was perfect. The staff was super accommodating and gave us a beautiful table. The only critique is that the caprese salad plus salmon was a little pricey. The salad was quite small for $19 although I had plenty of food with the salmon. Otherwise everything was delicious and a great lunch!

    Prompt seating at one of the only booths offered a nice ambience. Overall though the dining room is very open and noisy and a nearby group event didn’t help with sound mitigation. Had hoped for deck seating as this is a bit quieter but a special group event had all tables. As far as food, duck breast special received kudos from one of our party. The halibut with lobster ravioli sounded great but when served was not attractive—everything on the plate was the same color!! Not sure what the corn added. The fish was moist and flavorful. The pasta a bit too stiff for my taste. Strawberry shortcake was light and a great closer to dinner.
