   We've dined here before and tried something different this visit. The vegan burger lacked flavor. Needs work. The special seafood pasta was very good. There was about 5 clams, few shrimp and some crab I believe. It was tasty and a good amount of food. Shout out to our server, Kim. Very friendly, helpful and attentive.

   We made a reservation for 7:30pm and arrived on time. There was no table for us ! We had to wait till 8:15pm to be seated and had dinner around 9pm as a new beer keg needed to be setup for the beer chosen so the first drink was delayed for a while. This was a celebration of my 60th birthday and my husband and I almost left at 8pm because there was nothing done. However the hostess said it would 5 min more which ended up another 15 min longer. I don't really know what they did to our reservation to cause this to happen. Other folks didn't seem to have to wait as long as we did. Was really disappointed with the experience.

   I first want to start by Saying the Food was amazing !!! However they were short staffed and the service lacked the level we paid for! When the waiter did stop to our table - it was for 2.5 seconds and the whole table was not able to place order for more drinks. The food service was lacking as well because three of us got our food and by the time the fourth person got theirs the rest of us was done eating. So, Yes the Food was Great and the service needed help.

   We had a great time. The restaurant is small and so it can feel crowded. The calamari is a must, was delicious. Great service and ambience.
