Delicious clam chowder and sandwich rolls. Highly recommend the fried shrimp roll. Good portion size and flavour. Make sure to get there early on weekend as it fills up quickly so there is a wait if you arrive after 12pm.

Quite simply one of the best seafood places I've been to. I went alone and had the dressed lobster roll, an oyster and the key lime pie. Safe to say all of them blew me away. Looking forward to bringing family next time. The only reason I (almost) gave 4 stars to service was that I had to wait quite a but hope thats just one time issue since the place was pretty packed.

Super nice people, awesome views, good food! There are plenty of parking spots.. and many tables! I’d suggest making a reservation to be able to sit on the tbales of a better view! The baked oysters were very tasty and good, the manhatan chowder was a little too salty for our taste, but the new england one was great! Seafood pasta was also great tasting huge portion and everything tasted fresh! Their breads were not tasting super fresh though and we got cold bread which we thought was odd! The place also has some stairs that lead down close to the beach as well! Good place to sit, relax and have your coffee! Cleanness: clean Seating: indoor , outdoor Menu: diverse but mostly seafood People: super nice, helpful and polite Noise level: not too noisy! Parking : plenty of Portions: rather large! Price: fair Food: good Service Dine in Meal type Lunch Price per person $30–50 Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5 Recommended dishes Seafood Spaghetti

Visited on a rainy Friday night in January for a birthday celebration. No wait for a table at 7:30 at night. Our server Tima was fun, friendly and full of helpful suggestions. We enjoyed some tasty cocktails: a Pama 75 and Apricot Sour which were prepared well We tried both Manhattan and New England clam chowder and both were full of flavor and loaded with the most tender clams! The New England chowder was not too heavy. The sour dough bread was also delicious. The fried Calamari appetizer was the best we’ve ever had anywhere and a HUGE portion. The sauces were Excellent. For dinner we had the Cioppino which was full of mussels, clam, shrimp, fish and crab. The naked lobster 🦞 roll was LOADED with a Huge portion of lobster and we definitely highly recommend getting this dish. The Local halibut was good but not a huge portion. Tima was very nice and brought a birthday dessert that we all Enjoyed. There was a blues band playing and they finished up around 8:30. The atmosphere was fun and lively. The weather was too rainy for outside but the patio looks amazing and must be enjoyable in good weather. Can’t wait to try again Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5

Cozy outdoor seating. Friendly staff. Good working heaters since it was cold and rainy for a bit. We didn’t sit inside but could see it was crazy crowded inside for a Wednesday at lunchtime, but this was the week between Christmas and New Year's so maybe it was partly from the holiday crowd. Parking is tight. We found parking on the highway, though the close spots were going quickly.
