Just ate here last night. Service was great, staff was friendly, but a little disappointed in the quality of food. Calamari was not great. We also had the sword fish, shrimp and scallop pasta which were good but not what we expected especially for the price we payed. Would try again.

Great food. Been here many times, we live less than an hour and a half away. Service was horrible. And it want busy, we were there at 3pm, maybe 20 people in the whole place.

I am guessing that being the end of the busy summer has taken a toll on the kitchen and staff. Five of us went to dinner at 6 PM on a Friday night. It was busy, with a little wait, but not too bad. Two of us ordered pizzas, and they were ok, and raised the score of this review. The other three had dishes almost inedible. The shrimp on skewers were way overcooked and dry. The clam Crowder was barely warm and bland. Worst of all were the maple bacon-wrapped scallops. Waaaaay overcooked, the sauce co overpowered the taste of th... read more
