Great service and wine list. I had the pan roasted seafood which was great but my friend had the oysters au gratin which were not good/fresh and the chowder wasn’t great. Beautiful place, great atmosphere. 

Business response:

Although we're disappointed your friend didn't enjoy the oysters au gratin, we're happy you liked the pan roasted seafood and the wine list, Ann. We look forward to welcoming you both back again so we can show you a much better dining experience than before. -Charlie, General Manager

Food was great, bar staff was good but gave me a different drink than what I ordered. Bar was crowded though, so I would go back
