I ate there with my date Nov 2nd, looking forward to this we were disgusted with the amateur waiter, I had shrimp scampi it was fair at best, she had Burnt overcooked fried clams, complained and was told the manager would be over to see us never showed up. I would of give. 1 star but I don't hate anything. Won't get fooled again. PS The coffee was putrid
