We were recommended to go there and when we did the wait was a hour and 45 min, we decided to go to the bar and order which was much faster ( 40 min wait ), The crab cakes were just average ( could buy that flavor at any restaurant) the crab legs were rubbery and not much flavor, it was a experience I will only try once, personally I won't be going back. Bartenders are overwhelmed and very busy.

I had the lobster roll w/butter and the lobster was chewy. My sister had the haddock and it was much better than the lobster roll. I had a lobster roll the day before at Lenny and Joe's that melted in my mouth. It was very busy so there must be something great about it. I would go back and try something different for sure.

Worst customer service, they even brought me the wrong plate twice, so couldn't even eat together as a family without our food getting cold

The food was good. The bartender was totally rude and pretty much ignored us. Not what it used to be. The staff was not good at all

The food was good, but Ambiance was not very impressive, the prize Lobster & Crab dish is way too expensive.
