First time I've been. Great atmosphere. Had the fried clams. Excellent Ipswich whole belly clams. And the corn fritters were wicked good too.

I am a visitor to Boston from North Carolina. My friend and I crossed the bridge of the Boston Harbor and saw the quaint restaurant! Inside was so inviting and the atmosphere was awesome! A good mixture of people! We got the chowder, bouillabaisse, and crab cakes --all delicious! I would absolutely recommend this restaurant to anyone!

We live nearby and it is a favorite of our family. There is nothing better than sitting in the Fort Point Channel eating fresh seafood. The crabcake sliders are my faviorit!!
