The food here was amazing. Try the barking tea for sure. The salmon was cooked impeccably, and the sweet potato fries were bomb. Also, if you're in the mood to indulge (--->the crab dip 😉😋).

My food personally was delicious. I got a scallop, shrimp, and lobster special of the day with spinach and squash all covered in some yummy sauce. However, my mom's corn wasn't cooked and was cold, and our waited never once refilled our drinks, nor was around for us to find to him we needed a refill. We finally got a refill after we paid. We came at 2pm in the afternoon during the week and there was tons of open tables so I'm not sure why the service was so poor.

Absolutely outstanding -- possible the finest lobster roll I've ever had in my life (and makes so many of the others seem more like mere sandwiches).

We're from Texas. This was the best lobster we have ever had. Our waitress was the best! Well worth the wait.

We loved our dinner. Our server was very knowledgeable about the menu, took the time to answer all our questions and our meal was awesome.

It was okay, I've had better. Ordered the lobster roll it was good but waaay overpriced & crab cakes were about the same...overpriced but good. Had the same meal a place ten miles down the coast for 1/2 the price.
