Our food was excellent. Had clams casino, fried oysters, Neptune salad & angel hair pasta with shrimp. It is very pricey, but good. Very nice ambience.

Best fine dining restaurant open on the east coast. Truly an elegant setting with exquisite cuisine. Richard, the Maître D' is incredibly friendly and a real wine expert. Highly recommended.
