Fantastic ambiance. I had the lobster pot and it was delicious. Clam chowder was delicious. It’s a tad more expensive as it’s a tourist destination but we loved it. Great service.

Chowder, clams casino, oysters on the half shell, shrimp cocktail, local IPA x2. Pretty damn good.

We had a very long wait, told an hour and 15 min. But waited 2 hours. Enjoyed the atmosphere and the history but the food was not worth the price. Returned first fish dish, overcooked. Second came with very small portion and tasted just okay. The history is the only thing you should expect to enjoy.

Good service but some of their plates are a bit pricey for what it is. They should also update their hours. On OpenTable it shows close at 11pm when they actually close at 10pm.
