I only had the clam chowder and the corn bread but both were excellent. We sat at the bar and were served right away.
Nice place. Service was a bit slow but understandable. The price and what you get is abdurd. I ordered a cold sampler. I got two oysters, two clams and only two shrimp...but it was either 11.00 or 1300... wish they had mentioned that you only get two shrimp in the menu. I felt 17.00 for 1/2 fox oysters is a bit much as well... the above mentioned food, cup of chowder and a beer, over 50.00 and still hungry. Great historical site but I won't eat here again..
Great time at the bar! Quick service, pleasant server, and great atmosphere!
Come for the cornbread and we take bags and bags home for thanksgiving! Great place!
The Best place to try Oysters for the First time. I wish I had a chance to be back here 😃
As wonderful as I expected it to be! Had the lobster and it was very fresh
I was excited to go try this awesome place but was told calling ahead to make a reservation was recommended so I was a little disappointed. We were already in the area so we stopped by to make a reservation. They were able to seat us within 15-20 minutes. We sat at the bar to wait for our table and the bar service was great. The staff was so nice. The food was excellent and the atmosphere was great. I can't wait to go back.
Ambiance was cool, with the history and JFK booth and all that but I think they're relying on their reputation too much. I thought it was overpriced for what you get. Average quality. Chilly service. Not impressed.
Always friendly. Always good. Bartender was knowledgeable and a master of his craft.
