Old restaurant with clear historical charm of old Boston. Like atmosphere. Raw oysters were fresh and chilled as good as I have had anywhere. Clam chowder was very good.

Pricey as others have mentioned (that's the only reason for not 5 stars). server was FAB! We asked her the "which is better" question for a couple of things - she didn't steer us wrong in anything! Food- oh so yummy... huge piece of swordfish, littlenecks with linguini (yummmy lots of garlic) fried clams (light and crisp). Cornbread refills happily provided. Not rushed at all..... just a really nice meal! ... then on to Mikes for cannoli!!
