Nice atmosphere, but extremely overpriced. The chowder is just okay and the oysters were$3 each..way too much.

The food and service were excellent! We had the root beer they make and it was absolutely the best root beer I've ever had. I went with my fiancé who loves seafood, while I don't like it. I had the Mushroom ravioli and it was very good! I just wish they had a few more options for people who want to visit this historic place but don't really like seafood.

We had a fabulous dinner with friends on Sunday, January 15th. Together with friends from the U.K. and Australia, we were a party of 9 expertly attended to by Stephanie (with the short blonde hair). It was dinner and a show with her and she handled our "Door NUmber 1, Door Number 2 and Door number 3 checks without a hiccup. Thanks for a fantastic and memorable meal!
