    Christmas Eve dinner. Festive, lively atmosphere without being too loud for easy conversation. Service was excellent, beginning with the accommodation of a late addition guest. Staff was there for every need and question yet never made us feel rushed—even though our meal went past closing. I expected great food and was not disappointed. Oysters were particularly good and French-pressed coffee always adds a great finishing touch. My teenagers had a great time and have a new appreciation for real food. Highly recommend.

    The experience was phenomenal and the service class act. The only shortcomings are the desserts limited options.

    The Caesar salad with calamari brought it to a whole new level. Fresh cherry stone clams were delicious. Lobster salad roll was good but the the fried zucchini side was seasoning was off the charts good.

    A wonderful 80th birthday lunch! Great view, excellent service, terrific food (we took advantage of the power lunch), and we spent two hours at table without any pressure to leave.
