    This was my second time at this restaurant and it did not disappoint! The ambiance is always A1 but this time they decorated for Christmas and it was so nice. I will say this is a very lively loud restaurant so if you’re looking for something quiet, this might not be the place for you. The service is always great & the food and drinks are also very delicious.

    I went there for lunch on a Saturday. The place was mostly empty, the reservations were not required. I had the New England clam chowder and it was one of the best i ever had. I also had a salad with shrimp. The shrimp were cooked perfectly, not overcooked like many places. My dining companion had the chicken tenders with fries. She is not much of a seafood eater. She said the chicken lacked seasoning and the fries tasted like they were cooked in old oil. My companion has fast food restaurant experience from her teenage years. I would go back to try the big seafood boils they offer. A table nearby to ours ordered a boil and it smelled amazing.

    The food was good. We had a party of 4. In all we had 5 meals. We wanted to have the homemade gnocchi to share as an appetizer, but they ended up not having it. We ended up sharing the lobster ravioli, which was good. For our entrees we had the seafood risotto, which was excellent, the cod special (which was good but very small piece of fish), chicken dish and the yellowfin tuna special (was just ok). Overall, we had a nice time and will go back if in the area
