   Loved the ambiance of the place and had a terrific waitress, name was either Corey or Cora? Love their tradition at the end of the meal! You’ll just have to eat there to find out what it is!

   Very good spot for dinner, I order the Mahi Mahi it was Perfectly cooked but the winter squash, spinach, pancetta vinaigrette that came with it was cold but still very good. my friend got the steak frites cooked perfectly . Given that it was very busy food came out fast. Overall will say very nice place if your thinking about checking this place out book 2 days in advance it books pretty fast on the weekends

   10/10 dining experience! We sat on the patio and loved every second. The food is outstanding. Love the roasted oysters, fish tacos, bolognese, mahi mahi, some more! All so good, can't wait to go back

   We were sat upstairs where there were several large groups, which made it hard to hear our server, as well as those at our table. Started with the Ocean Rolls, which were delicious, definitely recommend. The three of us had spaghetti Cacio e Pepe, Rigatoni Bolognese and The Burger with a side of Creamed Spinach. It was shared that the Burger with the skinny fries and Creamed Spinach were good. While the pasta dishes were good, they were extremely oily. I finished the Cacio e Pepe and there was a pool of oil at the bottom of the bowl. You could see the oil sitting on top of the Rigatoni Bolognese as it was being eaten. We had taken the leftovers home and after reheating, so much oil on the plate. 2 of us had stomach issues the evening after our meal.

    The ocean rolls, roasted local shrimp, and steak frites were phenomenal. The staff were attentive and made sure our drinks were always full. Overall a great experience and will definitely be back for those shrimp!
