“ We had a great night on the water here. Our waitress was excellent and very attentive. Fried zucchini was terrific. Lobster and shrimp on the salad was a good portion and the chicken fingers were a hit with my husband who does not eat seafood. We would definitely go back! ”
“ The food was amazing here, and the service was good. The view from the deck was great, and it added to the laid back atmosphere. The lobster roll was super fresh and delicious. The clam chowder was some of the best I’ve ever had. The stuffed haddock was good and the shrimp scampi special was very very good. I would definitely recommend the fried zucchini as an appetizer. ”
“ Really great food and options! We were able to get our group of 7 seated outside with no wait at lunch on a Friday. A few of us split platters between two, which was perfect. The view was incredible, and the service was great. ”
“ I totally recommend this place! As a tourist I didn't felt like one at this restaurant. It was just the perfect place to enjoy a lobster and a very unique clam chowder. We ordered A lobster feast that came with corn on the cob, like 20 mussels, and a big lobster this was so easy to eat and so tender. and a side of melted butter. Also ordered a clam chowder bowl. This chowder had bacon in it it was an unexpected delicious flavor. Jimmy drink. All that and athe amazing view for 71 WITH tip. Food 5/5 Service 5/5 Place 5/5 Price 4/5 ”
“ Split a lobster roll with my wife and daughter! It was perfect for the three of us!! The service was amazing, the waitress gave my daughter a toy to play with and made us feel very welcomed! Worth every dollar! ”
“ To all my melaninated followers who are scared to try things in fear of getting treated differently, this place was a gem. No one except patrons ofc was standoffish. Once folk started seeing other ppl speak to me, they would come chime in. It's fun to be the center of attention when it's good vibes. The , and mussels were delicious. Never had a fresh plate like I did when there. I spent 100 for a 50 plate of seafood, some lobster bisque and a few drinks. That's not bad in my opinion with the view and hospitality I experienced while there. Pics below!! That boat almost blew up while I was there... joking but it did that with no one on board. Spooky!! Lol I will definitely come back again when I'm driving thru! Thanks for making my first time in the North NE a great one to remember! ”
“ Quick service. Outdoor waterfront. Great food. An historical location thrown in too! Great combination. Husband said the BEST fried clams and fried scallops EVER. My broiled scallops were good. He wants to make this our regular stop on our way up to Maine now. ”
“ This restaurant was recommended by a local tour guide and we really enjoyed the seafood and especially the lobster roll and lobster salad. It’s a very popular place and had great indoor and outdoor seating. Our server was super nice and we were very happy with our waterfront view. ”
