    A lovely experience at an early dinner here on a busy Saturday night was perfect on a very cold evening. Thank you! We are new in Charlestown and it’s so nice to discover a local place that serves excellent food. The scallops were big and juicy and sitting on a delicious bed of Brussel sprout hash. The swordfish was cooked perfectly and lied on a risotto mushroom base. Wow! All superb!

    Yummy cocktails to start. Fabulous dinner: chicory, foie gras walnut salad + octopus + lumache for me. Dining companions had the lasagna, bay scallops, and cobia. All were delicious. Katie recommended a delightful champagne to enhance the first courses. Pammy’s continues to be a gem.
