    We always love coming here. The staff makes us feel welcomed and the seaside ambience couldn't be more classic. The varied menu gives us plenty of options. I would say the food is good, but we don't necessarily come here for outstanding food. Nevertheless, we always have a delightful time, and I'm happy to support this local icon that has been in the family at this location for over 100 years! Recommend!

    For us, this was a special occasion meal and the food and the service were top shelf. We were a little taken back by the sticker shock, but the drinks, steak, salad, lobster, and appetizers were so good, I can’t complain. However, we were very surprised by the dress of the clientele. People were wearing sweats and sneakers in what I consider to be a very expensive and high end restaurant. Our waiter Pierre was an absolute pro. This is not a place for me to frequent often but maybe once or twice a year for a special occasion.

    Went there on Veterans Day for free entree. Was pleasantly surprised that ALL entrees were free for vets and not a limited menu. Got a filet mignon cooked to perfection. Normally $48…excellent service… Thanks Tim Mcloones. 👍
