We had the pleasure of being served by Erica who couldn’t have been a better server. Her knowledge, attentiveness and caring for our experience was second to none. The food was delicious from the Tartar to the Halibut and the baked clams to the peppermint chocolate cake, there was not a morsel left on any of our plates. Thank you Erica!!
