     Bathrooms were filthy!!! And do something about the parking situation. Don’t make people pay to pack if they’re coming to eat and spend money in your restaurant.

    We had a wonderful meal at The Mooring. We were initially seated right next to the kitchen and it was noisy and a bit chaotic so we asked to move and they graciously seated us in a much quieter area. Food was fabulous. The giant biscuit appetizer was AMAZING! I highly recommend trying it. Bouillabaisse, crab toast, clam chowder & the lobster roll were all excellent!

    Great service, great food, delicious drinks. Allergy conscious! My daughter has a severe tree nut allergy so eating out safely is tough. Our server confirmed her allergy as soon as we sat down and the kitchen was very careful with all items we ordered. A wonderful experience for us. We will definitely be going back!
