    Our server, Rick G, was SO great! He went above and beyond for our party and made our first time there a great experience. Even though I am a vegetarian, he provided me with options other than just a small side and just made everything amazing. Not to mention that amazing food! Can’t wait to come back soon!

    The food was really good. We had fresh oysters, clam chowder, sea scallops, fried clams, and Boston creme pie. The server even brought us a serving of cornbread while we were waiting for the food to arrive. Outstanding all around. The booth was a little tight, but hey, its the oldest restaurant in the US, so maybe folks were smaller back then. :-)

    an outstanding dinner. Cocktails and wine selection were excellent. We enjoyed delicious dozen oysters and brussels sprouts appetizers. they didn’t have steak per se, but had many different kinds of seafood and meat dishes. I had the salmon which is flaky and juicy. Not dry at all and the scallops were excellent as well. Their apple bread pudding dessert was also quite nice. Overall, a nice restaurant for business or personal and I would definitely attend here again.
