    La Maison Navarre is one of our favorite spots. Typically we go for brunch which is always great. Last night we had dinner. Starting with wine that our server Eric recommended. It was very nice! Next the charcuterie, which we looked to Eric for suggestions. Escargot and carrot soup for apps. Excellent! Then the entree…pork stuffed with sausage and apple…absolutely delicious! Dessert and coffee topped off the evening. Our server was great and it’s always a pleasure to visit with Chef. Quiet, not rushed, friendly people and fabulous food…how can you go wrong?! Really small space so make a reservation!

    Bolognese is one of my favorite Italian dishes; Massimo’s was exceptional as the penne pasta was “home made” plus a choice of serving sizes. My husband looks forward to the veal chop which was also done just as he had requested, rare and charred on the outside. The dining room is very cozy, we felt like we were in Italy.

    Row 34 always delivers!! We had an amazing dinner and feasted on oysters, tuna tar-tar, calamari, dinner rolls, corn bread, chowda, and lobster rolls. The warm lobster roll is my absolute favorite at Row 34. I had some colleagues in town for some business meetings and Row 34 was my 1st thought for an amazing dinner. The ambiance is perfect for dinner out, great music in the background and just a great vibe. Don’t forget to get a chocolate chip cookie or the butterscotch pudding!!
