                  Super awesome experience my wife got the turkey sandwich that she loved and I got the lobster roll which was delicious. A little small on the lobster roll but it was still very filling. We did start with the firecracker shrimp which was super good and highly recommendable!

                  Alicia and Hayley were fantastic. Food was very delicious. First time dealing with a restaurant that care about your allergies. Whole experience was great. Make sure you leave early because you’re going to be walking a little distance.
