Far from great seafood. My fish had so much batter, parm and butter I couldn’t taste the fish at all. The people seem nice enough, but all four family members’ dinners were like diner seafood.

My husband and I went here for his birthday and we’re not disappointed. Our meals were great, the service was excellent and the carrot cake was delicious. Highly recommend.

We were leaf peeping and stopped here for lunch. We both got the half sandwich with the chowder. Excellent. Just enough. Waitress was friendly and provided excellent service.

We went without a reservation and had to sit at the bar but we enjoyed it. A very cute restaurant but also quite busy. We split the seared ahi tuna appetizer which was the best part of our meal! Our entree which was the stuffed shrimp was just average. I would try something else next time, but overall the food was good.
