    Rye Street has become one of my favorite places to dine and unwind. The food, drinks, and service are consistently outstanding. I am still dreaming about my rockfish dish. I also had the spinach salad which was very good. My friend had the crab cake which she said was good. And the BREAD PUDDING!!! Was the best ever.

    We returned to the Costas Inn for the crabcake dinner special on a sweltering Monday night. Despite the oppressive heat, the crabcake was a delicious . I’ve been here four times, and tonight’s crabcake was the best I’ve had so far. I requested it well-broiled, which enhances the texture of the crabcake. This 8-ounce cake was generously filled with lump crab meat, complemented by a subtle filler that holds the lumps together. It had a slight moisture, but it tasted good tonight. The service was impeccable, and we thoroughly enjoyed our fourth visit to the Costas Inn.

    The food was amazing and seasoned very well. We had a dozen of the whales crabs. They were very meaty, very flavorful and very delicious. We enjoyed the drinks also and the overall atmosphere. 10 out of 10 and I do recommend.
