A great meal like always. I love their stuffed shrimp, even though I’m usually difficult and ask for shell removed, they do it for me every time. Great visit for my father’s 75 birthday.

The food is a good value. The food itself was delicious. Their soup of night was clam chowder was great. Stuffed shrimp was a little overcooked, but still good. Their stuffed mushrooms were really good. Raviolis were perfect as well. The decor is a little out dated, but it really doesn’t matter. The cocktails are good and a fair price.
