We chose this restaurant to celebrate our wedding anniversary, and it did not disappoint! We had excellent service, and the food was nothing short of amazing. We started with the artisan bread with the citrus butter and the stuffies with a jalapeno jelly. My husband had the crispy salmon, and I chose the lazy man's lobster (YUM!!) We sat outside on a beautiful evening, and the ambience was exactly what I hoped it would be. Of course, you pay good money for good food and great service, and it was worth every penny!

Excellent dinner with 3 others. Seafood Cioppino and Scallops were the prime courses chosen by the group. The raw oysters (from Narragansett, not the local Great Salt Pond) were very good, and moderate brine. French 75 cocktail was excellent, but the famous Blackberry Martini was lacking…tasted like straight vodka with coarsely puréed blackberries. No sweetness nor lime twang of the famous Riker concoction of years ago. Needed some tweaking. Had the martinis been like before, easily a 5 star dinner. Server Sydney was excellent!

Great cocktails, appetizers and oysters. Impressive service. Musty smell indoors. Main dishes weren’t great - especially the seafood cappelini (very bland watery sauce, pasta had no flavor).

We had a good meal, our server was outstanding. All staff we encountered were friendly and helpful. It was a lovely setting, just off the main road hustle but felt miles away because it was such a calm area.

Beautiful dining room. As it was October we sat inside. During summer months we would sit outside. The gardens are beautiful. The menu tends to be a lot of fish but there are other options. Highly recommend.
