    Food was awesome. Service amazing! Fun place. Very nice. Slightly overpriced, but what isn’t anymore. I would totally go back. Oyster selection is stellar and the lobster roll was great. Almost traditional New England.

    This was our first time eating here. It was amazing and well worth it. Our server Jeremy was outstanding. He was very tentative and offered great suggestions. His knowledge and attention was above and beyond. The oysters he suggested were remarkable and so were the drinks and dessert. Jeremy was probably one of the best servers we have had in a very long time. Will definitely be going back.

    One of the most overpriced restaurants in the city. $50 lobster roll that was average at best, not even close to worth going here.. Great service from our waitress though.
