    I went for lunch and ordered a steak panini which was a roast beef sandwich on white toasted bread.. $20. My boyfriend had the lobster roll which tasted more like a chicken salad which probably had very little lobster in it with all the other stuff they added into it. The pina coladas were not good. The waitress wasn’t that great, the sandwiches prob took half hour or more to come out. The lunch menu overall just wasn’t great options wise. Will not be going back.

    It was my mother’s birthday and we came at her request. Unfortunately, all of Main Street was closed for Pride parade. She got lost! We had a wonderful waitress. Jay says her name was Piper. She was so attentive and kind while we got appetizers and drinks and waited for my lost mother!! We were lucky to have a beautiful day. Thank you for a lovely experience

    Been here many times. Always good. A little disappointed with the calamari. Very overcooked. Other than that all was very good.
