    Super busy day to eat out but they handled it best they could. Food was worth the wait.

    This place used to be a safe option casual but decent for us locals. However, today The food in our party ranged from okay to not so good. The bread we had while waiting for our meals was good. But i must mention the wait was ridiculously long for food to arrive. Most disturbing, was that we noticed a local D- grade politician and her family who was seated long after us, was served faster than us, even though they were ill mannered and rude. My family said they would rather not go back. With so many local options, perhaps we wont. We did tip our server well, as she was visibly dismayed by the preparation times, stressed, and still apologetic. But for the rest of the bill, it felt like I paid more than three times what it was worth.

    Mother’s Day visit. They were busy but not full- restaurant was very loud especially with many groups of screaming kids. Food was very good with the exception of the Caesar salad which was so over cheesed you couldn’t taste anything else. Literally like a cup of shaved parm on top. Service was excellent and the view is gorgeous.

    I got the bake stuffed lobster and it was overcooked. My husband got the lobster panini and although it was tasty there wasn't a lot of lobster and it wasn't very big for the price. We will go back and try other dishes when we can eat on the patio overlooking the water.

    It’s a very good restaurant. A little overpriced in my opinion, but our server was very nice, drinks were good and the food was tasty and fresh, though my portion of fish, I felt was small. I feel you should get two pieces of fish instead of one in the fish and chips plate.

    This restaurant is a hidden gem. The menu is interesting and the location is one of the best in the area. Try the coquille st Jacques which is my favorite.

    I booked the restaurant before reading some of the reviews here, and was a bit worried. They must have been on a bad day, because my wife and I had an absolutely wonderful meal. We shared a crab cake for an appetizer, then she had the honey glazed salmon and I had the lobster fettuccini. Both were just outstanding. Neither of us managed to finish - the portions were more than adequate. Our server, Katie, was pleasant and attentive. About the only negative I could mention was that the bartender was a bit slow in getting our drunks, but that was very minor. We spent nearly 2 hours having just a delightful meal. Highly recommended.

    The table that was supposed to be ready was dirty and had leftovers. The waitress, Irene was terrible. Awful personality. She made us feel like we were bothering her and looked like did not want to be there. The food was mediocre and cold. We don't mind paying for quality food, but this restaurant is way over priced. Bathroom was dirty and it smelled like it had not been cleaned for weeks. Too bad because the location is spectacular....the food is not and neither is the service. I'm hoping that a good manager can make improvements and changes because people like me will not return or recommend any one.
