    Always fantastic. Beware that the restaurant validates parking only after 4:30 pm, so if you are going for lunch, parking in the wharf lot will be expensive. 90 minutes cost me $44.00.

    Food was delicious, serving sizes were generous and the atmosphere was perfect. Would definitely come back again. Lobster roll was enough for sharing and kids menu was more than enough for a 6yo and 10yo. Great beverage menu as well.

    The brand has had some growing pains after the take over; they have had mixed quality and mixed choices on the menu. Currently the revamped choices seem much better and the restaurant is on a better trajectory

    Our server, Rick G, was SO great! He went above and beyond for our party and made our first time there a great experience. Even though I am a vegetarian, he provided me with options other than just a small side and just made everything amazing. Not to mention that amazing food! Canโ€™t wait to come back soon!
