    What a lovely ambience this restaurant offers. Our server was extremely solicitous, and the wine and beer menus were extensive. Food was also very good.

    The Thanksgiving buffet was great and I don’t think I’ll ever want to cook at home again! We completely enjoyed the turkey and stuffing, the mashed potatoes, gravy, sprouts, sweets, Mac and cheese, salmon, ham, roast beef, in short, everything. Nice, friendly service, and it was nice to be able to hear one another at the table. Seating was very comfortable and nicely spaced. A hit for our party of 6!

    Kayla is a great server and there’s often live music (last night was a little loud) but normally it’s a good volume. Good cocktails, decent food and cozy vibe- it’s one of our go to places. Highly recommend only wish they had more lite & healthy vegetarian options.

    Excellent all around at a very good price. Clam chowder had plenty of actual clam meat and my burger was perfect. The waitress was great. Wish I could recall her name. Try the blueberry pomegranate cider!

    Spicy seafood risotto was not the least bit spicy. It was also lukewarm at best. Not very appetizing at all. I ordered a side Caesar salad that had the slightest amount of dressing on it. Hardly any flavor. Being in a slight rush, I didn’t send anything back, though I did let our waitress, who was very nice, know at the end. Did not order dessert. Will not go back.

    Dinner was very nice. We had to sit inside or wait for an outside table even with a reservation.
