It's a perfect spot for special occasions, featuring an impressive seafood tower and delectable clam chowder.

Dined here back to back days. The first night 11/11, we walked in (also hotel guests) with no reservations around 630ish and the host did not greet me warmly (already felt like it was going to be a bad experience), she asked if I had a reservation, I said no and she said 20m wait. Literally that was it. I sit down on the bench and my friend asked if we could sit at the bar. Now why wouldn’t she tell us this or offer? It’s the same menu too. So she says yes and we walk to our own table. Just wasn’t friendly or helpful. Now Cambria (sorry if I misspelled) was our server and she was incredible which made up for the lack of good service at check in. We praised them for their excellent service. They were efficient, helpful and kind. Please share this recognition with her. The 2 people that helped us had a very different type of service training imo. Cambria was incredible and clearly cares about service.

The policy not to seat us until the entire party arrives for large parties is stressful for me since my brother is always late. Fortunately, they were not busy on a Monday night and seated us before he arrived. Large tents have been erected blocking the view of teh river... don't know how long they will be there. Food was excellent.
