    The food was good. The service was a bit slow (understaffed?). The ocean view is very nice.

    Our server was incredibly friendly and informative. We adored him! Food was perfect. Lobsters were sweet, steamers were not sandy, and oysters were impeccable. Thank you for bringing such an amazing New England experience to my lobster-loving friends from AZ!

    We were a party of 7 which included 4 kids from ages 8-13. Fortunately, we were able to make a reservation and chose to eat in the main dining room to avoid waiting for outside tables. We still had a nice view. Everyone found something they liked on the menu and were happy with their choices. The cocktails were very good too. Kudos to our server “Matt M” who was very attentive without hovering. It was the best service we’ve had in a long time. We would definitely return.

    We came to the area from New York for a beach day for the 1st time and made reservations based off of reviews we read online and were not disappointed. All of us were happy with our meals. The service was very friendly and fast. Atmosphere was very pleasant. I love the outdoor seating as you can look at the boardwalk and beach while dining. Definitely will keep as an option when we come back!

    We ate inside by the fish tank. That was a great seat! We had the steak and scallops. We would highly recommend both.
