Great lobster roll, albeit a bit cold. The crab balls and the beer were a perfect match. The clam chowder was delicious!! Recommended!

Amazing flavors! Eat dish is loaded with flavor. If you don't eat shell fish, the menu is a bit limited, but wow the food is good. Not your cheapest place to eat, but you owe yourself a visit.

Made a reservation on Sunday but didn’t need to. Outdoor seating is cramped in traffic but that’s the North End! Food was all delicious, from oysters to mains!

The food was spectacular and I appreciated the level of service. My brother is autistic and very particular. Our waitress was kind and accommodating. The calamari, lobster bisque and lobster ravioli were better than some of the overly hyped restaurants. The cocktails were really good...Read More
