Tasty foodGood valueSeafoodFriendly staff
Quite a decent bistro with mainly seafood dishes. Reasonable price during weekday night for 2 course or 3 course meal, even though their famous lobster roll would need an extra pay. Food is okay, drink selection could be a bit more.
5 star experience for dinner. Firstly, we arrived an hour after Early Bird menu times but were still offered it. That was an unexpected cost saver. The food is on the pricier side, but I'd say you get what you pay for. Service was phenomenal. The chips were more like wedges/crispy baked potato, but still very tasty. My burger was a little pink, which I didn't mind, but just in case you don't want that, be sure to let your server know. Lovely little restaurant that doesn't have cramped seating
Edit: second visit just over a month later and the same standard of good service and food was upheld! This place deserves it's high rating. This time my wife went for lobster which was delicious and I went for a burger again and it was even better than the first time. Staff are so friendly and helpful with the menu. Will be back in the future
I love this restaurant. The food is delicious in my opinion. Staff are friendy & professional.
