Lobster roll ! Why would anyone eat anything else. This is a good one. I had the big one and split it with my SO. Definitely enough for two when you add some chowder . The bang bang shrimp were yummy
The clam strips , fish and chips , and clam chowder are all decent, but the view makes up for any misgivings.
Very friendly and efficient staff ! Great food and nice atmosphere!
Sit outside and get the lobster roll . Best I've ever had.
Great location. Limited menu but great execution on available items.
Delicious lobster roll and AMAZING view of the water
Lobster Roll is amazing. Make sure to sit outside.
Nice place to have a drink by the docks in Adirondack chairs . Relaxing atmosphere . Expensive, average food.
Sit on lawn in Adirondack chairs with drinks. Sooo relaxing
Great place for a cold beer by the water
Shelly is awesome! Cosmos were fabulous!
Wings and steamers!
The Margarita Maggie is the best!
No draft beer but the view makes up for it
Come by boat! There's always dockage available
Adirondack chairs in the back
Great food and view of the harbor. Plan to go a bit early to avoid a massive line! Definitely worth the weight though. - Jt Ortiz
Fish and chips is great and so is the fried calamari. They pour a nice sized glass of wine too. - Greg G
Great view from the dining room. Be sure to make a reservation. Beach bar is fun too. - Helen Seow
Every single thing about this place is perfect. Coffee Oreo ice cream with peanut butter and marshmallow, or try the 4th of July sundae, when available. SO GOOD. - Jessica M.
Any flavor is awesome. Almond joy is my personal fave but the pistachio is a close second. Tons of pistachios! - Sharon McCabe
My family has been going here for years! The atmosphere is great and they have very good live entertainment! Also a little dock in the back for the kids to play! - Robert Valentine
