The quality of your dish will depend directly on the chief who works at kitchen. We visited this restaurant four times, impressions of the first three were above any praises. The fourth time disappointed us. My linguini were, almost, shipped in oil, and tomatoes were sour. It is sad that one unsuccessful time spoiled the previous impressions of visit of restaurant. I do not recommend to take a dessert - the woman who prepares them the hot fan of sugar))

A small restaurant with big flavor & great service. The chef came to our table and asked if we enjoyed the food. We did - from start to finish.

On a raw misty evening we found our usual favorites closed for the season and Trip Advisor lead us here. It being a Monday we had our choice of seats and we were greeted quickly. Our drink orders taken we perused the menu which contained mostly Italian items, but also included Greek, seafood and traditional items. My wife had baked haddock 6 large pieces with salad and baked potato. I had liver served with bacon and onions salad and baked potato. All portions were huge, enough for several meals at home. With some protein the salads would be enough for a meal! A great neighbor hood restaurant, not far off the main drag. Thanks Trip Advisor

Went here for lunch. Food is really really good! Very tasty. Veggies are fresh and crunchy and not over cooked! Theyâve lunch special which cost $10. Comes with soup or salad and the main dish. Serving is good enough for 1 person. When we went there sushi was not available. Thereâs construction in the area so a bit confusing as to where the restaurant is. But we found the place!

One of my favorite places to grab a cold beer, some shucked clams and/or oysters and some fried belly clams. Have been faithful for last 15 years. But it needs a bit of TLC. Improvements in the port-a-johns....nice improvement over last couple years. But the upper deck tables are delaminating, and where have all the umbrellas gone? With so few umbrellas the sun fries your patrons and my cold PBR warms up to non drinkable in 5 minutes. Really still like the grilled fish ruben, but please bring back the fried pickles. Will continue to come to watch the happenings at the inlet ilof the niantic River, but please kick it back up a notch. Don't want to come out of obligation... But because the food, drinks and scenery are one of a kind. Please make me love you agsin.

This place was flat out, no kidding amazing. The Hot Lobster Roll was I like anything I have ever eaten before. The oysters are incredibly fresh with homemade cocktail sauce. Staff was great, place was very clean and prices were reasonable. We are only in town a few days but will definitively go back before we leave.

5 adults and 2 children arrived at 6:45. Waited to be seated because there was no staff maning the hostess desk. No other patrons waiting. No outside seating available so we sat inside. Waited way to long for a waitress to come so no water or bread. It seems our waitress was working our table as well as ones upstairs! She would disappear for long stretches of time. Other tables came aand went long before we finished our meal. Got my requested 2nd drink when the bill came. Food was good - service sucked!
