Stopped in for mimosas, steamed clams and uni. They aren't lying about the uni! This was my first time trying uni, and I couldn't have picked a better place to do so. It was so fresh and literally melted in my mouth.

Also, there is such great service here! The staff is really friendly and patient. I would come back again for sure.

I happily drive 100 miles to eat here. The setting and food keep us coming back.
We like to get Lobster Bisque, Scallops with Shrimp pasta, and Rock Crab.
It’s simple, not overly seasoned or greasy seafood. Service is usually quick and parking on the pier is a plus, even if a little scary. Big plus to my dog lovers, as pups can dine on the patio.

Incredible food. The location is great, but be prepared for a long wait. They don't take reservations, so you need to be nearby for the waiting list. Pricey, but you get what you pay for. The local caught sea urchin is incredible. Great for a nice night out, and essential if you want dinner by the water.

My friend read reviews and this is why we decided to visit. We were so happy that we went because the food that was recommended was delicious; lobster pasta, lobster roll, clam chowder soup in bread…. We also bought onions rings which were delicious!!! My goddaughter had sea urchin which none liked except her.
The only thing we didn’t know is that it would be very windy and cold in July if sun is not out. Be sure to take a thick jacket, we were cold but once we got our food we forgot about it. 😃 There is very limited seating inside and not so much outside BUT if you select to be seated outside you will be seated faster. The wait was about 30-45 minutes but once seated the service was super fast. Our server was Emma and she was very proficient, friendly and kept table clean!!
We parked on street versus on the pier because wasn’t sure there would be parking. I would wear sneakers to walk ok wooden pier because very uneven.
I HIGHLY recommend this restaurant!!!!

We got the shrimp and scallop pasta with a wine sauce. We could taste the freshness of the shrimp, and the scallops were perfectly cooked. The fried oysters and scallops were done perfectly and were delicious. Crab cakes were standard. I wouldn't recommend it. The lobster roll was delcious and was generous with the lobster. The ciopinno in the bread bowl was alright, but the crab was too soft to crab open properly, and the bread eventually became too soggy. It was good for the picture, though.
