Overall, this restaurant scores high on all the major categories in my book. Categories such as food menu, bar selection, ambiance and service. We ordered the Maine style roll, Connecticut style, potatoes salad, cauliflower and smoke fish dip. Everything had so much flavor and it was just the right portion size. In addition, their bar offerings are extensive with a wide selection of beers (draft and can), liquor, and wine. All of this deliciousness is wrapped up in a space that is both bright, welcoming, and stimulating. Powered by a friendly and knowledgeable staff makes this place a go to if you are looking to treat yourselves or group with a fun and casual dining experience. We will definitely be back for more.

After an unpleasant experience last weekend Dan and his staff made it up to my wife and I today. Service was top notch and more in line with what we've experienced our previous visits. We were extremely pleased with the meal and are so glad we gave them another chance. We will return and recommend them to our friends.

We've ate there twice and loved the food. Tonight we were seated, got our drinks promptly and then NEVER spoken to again! Extremely disappointing to be ignored while table after table were seated, and had food and drink orders taken and served without so much as a look in our direction.
We took our business elsewhere and doubt we will return.
...and that's a damn shame because we really like the food!
First off, I'm allergic to seafood and shellfish. I always want to try out new restaurants when they open. I never thought I'd set foot here, but as everything else was closed downtown, or packed, I had to see if they had anything for me. I also feared cross-contamination.
I started with the sangria which was great! I then told the server about my situation, so she pointed out items for me. She even told the chefs so they'd be careful! Great to see hiring local folks from the area, pre-gentrification.
I had the Chicken Salad Roll with crispy shallots on top. It was a very large roll & was stuffed to the brim! It came with a slaw that was something I've never tasted before. It was like a mix between a vinegar Carolina slaw and creamy. Very good! I had the Mac n' cheese w/o lobster, and it was great! Will definitely be back so allergy minded folks, take note!
