Customer Reviews
This is a fun place. We stopped by last night, forewarned that we could bring sides and a bottle of wine. It is straightforward and unpretentious. This is a rustic setting, but they don't pretend they're not. The server and cooks were attentive and friendly. The food is good, hot, interesting and reasonably priced for what you get. We had the roasted clam special, roasted corn, the "vegebob" and it was all good. We brought a nice red blend, our own mac & cheese and a hunk of jalapeño cheddar bread, which was outstanding dipped in the balsamic-based sauce on the vegebob. Couldn't have been happier.
As others have said, it's super rustic. We packed a tablecloth, flatware & wet wipes. The only thing we used were the wipes. Utensils & napkins are provided. Staff are warm & welcoming. There are traditional restrooms with running water for use. Fire-roasted clams, corn & lobster were just...next level amazing! Just GO already.
A group of us went after a football game yesterday and you could not have ordered the weather any better. It's amazing to watch them fire roast everything. You can bring whatever you like and they have a limited menu but everyone seemed to enjoy it. Service was a little slow but they were very busy and you must remember to bring cash. You can bring appetizers but most importantly bring any alcoholic beverages as they do not sell them.
Amazing food and atmosphere. Dog friendly. People friendly. Stopped on the way from MA to NY and found out new favorite break place just a few minutes off 95. Now we know to pack some byo sides or bevvies but otherwise everything was great* *Stick with the hot food, key lime dessert was underwhelming -- go across the street for ice cream if you need a sweet treat.
Awesome experience if you enjoy outdoor seating. The food was of high quality. The patrons of the restaurant were familiar, you can tell it wasn't their first visit. They came prepared. It's BYOB, you can bring beer,wine, if anything stronger, drink responsibly. The special clams are amazing, along with the lobster and corn. Oh, and let's not forget the tree stump seating, Such a plus to my experience.....
