Lobster Pot - A Real Treat by Barbara R via Insider Pages on 3/16/2012
The lobster pot on Friday evenings is a reminder of my days in Massachusetts and especially Cape Cod. The pot includes 2 lobsters, corn on the cob, red potatoes, clams and mussels. I love it with Elk Cove Pino Gris or Dr. Loosen reisling.…
Over Rated by Michael G via Insider Pages on 2/24/2010

Power lunchers do business over salads, sandwiches and pasta, while dinner selections include expanded seafood offerings, steaks, more.
Excellent food, service and experience. by shabbygal via Citysearch on 9/7/2005
The dining room is very pretty, however if it is cool outside an organized event of any kind would be wonderful just outside under the twinkly lights and surrounded by plants.
