Update 5/16/24: Had a delicious lunch with my mother. I tried the clam chowder for the first time, it was boiling hot and served with crackers, I enjoyed it. Ordered a full plate of shrimp (12) with french fries, amazing as always!_________________________________________ Excellent seafood restaurant, our meals always come out hot and are quickly served. They have great lunch specials, half and order of shrimp or fish with fries or baked potatoe, and a tea.

Decade after decade the seafood is fresh and delicious! Awesome beer options and the wait staff is efficient. We went in for several drinks as we sampled the cuisine as usual, no problem. Not noisy or pushy. I took the fried shrimp this time though I usually ask for the Fisherman’s variety plate... ...

Fried shrimp and oysters of course, but what's really good is the homemade tartar sauce!
