Our Menu: A Symphony of Freshness

Our menu, inspired by the bounty of the sea and the seasons, is a celebration of fresh, locally sourced ingredients. It's a testament to our commitment to quality and presents a delightful journey for your palate. We offer a variety of options to satisfy every craving, from small bites and starters to comforting chowders and hearty platters.

Begin your culinary adventure with our mouthwatering selection of appetizers. Indulge in succulent steamed littleneck clams, bathed in a fragrant white wine, saffron, leeks, chorizo, cherry tomatoes, and served with crusty ciabatta bread. Or, savor the vibrant flavors of our guacamole and chips, perfectly ripe avocados blended with fresh citrus and spices, accompanied by crispy tortilla chips.

Our salads are a delightful medley of textures and tastes. We feature a classic Caesar salad, with crisp romaine lettuce, tangy parmesan cheese, crunchy croutons, and a creamy Caesar dressing. Our House Salad offers a refreshing blend of mesclun greens, cucumbers, radishes, cherry tomatoes, and a delicate white balsamic vinaigrette.

If you're seeking a truly indulgent experience, our signature Lobster Roll is a must-try. Tender, succulent lobster meat is expertly combined with diced celery and a light lemon mayonnaise, all nestled in a toasted ciabatta roll. For a taste of the tropics, our Fried Mahi Sandwich is a perfect choice. Flaky fried mahi-mahi is topped with crunchy lettuce, ripe tomatoes, and a zesty avocado aioli, served on a toasted ciabatta roll.

Don't miss our famous Fish and Chips, featuring beer-battered codfish that's light, crispy, and perfectly cooked. It's a classic done right!
