What people say
Emma Owen
"This is one of the most popular spots for seafood in Boston. We ordered the lobster rolls with some great drinks and WOW. We sat in the main restaurant (in the summer they have a patio area as well) and it felt like a rustic fishing shack - a great ambiance to match the meal. We highly recommend this restaurant!"
