Tasty, Overpriced, Food Cost trickery

by barsaregood

I've been a few times, and in terms of taste, I have not had a bad meal. With that sad, it is overpriced. They use classic restaurant food cost trickery - the dish you receive is VERY light on the protein, and VERY heavy on the accompanying side dish. You'll get a small piece of fish, and a PILE of frieds, or salad, or veggie to have the appearance of a big meal. When in reality, you are paying a lot of money for VERY little fish. I've worked in restaurants for years which is how I know this. There is no other fish place in the neighborhood, and it is tasty, but be prepared to overpay.

Go, but stay indoors.

My wife and I went on a cool summer night, and enjoyed the backyard space. That is, until four legged vermin showed up. After the third appearance we moved indoors (along with a few other diners) and enjoyed the rest of the meal there. A free round would have been nice, but they only took one beer off of the tab.

Like the other reviewers, this place can be expensive. $33 for a lobster roll slightly longer than a hot dog bun just won't cut it. The rest of the meal was good, though (good steamers, salty grilled sardines), and the hot fudge sundae was the best I've had in a while.

We will be returning, but will stay away from any "market price" entree, and will stay indoors.

• Pros: Great selection of beer on tap, good hot fudge sundae, receptive service
• Cons: Expensive "market price", ratty backyard

Overpriced and not tasty

by larrue

The food here was mediocre at best. It was totally overpriced- fish and chips was about $15.... There are so many other great places to go to eat and drink..... this place is not worth it...

• Pros: nice garden
• Cons: expensive, not tasty
