They have cocktails (alcohol and without alcohol), beer and a great wine list. Below is an interesting Hibiscus Ginger Sparkler we tried, but they also had a Grapefruit Rosemary Sparkler and one made with Lavender and Limeade.

The Ambiance

The vibe is very youthful with upbeat music and modern decor. Funky lanterns hang from the ceiling and there’s a combination of square wooden tables and booth-style seating. There are two open kitchen areas where you can watch the chefs at work. On the raw bar side, you can see the fresh lobster and oysters on-ice.

The Food

Seafood is mostly the order of the day here and they’re known for their fabulous seafood combo towers (think: lobster, oysters, shrimp, ceviche). That said, they also offer a wide variety of other choices, such as salads (Concord Louie, Harvest Salad, Cobb and Caesar), as well as fun appetizers to share (Baked Oysters, Fried Calamari, Organic Chicken Wings, Corn Bread, Brussels Sprouts, Cast Iron Mac and Cheese and more), and sandwiches as well. They offer a full raw bar (shrimp, oyster and uni shooters, etc) and fresh lobster. Yum!

We had to try their Lil Yachty, which is the smaller of the two Seafood Towers. It came with 12 oysters, 6 Shrimp, Ceviche and a Half Maine Lobster. Lobster lovers will also appreciate their Lobster Thermidor which is made with Lobster cream, Gruyere, Parmesan, and Bread Crumbs served with white wine roasted mushrooms.

There are also several fish options, such as Spanish Style Shrimp Skewers (wood grilled), Blackened Wild Local Rock Cod with Broccolini and Roast Garlic Mashed Potatoes, Seared Salmon with White Beans, Radicchio and Winter Square, Hazelnut Crusted Mahi Mahi with Jasmine Rice and Broccolini and your standard Fish & Chips option as well (great if you have kids in tow).

If you are indeed traveling with kids, their sandwiches, Dry Aged Smash Burgers, Tacos and Chicken Wings all make great choices.

If Brussels Sprouts are on the menu, 99% of the time, Anthony will order them, so we tried their version. Here, they make them with a Thai Vinaigrette, Peanuts and Herbs — the sauce had a tangy sweet taste. Rest assured, we polished them off.
