Review from Andrew M.

Been coming here every summer since I was but a wee lad. I always make sure to frequent this fine establishment at least once during my far-too-brief vacation. This is as much a part of my childhood as the beach it overlooks.
Careful, though. You WILL be full upon finishing. Maintain a leisurely pace and be sure to respect the food.

Amazing dinner here over the weekend. We sat upstairs, which I imagine would have a nice view of the ocean but it was too dark out. The restaurant was really cozy and romantic, and not stuffy or pretentious like a lot of fine dining.
Our server was so helpful and friendly and gave great recommendations. I started with a caesar salad and fettucine carbonara, the carbonara was better than a majority of the places in the North End. My husband had a mixed greens salad with a really good gorgonzola vinaigrette and Island Lady. Really fresh seafood.
Then, our server told us we had to try the hot fudge icecream croissant. Perfect.
Good size portions, prices are what you would expect for the quality of food. Would absolutely go back.
There was a party going on in the banquet room upstairs . It looked beautiful, and I am absolutely going to keep them in mind if I have any event to plan in the future. -

I went here for restaurant week, I got the wild boar pate, duck breast and pumpkin gelato. My boyfriend had the cheese ravioli, chicken Normandy and apple crisp. The food alone deserves four stars. The service was less then exceptional. Our waitresses was not warm or friendly in the least. Very cold and no nonsense. Put a bit of a damper on our romantic night out. If the wild boar pate is ever offered again I would highly suggest trying it.

This restaurant is an unusual combination of gourmet food and a casual setting.
The restaurant appeared to attract all comers. We were three guys, we saw many couples, we saw some couples who were obviously in love, and we saw some families.
Locals appear to love the place, as many tables were interacting with one another.
The food was very, very, very, very good. I had the penne and seafood in a cream vodka sauce. The next time that I return, I'm ordering the same meal again. It was that good.
I ordered a glenlivet single malt scotch on the rocks. So, I can't really comment on the cocktails. It's hard to get this wrong, and they didn't get it wrong.
Next time, I want to sit at the bar on the second floor. The view of the beach, from that location, will only make the experience that much better. -

Located right across the street from the beach, this place has a nice view and great food. I came here with my boyfriend, who has a shellfish allergy. While there are many entrees which boast the frutta di mare, we unfortunately could not order it. That said, some of our choices seemed limited. Hence the four star rating. Despite this minor setback, which we have come to expect from many seafood restaurants, everything was wonderful.
This place is very laid back. The servers don't wear uniforms. Our server, Adrien timed everything perfectly and was there whenever a glass needed to be replenished, but was never overbearing.
For an appetizer we tried the Thai spring rolls, which were baked and not fried. They were really good, but there was only one other non-shellfish appetizer. For our entrees, I had the lamb, which was a special. It was cooked to perfection with a really thick, salty mushroom sauce. My boyfriend had the veal pasquale which I loved. It's topped with provolne and proscuitto that melts in your mouth.
What I loved the most was that Adrien never rushed us and we sat and enjoyed our bottle of wine at our leisure. Then ordered desert. Another great thing is that on a warm night, you can walk off dinner right on the beach. -

Review from Christine C.

Gourmet food in an unpretentious setting with an ocean view and a great wine list. Who could ask for more? This restaurant has such a go with the flow atmosphere that I have felt comfortable no matter how I am dressed. The upstairs offers a nice view of the water during daylight and a romantic setting in the eveing. The music is never too loud so the upstairs (which I believe is carpeted) is a great place for conversation. On a busy night the downstairs tends to be a bit noisey, but the food is worth it.

Review from Eric B.

Interesting place. It definitely appeared to be a hotspot for the locals. I got the impression that there were tons of regulars and almost felt a little out of place. It has this weird "casually elegant" feel to it. Causal atmosphere, but elegant food. I ordered a pasta dish with shrimp, scallops and lobster and only got one small piece of lobster in it. Overall, it was still very good, but pretty expensive. Being a big craft beer drinker, I was disappointed by the fact that they didn't serve beer at all. The wine was still good, though. Overall, I had a fine meal and staff was relatively friendly, but I thought it was overpriced and probably won't make it back there again any time soon. I don't think it's a three-star restaurant, but I'd say I had a three-star experience.
