| - A lot of my rating has to do with the fact that it's so nice to have an alternative to all the steakhouses in the area and the ability to by fresh seafood without having to go all the way down to Whole Foods. The "restaurant" side needs some work. We walked in around 4:30 and the seating area which is relatively small, was mostly empty, but just about everyone of them had a reserved sign on it. Supposedly, we got the only available table for 2. Anyway, the waitstaff could use more training. We waited at least 10 mins. before the waitress came over to ask if we wanted anything to drink. She was friendly enough, but seemed unsure about how some things could or could not be cooked. After a few more minutes, she brought out some focaccia bread with an olive oil balsamic dip. Nice touch, but the bread was cold .... like it was taken out of the fridge just moments before slicing and serving. It should have been put in an oven to warm a bit or at least allowed to come to room temperature. I had the lobster roll and my husband had the clam chowder and fish and chips. The lobster roll was good, but not a true New England lobster roll. The roll was lacking in seasoning, mayo and a very buttery roll. There was plenty of lobster meat, but it wasn't very sweet and hence, needed additional seasoning. My husband liked his clam chowder, but I thought it was too thin and gritty from the potatoes. The fish and chips were nicely battered and fried, but also lacked seasoning. The fries that came with both dishes were also good. However, back to the service. I am unsure if it's the kitchen or the waitstaff. The food came out fairly quickly, so it's a little baffling, but nothing was "piping hot". It was all just warm enough to be acceptable .... if that makes any sense. Most of the time, fried foods require that you wait a bit before you bite into them, but we dove right in. There were probably 2 waitress and a hostess on duty and though there were only about 6 tables occupied, they seemed to have a hard time keeping up. Once we handed the waitress our credit card, she was at the register for a good 10 minutes before finally enlisting the help of someone else. All in all, the food was good enough that we will be back (although I would probably not order the lobster roll again) because we like that there's a nice selection of seafood and will definitely be back to purchase seafood to cook at home.
