| - I felt the need to download, join, and write a "yelp" after my experience the other evening. When you think of pub food I believe most of us expect greasy burgers and wings, at least something to soak up the excessive beer. I walked into Silky's (having been there before and leaving under impressed) with that mind set but instead was blown away by the menu.
It contained your standard burger this, nachos, salads, etc. It was also paired with the Chef's daily creations which were mostly heavier dishes. My friend and I settled on New England Clam Chowder and coconut shrimp as an appetizer followed up by the crab cake sandwich to split. The soup was okay, very filling, creamy, just enough veggies and seafood. What really hit home was the shrimp- five jumbo, succulent shrimp paired with a chutney sauce and strawberries. It was one of the costlier items on the menu and worth every scent. The sandwich was also fabulous, I dressed it up with some sauce but the patty was so well prepared it could stand alone in flavor.
To top off a wonderful meal, our bartender Chris was lovely! Plus- Wednesday after 9 they offer $2.75 drafts and bottles (Magic Hat Electric Feel paired nice with the seafood, kudos to Chris )!
For a typical bar with your run of the mill atmosphere the dining experience and food was fantastic.
