| - The hubby and I took a chance on getting in on a Friday during Queens Feast without a reservation. We had a 30 minute wait which wasn't bad all things considered. We were seated at a community table, which was interesting. Our server, Marley was terrific; very well versed on the menu offerings. Hubby started with a dozen house oysters, which he said were really fresh. I had a cup of the new england clam chowder. Delicious, velvety chock full of clams. I had to stop myself from eating it all because it was so filling. next up we had the crab cakes. Can I just say, no filler! The aioli was has just the right amount of tang to finish these puppies. Hubby has the gumbo, which he found lacking in seafood, but he enjoyed it none the less. We had a side of gratin potatoes and grilled asparagus. The asparagus was meh, could have use a little char on it. The potatoes were great. I also had the lobster roll, which I found a little disappointing. The sandwich had no dressing or sauce at all. I was expecting a lobster salad sort of deal, but it was just, well, lobster. Overall, our meal was enjoyable, the service terrific. We will definitely return, if only for the oysters and crab cakes.
