It was \"run down\" back then, but Ed, his wait staff, and perch dinners were great! Having said this, the new owners came in, completely renovated the interior and exterior spaces to give it both \"curb appeal\" and upgraded, modern amenities inside to attract the younger crowd (e.g. millennial, gen x'ers) while being careful not to offend the \"older\" crowd. The menu was also changed up with some fresh offerings but thoughtfully keeping most of the established food fare especially the Lenten fish fry. I believe the new owners brought in new cooks as well. Most times, we've been more than satisfied, especially the Fall special \"Clam Bake\" which was ample and delicious. So now, the not so good news...went last Friday around 9:00pm with the wife and two of my grandchildren in tow. We ordered a flatbread cheese pizza, a pierogi dinner and side of fries, a pretzel/beer cheese app, and a regular sized breaded perch dinner. This is the first time I can say we were disappointed. The perch was cold, as though it was sitting 20 minutes before being plated and served. The flatbread pizza was completely burnt \"black\" on the bottom which made it unappetizing to my 9 year old grandson. The pierogi dinner was ok though. Also, they were out of \"New England\" Clam chowder which was understandable but disappointing for my wife. I normally would have brought this to the attention of the waitress, but I felt it was getting late (10ish), and everyone just wanted to eat because they were hungry, including me. So, everyone makes mistakes. I hope this isn't a red flag of a declining quality control."^^ . "3"^^ . "1"^^ .
