Clam chowder was good, not the best I've ever had, but good. I had dinner at the oyster bar and that was entertaining - very good oyster selection. The fish tacos were ok, I would go with another entr\u00E9e next time. The restaurant has multiple levels and the entry stairway off of the street is very dark and a bit tricky to navigate so be careful. Nice place, good crowd but honestly it seemed a bit disheveled in some regards - they should just tidy up a bit (note to manager, wipe the dust off the vents over the oyster bar not good seeing very dusty vents over a food prep area).\n\nNot being negative, it was fine, but just a little effort it could be very good."^^ .
