Description

Beyond the expected bistro plates, the kitchen incorporates contemporary updates like lobster rolls and chicken club sandwiches. Dining here is split between a cozy interior and outdoor seating. While the cooking generally draws praise, visitors report mixed opinions on service attentiveness, meaning your meal might come with highly alert hosting or a noticeably slower, more hands-off pace.
