They only loose one star on the food because they didn’t have any dessert. The rest was a perfect 5 stars: excellent food, great location, amazing view, and the most friendly staff we’ve seen in a long time! Keep it up and just add some desserts

This was a surprise spot as we took a turn and there it was! A happy wrong turn! You order and pay at the hostess station and your food is brought to you. You can always open another tab and order more from your table, but, paying in advance makes it so nice as you can leave as soon as you want without having to flag down your server!

Nice restaurant nestled away from the major crowds. Beautiful view outside and nice hosts. We ordered ceviche and mussels. The flat bread that came with the ceviche itself was very good and overall both were good. The quantity of the mussels were really good for the price. Would definitely recommend.

Clam chowder was ground up along with clam and potato so fine you could drink it. Not worth it $$$$ Crab sandwich was mediocre definitely not worth the money.

We ate here on a Monday night, not too crowded. We had the wedge Caesar, the clam chowder, and we did the “wine surfing” (wine sampler). Everything was delicious! The Caesar dressing was creamy and had such good flavor. The clam chowder was thick and had nice big chunks of potatoes and clams. So good!! We felt the prices were very reasonable and the portions were big. The salad and soup were enough as a main meal. We will definitely be back!

This is a charming spot by the bay where you can unwind and savor a delightful lunch. The locals here are incredibly amiable, making the experience even more enjoyable. While the prices are a bit steep, that seems to be the norm for eateries along the coast. My partner and I indulged in a delicious crab sandwich and some chowder, which were both outstanding. In my opinion, it was definitely worth it.

Holy hell! Beautiful meal and setting. COVID compliant. Knowledgeable staff. Dishes are thoughtfully curated to create complex and complimentary taste with clean flavors. Perfectly cooked salmon. Wood fired mushrooms were a delight. Sorry the mushroom/cheese dish picture is mangled, I was too excited.

This place is a gem. It was exactly what we needed after an afternoon at Portuguese Beach. Delicious clam chowder and vino for parents, plain plain pizza to make kiddos happy (they also have a wide variety of not plain pizza for more developed palates), outdoor seating so our furry four-legged friend could join us, and servers who were both pleasant and thoughtful. I highly recommend! The only thing that might have improved our dinner would have been a heat lamp or fire.
