General Notes

Waterfront seafood restaurant; like The Galley, the views are nice but the food is pedestrian. For some reason it's really popular on recommendation sites, but it's not really worth a visit. I'd rather just get a crab sandwich + oysters from somewhere nearby.


Dishes Tasted

  • ★☆☆☆ Captain's Combo Platter & Chips -- substituted onion rings for fries. shrimp, scallops, pacific cod, calamari, clam strips. Okay, but some components were pretty bad -- the shrimp was way overbattered, the cod was overcooked, the clam strips were purely batter.
  • ☆☆☆☆ Shrimp Scampi Pasta -- sauteed in garlic, lemon, white wine, and butter. The shrimp is overcooked, the pasta is ok, the broth is way too sour.
  • ★★★☆ Oysters -- These oysters were pretty delicious, quite large too.
