The drinks that we tried were all quite tasty. The calamari was good. The fried chicken Caesar wrap was great. It didn't have croutons so beware if you're looking for that, but it had great flavor. I was a little hesitant to have the peanut butter thing cheesecake as I don't know why you'd stray from the peanut butter thing. That being said, it was delicious and I would definitely get it again.

It opened at 11:30 so we arrived close to that time, with no reservation. The decor was beautiful and with a fresh nautical feel. We were greeted warmly when we walked in the door and seated right away by the window with a view of the harbor and boats. Our waitress came over right away and gave us our menus - three of them. One was a regular menu, one was lunch specials, and I think the other one was for Chef's selections. I ordered the Chicken Carbonara on the lunch menu and it was amazing! The portion was just enough and was very flavorful and fresh. My friends had chicken Caesar salad and a mixed bowl (not sure about this one). I didn't take pics of our food because we all just dove right in, but I DID take a picture of our dessert. OMG it was bread pudding with fresh whipped cream and ice cream - soooo good!! The place filled up pretty quickly by the time we left it was full. The prices were reasonable and the wine was just fine! I wish I could remember the waitresses name to give her a shout out because she was a doll! Can't wait to visit again!

As a go to, you can't go wrong with the Reuben. I had to look under the buttery marble rye to convince myself that there wasn't bacon on it, but dang it's the so smoky and crisp pastrami that will fool you too. Honestly, tonight I ventured off the Reuben for the first time, BUT word was, from the local next to me munching on the Cubano that he calls da' bomb, he told me the cheesesteak is right in line with the rest of the offerings. Verdict: I don't know if the chef is a beer drinker but he plates a beer drinkers meal. First bite of the cheesesteak was a little bready, and I started thinking I should have stuck with the staples. Second bite changed everything. I'm not going into the gooey, orgasmic details, it was just phenomenal. The star of the show was the bread. The same bread that caused me hesitation on the first bite. Incredible. I'm coming back for every sandwich on the menu, and you should too!

The whole place has that genuine hometown vibe that's getting harder to find, plus consistently great live music (Sundays especially). It's on the smaller side, but they somehow pack the place without sacrificing service, which says a lot. When the weather warms up, they open up a large alley next to the pub for live music--and that's where this place really shines. On a crisp fall day? Forget about it... that's exactly where I want to be. Good food, good people, good music--what more do you need? Enjoy the good times ahead.

I'm newly back to the area. I ordered a stuffed quahog and the braised short rib and it was AMAZING. I went back again to watch the Superbowl and had the honey hot pepperoni pizza which was SO good. I was excited to return today. Again I ordered the stuffed quahog and the braised short rib. I didn't even look at a menu. I was so excited to enjoy this meal again. However, this time the stuffed quahog was just so-so. Very dry. Fine. It was the short rib I was really looking forward to. However, the dish I received was a pale comparison to the dish I received just 10 days ago. The photos tell the story.

The pancakes are big, loaded with butter and delicious, 2 for one person is a lot! The omelette comes with breakfast potatoes, toast and coffee. The hot chocolate is not free refills.

We had never been there before so thought we should try the clam cakes - fried and breaded, didn't really taste any clams. The only thing "seafood" about it was the tarter sauce. My wife and I had a seafood casserole and a fish and chip, which were very tasty but we both liked the picked beets the best - not such a great commentary for a seafood restaurant if we enjoyed the beets best of all. To us it was just average fare; nothing spectacular to write home about. The fish and chips had a strange doughy batter. We had a waiter who was pretty slow but the waitresses were running their butts off so kudos to them for a wonderful job. Thanks
