And the service was really nice. It was a bit warm and one server told us to go ahead and open the window, but another came over and had me close it. So it was HOT. Maybe we were close to something hot? The pasta is made in house which I love. Food was creative. I do want to go back and try more. I had a chicken marsala, and it was classic.

Busy and bustling restaurant and local bar. Neat promo of passing out next weeks menu to keep the locals coming back. We started with haddock bites to share, as well as the tomato/mozzarella app. My group of New Yorker young adults raised on Bronx Italian/Arthur Ave influencers loved it. We each had different drinks utilizing the beer, wine and cocktail menus and had entrees including fish, all the taco varieties (my largely vegetarian daughter enjoyed her falafel tacos very much). My generous baked haddock serving will last me at least three meals and the cous cous salad and roasted zucchini were delicious and a nice modern spin on the classic Maine dish typically served without greens and often too heavy and rich potatoes. Our server was super busy, but obviously so was the kitchen, but it gave us time to revisit the interesting beverage lists again. Highly recommend as a stop in enjoying the River, North Conway or the upcoming Fair. I'd love to go back!

Rating: 4.3 Came to…read moretry this place as this restaurant looked promising when we were looking for food around Conway area after hiking some trails. It is located in Maine but was only around 15minutes away as Conway is at the border. The establishment is located in small town of Fryeburg and has plaza with some parking available. Place seemed pretty busy when we came but luckily we were able to be seated right-away. Inside is spacious and looks like a tavern with interesting mix of sports, arcade, hunting and seafood decorations. There is also live lobster in water tank. We ordered some raw bar with dozen oysters, dozen clams, and 1/2 lb shrimp. The oyster was good size and flavorful. Shrimp was large and great as well. Clam was a bit smaller and was not as good as the others. We also got some bang bang shrimp and 1lb boiled lobster. The bang bang shrimp was pretty good. Pretty much what i expected in terms of flavor. Boiled lobster was tasty. Nicely boiled and relatively easy to deshell. Overall the food was good. Service was good and the staff were attentive. Overall it's a solid place for seafood/Mexican fusions. They also do live music on Wednesday and do special offer for Mondays through Thursday i.e Oysters half off on Monday. Seems like a bar where locals come hang out and grab food and drinks. Price was definitely on higher side. With exception to Shrimps which were actually not too bad comparatively as they were 2.50 each or $25 for 1 lb.

Four adults out for a Sunday dinner. We thought we would need a reservation for a table at 5:15 but…read morethey're "first come first served." We didn't need to wait; handicap parking was available right at the ramp; easy in and out. Our booth was comfortable, and the appearance of the dining room is improved (cleaner, brighter, smooth floors and tables) from our last visit (over 2 years ago). Three orders of fried clams. One order of chicken parm on pasta. Servings were huge!! Fries were hot and fresh. Drinks didn't break the bank (1 wine and 1 Lone Pine beer, 2 sodas). When we go back we will order an app and 1 fried clam platter for the 3 seafood fans. Yes, chicken parm again!

This place was recommended by an older local couple that we love to visit every time we come to the area First of all, GENEROUS wine pours. I was happily shocked and buzzed after one glass of Malbec. Second, the servings of food are not small. We noticed other tables taking their leftovers in to-go containers. Baby, we're not in Kansas anymore (NYC). And lastly, the food is so fresh and delicious--the menu changes seasonally and is sourced from local farms, of course! Apps: Pan seared scallops over homemade crisp potato cakes, fresh corn puree, and a red pepper coulis--divine. Charred grilled octopus with heirloom tomatoes, cannellini beans, sweet red peppers, castelvetrano olives, and grilled lemon--an absolutely elevated cephalopod. Entrees: Roasted statler chicken with Yukon gold mashed potatoes, roasted brussel sprouts, and cipollini onions surrounded by a garlic white wine pan jus--very mild bird and excellent sauce And my favorite... Filet mignon seared perfectly rare, with mashed potatoes mixed with blue cheese crumbles, wilted greens, more caramelized cipollinis, all topped with a red wine demi glaze We were so well taken care of--the meal, the service, the view!!! We'll happily take another 6 hour drive just to return and do it again. Cheers!

The other bartender gave me the lunch menu. I asked her to get me the "nosh" menu she literally turned her back & ran off. No words, no comments, no confirmation.... Just a nasty dismissive attitude. She never came back & ignored us. Definitely NO customer service. Our other bartender made excuses for her then proceeded to bring up his wife & kids - NOBODY IS HITTING ON YOU, my friend & I are actually just friendly and wanted a decent lunch. I ordered chicken nibblets with Jamaican jerk sauce - ZERO spice, ZERO kick, why are you calling it that when there are ZERO Scott bonnets in it?!?! Just odd & totally misleading.

They have nice steak fries and you can also select waffle fries or sweet potato fries. The roast beef and steak and cheese sandwiches were also a hit with us. The salads looked huge from afar. We have always sat at the bar and were pleased to meet Tonya, she's a great bartender and even remembered our names which was surprising considering how many people she must meet. It's a great establishment with very friendly employees. A pleasant surprise indeed. We always go home with leftovers and the cocktails have been good. My friend drinks beer (they have quite a selection of both draft and bottles). To date, I have been drinking the raspberry Marguerita's which I have enjoyed.
