    My pal Celebrating his 90th after enjoying his Scallop casserole(which , sadly, is no longer available.
    Deb T.

    My Scallop Casserole was SO delicious that I never stopped eating to take any pictures‼. Now, THAT's saying something! Service was outstanding and -well the food was too good to notice ANYTHING else. Unfortunately I've been told that it has been taken off the menu- relayed to me by a credible source who, like me, refuses to patronize a place that has removed his favorite dish of ALL time, anywhere. Too bad for all involved... I'm curious about what it might take to bring it back ?!? Hmmmm vs Mmmm

    We came by for wings and one beer. Service was pleasant and fast. I liked that the waitress kept checking in with us. Wings were ok flavor wise. The beer was cold enough and they had a great selection. There is plenty of parking space.

    Wow. The Spot is new and greatly improved. BEST Reuben sandwich- the corned beef is tender and freshly made (you can taste the marinade slightly). The bread is thick and crunchy but not greasy. The onion rings are fresh and delicious as was the burger - made with fresh meat. Thank goodness we have a place to come back to.

    Been here a half dozen times now. Super perfect neighborhood bar. Great tap selection. Food is consistently on-point. On a particular gloomy day, the crock of chili was "spot" on.

    The overall environment here is warm and welcoming. Came here as a large group and loved it! Service was fast despite our large group, great beers on draft and the food was great! A little overcooked in the burger and the grilled cheese but still delicious. Can't wait to come here again!

    Pets welcome!

    Nice little spot, great out door seating and service. The food was good. Vegetarian options are available. Next time I'll bring my dog.

    Eh. The wings were mediocre. Decent spice, but they weren't cooked well enough. The TV situation was good to watch a game.

    The Shipwright's Daughter - crispy fried oysters

    I am absolutely obsessed with everything here. I made reservations for 5:45 pm on a Monday night…read more We actually came a little before 5:15 pm, because I was absolutely starving, and they were so kind/accommodating. They seated us right away! I love the vibes of the place, it's beautiful and inviting, but not pretentious. Our waitress was the best. She knew it was our anniversary and gave us a little bubbly to toast to. We also made it for happy hour (5 pm - 6 pm on weekdays, and 5 pm - 6 pm on weekends only at the bar)! All the small plates on the left side of the menu were half off! We immediately ordered drinks (the $10 happy hour cocktail - a blackberry bourbon smash for my husband, and a mocktail for me). We then ordered the shishito peppers, 2 of the pickled beet deviled eggs, and the roasted oysters with chili oil. They came out super fast, and it was delicious. The shishitos had that great char flavor along with a great dipping sauce. You can never go wrong with deviled eggs. Then we decided to order the fried oysters and the bread with corn butter. The fried oysters were the star of the small plates. Cooked so well. Freshly fried, you bite into it and it was juicy and delicious on the inside. Just so good. The bread and butter? Ugh, my dream butter and bread. Just so delicious. The butter was slightly sweet from the corn and had flakes of sea salt on tip, making it the perfect sweet and salty combo. We also got the salad (local produce!), and our waitress knew we were sharing ao she had the kitchen put it on 2 plates. Such a great touch. The salad was fantastic. After eating lobster rolls for a day, this was a much needed salad. It was refreshing, bright, and light! For our main entrees, we got the seared local squid and the strip steak. It was INCREDIBLE. Everything had so much flavor. The squid was cooked well, wasnt chewy. Just delicious. The crispy rice was the BEST THING I HAVE EVER EATEN. I wish we could order bowls of it. My husband finished it, couldn't get enough of it. The steak was fantastic as well. The potato with the bearnise sauce was so dreamy. The little onions on the steak, all the little touches were so well done. We knew we had to get dessert. We got a scoop of the black raspberry ice cream, a scoop of corn and blueberry swirl ice cream, and the lavender honey panna cotta. Guys. You 100% must get dessert. The corn blueberry ice cream was unreal. I dont know how you get all that flavor into ice cream. They dont skimp on the honey on the panna cotta. And it went so well with the more mild panna cotta. The black raspberry was a little icy because they froze whole blackberries in it, but at least you know they were trying to make sure you got blackberries in there. With happy hour, the bill wasn't too bad. This was hands down our favorite meal of our week long road trip. I can't wait to come back. I would 100% make a detour to eat here. Parking is pretty difficult around here. I would probably just Uber if I was coming here on a weekend. I need to come here for breakfast at some point.

    I've been here multiple times for dinner and brunch and definitely had a good time…read more The deviled eggs are amazing! They also have a pavlova dessert that I highly recommend. The wine list is good. The coffee (bees knees I think) is outstanding. Parking is right behind. Ask for a window table to enjoy people watching. Service is server dependent someday good someday great. Cute ambiance and great food.

    By far our favorite sit down meal from our trip to CT! Our server was so sweet and accommodating…read more(very much appreciated her patience and understanding with our toddler) and the food was unbelievably fresh on all fronts. The steamers and raw oysters were so delicious - definitely recommend getting these to start. The freshness can't be beat! The views by the window were gorgeous and we ordered a bottle of sauvignon blanc with dinner and watched the sun go down - was pleasantly surprised the mark up on the bottle wasn't higher. My linguine and clams were so yummy - generous with the clams which I was happy to see. My husband enjoyed his steamed lobster - not cheap, but quality and they crack it for you for an extra $5. Skipped dessert because we were so full but their espresso was nice and strong. Would love to come back and sit outside next time!

The waitress took about 20 mins to get to our table right before happy hour ended, even though it was not busy at all. The oysters were big and tasted really good! The main dish came out in another 25 mins and it was good, but not as good as I last remembered. Overall the happy hour oysters are a great deal. The mains dishes were a little more overpriced for what you get. Staff and service was unfortunately very slow. Not disappointed with the experience, but expected a little bit more from this place.

    Headline: Believe the reviews. It was overpriced, mediocre food with defensive service…read more I should have heeded the warnings. Despite being attached to the Marriott, this restaurant currently feels completely disconnected from any standard of hospitality. The service was the primary issue. While our initial server was adequate, the older server who brought our food was unprofessional. She delivered the wrong meal a wilted Caesar salad and a "goopy" flounder instead of the salmon that had been ordered. She implied it was either our mistake or her colleague's fault. Worse, she took the incorrect dish back but left my short rib on the table. No one offered to keep my meal warm, and by the time my companion's food finally arrived, my dinner was cold. The food itself was "wannabe" high-end, but instead,overpriced Sysco-grade quality. There is potential in the ambiance, but the kitchen and staff are clearly just going through the motions. Save your money and walk to a restaurant with better reviews

    We were staying at the hotel next door and had breakfast at the Helmsman. We were thrilled with the…read morebreakfast menu. Besides the breakfast buffet, there are several wonderful breakfast items to select on the menu. I opted for the avocado toast. It was served on grilled sourdough and with thinly sliced radishes. It was perfection. I loved that it arrived with a side salad and dressing. The cucumbers and radishes really made the breakfast pop. Lovely presentation! We also ordered the smoked salmon on a bagel as another b breakfast entree. It was loaded with smoked salmon! If you have breakfast here and have never tried a grilled muffin, order it! We had never heard of a grilled blueberry muffin and had to try it! To say it is delicious is an understatement. The muffin is overflowing with blueberries! They cut it in half and put it onto the grill. The butter and sugars seem to crystallize into one of the best muffins I have ever tasted. Tim was our server was able to help us navigate our options and the items to try during our stay. He was friendly and so very helpful!!

Since it was a weekend, only breakfast options were available on the menu and some items are more expensive than they would be during the week. Inside is typical diner decor with clear plastic over the wood tables. The food was good, but everything else was disappointing. First is the noise. Not only is there lots of yelling between the staff, the music was incredibly loud and obnoxious. The staff generally were not very friendly. Our server was visibly short when taking our order and following up, but spent time chatting with regulars at the counter, so it wasn't due to being busy. My son was actually so stressed by her and the overall vibe in the restaurant that he rushed through his meal so we could leave quickly. In hindsight, there are a number of earlier yelp reviews that call out friendliness and get a harsh response from the owner/manager, so I fully expect one here. Point is, unless you're a regular, don't expect much warmth. Coming back to the food, everything our party ordered tasted great and there were mostly empty plates when we left. I really like seeded rye toast with my eggs, but they don't have it as an option. Prices were in the $10-15 range if you don't order something with meat. In summary, a loud diner with solid food and hurried vibe.
