Top menu choices: Steak Frittes, Salmon & gnocchi, the burger (hands down the best burger I've ever had) & the lobster mac & cheese. Also cran-apple crisp and berries & dark choc are awesome desserts.

Super romantic. Grab a table on the 2nd floor by the windows, get a bottle of wine and some delicious seafood and you'll love it. Don't forget to order the snowball dessert!
The outdoor bar is definitely the way to go. Great drinks/service & full menu. The only challenge is grabbing your spot.
Great food and service. One of the only family friendly places on the Thames strip. Wine selection is fabulous. So go, get some wine & oysters doe yourself, and garlic mashed potatoes for the kids.
