Meghan Sue: I love this place. Great lobster rolls (and I've had real maine lobster rolls). Great people watching via picture window :)
Alaa Shaker: Best lobster roll I've EVER had! Get the Taste of Maine (1/2 lobster, crab and shrimp rolls), or go for Noah's Ark (double that) and fill yourself up!
NikNak Bar: Love the lobster rolls. Lunch time is busy, seating is limited so get there early. Maybe carry out and find a nice spot to have a picnic lunch.

FiOS 50: Oysters should obviously be the first thing on your to-try list - especially chef Jamie Leeds own varietal of oyster, the Hayden's Reef. Try the lobster rolls, po' boys, and crab cakes too..
Antonio Andreozzi: I would strongly recommend The oysters from british Columbia and Virginia, in addition to the delicious small grilled octopus, fried oysters and the lobster roll!
Scott Wallis: My favorites are the raw oysters from the west coast, the lobster roll with no unnecessary fillers, the decadent Mac & Cheesy, the perfectly cooked scallops and the amazingly friendly staff.

Rita Lassiter: Best dessert is the butter cake. HANDS DOWN! The buttery, sweet, crunchy outer layer combined with the soft cake and butter pecan ice cream? Simply heaven...
Char: Great upstairs bar, VERY awesome waitstaff and bartenders!! Will return!
