Place is pretty good, but not exceptional by any means. This was my second time dining here. Reserved a table for 5:30 which wasn’t ready until 6. We were offered to be seated inside but we requested outside and decided against changing anything. They tried to move the table in front of us along as they had warned them of the time they had when they were seated but they weren’t able to move them along. We would’ve preferred if they were asked to be moved inside since there was a table available and we had reserved the one they overstayed their welcome at, but I’m no restauranteur and don’t know if that could be done.

Menu is extensive, which is usually not a good thing. Means the staff is alright at everything rather than solid with the items they stick to. Plus it takes longer to decide as a patron. Once seated and decided on our orders, we got all our orders in, drinks, everything. Service was pretty good, but maybe a little behind due to the cramped setup they have inside which means there’s a bottleneck between the bar, kitchen, and service doors leading outside. Had to try to walk through myself at one point to use the restroom and had to wait for a parade of staff and patrons to pass through first going each way. The bathroom was also flooded due to some problems with the urinal.

Food started coming, and one of my party realized that there was bacon in the clam chowder, which isn’t standard in the dish (although it is a common addition), nor was it listed on the menu, and which this member of our party doesn’t consume. We managed by sharing some of each of our meals with the individual. The food was pretty good otherwise. I had the crusted day cod, which had a little too much cream and a thin crust that I could see but not taste nor feel the texture of due to the cream which was a little underwhelming, but the cod and crab themselves tasted good.

However, the lack of clarity on the clam chowder’s bacon is concerning, especially considering that many religions do not allow for the consumption of pork. I don’t think most sane individuals would pursue a legal case for such an issue (although they could), but it does show a lack of care by the establishment for certain patrons. I strongly urge management to replace their printed menus and adjust their online menus to reflect the pork in the chowder for the benefit of future patrons.

Overall was fine. Not sure if my second time was good enough to warrant a third, but I can say it was good enough for a second experience, so take that as you will.
