It was a $17 plate of bagged lettuce sprinkled with dried cranberries, a few cherry tomatoes, shredded cheese and a sweet bottled dressing on the side. Maybe some kind of nuts too- but nothing special. Certainly not a $17 salad. My husband got the seafood "platter". It was okay... again, nothing special. It had oysters, flounder and shrimp. All of it was heavily breaded and all tasted the same. My son's chicken tenders were dry and overcooked. They do give you bread while you are waiting for your food. The bread and butter/garlic spread was wonderful. Our server was prompt and attentive. He did seem like he was "in the weeds" and very busy. We sat at the bar while waiting on our table. The bartender man was the highlight of the entire experience. He was knowledgeable and friendly. He made my son a mocktail drink. It was the perfect treat for the hot summer evening.

It's not a dine in establishment, but still inviting. Typically they have pizza by the slice ready to go, but we arrived when they were prepping for fresh slices.

We walked about a block and sat on benches overlooking the water with our two dogs. For those who partake, they do offer alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages. Recommend giving this place a try.

Roomy and not crowded table arrangements. Server was very pleasant and helpful in making choices. We skipped appetizers as we know Italian food servings are typically abundant. We ordered the Eggplant Parmigiana and the night's seafood special which had shrimp, scallops and lobster with prosciutto filled pasta in a creamy tomato brandy sauce. The food was delicious. The eggplant thinly sliced was crispy on the outside and moist on the inside. Served over linguine and marinara sauce. My seafood special was amazing. The shrimp were huge, plentiful amount of lobster and the prosciutto filled pasta was very good. We thoroughly enjoyed our meal. I'm taking a point off only because for $14 the wine pour was very light. Also, the bread which was very fresh only had 3 pieces and the dipping oil was about 2 tablespoons at best.(I know we could have probably asked for more) Solid choice for Italian food.
