I ordered a cup of New England Clam Chowder and a Club Wrap. The soup was served hot and tasted great. There were plenty of clams and they were fresh and tender. The wrap had ham and turkey with just the right amount of ingredients. It was a very generous size portion. I ordered the potato salad as my side and it was very bland. Overall - The menu is varied, the service very good, generous portion size and a reasonable price. This is a restaurant well worth checking out.

We (my family) wanted to be indoors and out of the heat and sun. As we are staying next door, this was an easy choice. But the food is "meh". It's ok, I'm sure it makes some folks happy. But for me, it "tastes like Sysco" as my brother would say. Soulless. I think what is really getting me is the light smell of mopped floors. It's not overt but noticeable. So in short, good service, good options for indoor vs outdoor seating, ok food. Vibe is detached. No one's grandma or mom is cooking here.

It was pretty hot by 1pm so we opted yo stay indoors. My husband & I both had the same thing-LR w fries. They are not New England style meaning they're served cold not hot mixed w mayo not butter. I didn't know that and I don't care much for mayo so this makes it 4 not 5 starts for me. The roll was toasted and lightly buttered which for me made it the highlight of the sandwich. The rolls came w hearty cut fries w the option of reg or Old Bay salt. We went regular but I bet OB is tasty too. The fries were well cooked good quality and nice and hot. The meal was served with a lemon half that had been grilled. Never had seen this before. Not quite sure what the grilling does but it was what seemed like a nice touch. This was one of the more expensive good options in Harbor Yard but it is lobster after all. We enjoyed it but would have preferred it not mixed with mayo. Still a tasty meal. Service was average. The cashier who took our order wasn't as friendly as the others we encountered during our stay @ Sunseeker. Not rude but didn't see her crack a smile either.

They also have local honey, elderberry syrup, spices, sauces and olive oil direct from a farm in Italy. They have lots of superior cuts of meat from local farms. The animals are fed grass and other feed but not soy or corn. While I was browsing in the store, customers kept coming in to buy the milk. Apparently the cows are calving and can't be milked for two weeks so they have a temporary halt on selling milk. That is kinda sweet. Another lady was saying she could not get over the taste on the chicken breasts. I do remember the chicken comes from a farm near Dover, Florida. So I bought a dozen eggs which were large sized and had a brown shell. While more than organic store brand they were very fresh. I also bought a couple pieces of chicken and it did have a great taste. The Burlap and Barrel spices I love were the same prices I pay online without a shipping charge. This is a cute clean store. The owner told me the building is older and was previously a duplex and a pawn shop. I said I wondered why you had the bars on the windows "like someone is going to make off with your steaks." Haha. If you are what you eat, this store helps you invest in your health.

They have something for everyone, from immunity boosters to tropical fruit fusions, all made with high-quality, fresh ingredients right in front of you. No artificial junk here, just pure goodness. If you're looking for a spot that nourishes both body and soul, OMG Juice is it. Five stars all the way--I'll be back soon!

Now I'm really not to fond of the hotel restaurants with an experience I had in California however…read moreit was an all exclusive getaway so off the Aqua we go! Now we wanted to get the day started early for my birthday so we can go to all the excursions we had planned. It was a little confusing because it's no instructions and it wasn't anyone standing to assist you by the counter so we asked customers on how to be seated? They instructed us to choose a table and then someone will come out to help you. So we decided to sit by the pool area so we could view the beautiful water because we were on the beach side. The wait wasn't long after we all sat down. We started off with a cup of Starbucks coffee and fruits. We then ordered the American Breakfast which consisted of of 3 eggs , bacon , sausage, potatoes and toast. When I tell you the eggs were cooked to perfection. The bacon was cooked just right and not over crispy and it had like a maple taste. The sausage links were good but if it was my choice I would have had more bacon. The toast was sourdough bread which I love the taste of toasted sourdough with some cream cheese. The breakfast was really good. The price range was very decent for a hotel restaurant because they usually overcharge you but it was around $8-$19. They also had apple,grape and grapefruit juice. Will I try another hotel restaurant yes because I gave the experience a second chance which turned out to be very good.

This place is definitely a hole in the wall. It was very easy to miss. It's not in the best neighborhood but it's off a busy street so very easy to get to from downtown. Fyi- this place is cash only so I'm glad I bought cash. It was a bit hard to communicate with the lady there but she was very nice. The prices are super reasonable and my food came out pretty fast. Like others say, there's no ac so it was hot waiting for my food. The hot seasoning was very good. Not too salty or buttery. Maybe I'll try the garlic one next time. I'm glad I stopped by for lunch! Always happy to support a local small family business. The only reason why I didn't give 5 stars is because I didn't get whole crabs. Mine was all cut up and no shell.

We've had the same server the last two times and I'm kicking myself for not knowing her name. But she is awesome. She does a great job of getting all of the oysters out of the shells and record time and she is always chatting with us. In addition to the bucket of oysters, we have also tried the fried oysters and the seafood boil. Fried oysters but the seafood boil was delicious. If you want they also have other menu options if you're not craving oysters. Our last visit I found a big Pearl and one of my oysters which is a rarity. So I felt very lucky. Lucky that I didn't chip my tooth from chomping on it. LOL They do have two types of hot sauces and can give you butter if you'd like some. They also give you horseradish to go with your oysters. Sadly, they did not have any soy sauce. Don't judge. If you're craving oysters at a reasonable price, head down to Lee and Rick's oyster bar. And get there before the rush from the tourists who go to the parks nearby.

The service is amazing. The staff was attentive and helpful. I wish the food was better. I was in the mood for a salad. The first disappointment was that they only gave 3 choices. I am on a gluten free diet and didn't have a problem with that. I did have a problem with the fact that 2 out of 3 salads had cheese in it and is not for someone who adheres to a dairy free diet. Yes, I could have asked if the cheese could be left out. But these salads had multiple kinds of cheese. I never wanted to be that person who asks to leave out half of the ingredients because of dietary restrictions. I would have had to do that. Maybe the answer is the choice to have a custom salad for people like me. The second disappointment was that the salads had a price without any protein. When you added one of the proteins, the salad became very expensive. This was a huge turnoff. The last disappointment was the ice tea. Although there were 3 choices, two of them had ingredients to which I am allergic. The third choice had caffeine. There was really no choice other than to drink water. I chose the restaurant because it was midway between us and friends. I looked at ratings and the number of stars when I travel out of town. This was not really what I expected.
