Lobster Ravioli

Nate Miro
Cod Dish
A perfectly cooked cod dish featuring a vegetable succotash and a chorizo cream sauce, often with crispy potatoes.
"And, the cod was one of the best dishes I've ever had at a restaurant. A perfect portion. The vegetable succotash was so, so good with the chorizo cream sauce. Such a well thought out dish. I would go back just for that and the little crispy potatoes on top."
Noëlle Lavoie
Burger
A well-regarded burger, often cited as a satisfying and tasty option.
"Great burgers and good beers, I recommend the stout."
Giacomo Dalla Maria
Bloody Caesar
A standout cocktail, described as muddy and spicy, a must-try for Caesar enthusiasts.

David Wild
Oysters
