What to Order
Oysters
Fresh oysters, often from New Brunswick, served with various sauces or prepared Rockefeller style with white wine, parmesan, cream, and bacon.
"We ordered 2 Oyster dishes. One was the regular with sauces and the other one was the Rockefeller with white wine, parmasean cheese, cream and bacon. That Rockefeller oysters are very very good! I reccomend them over the other ones."

"The chowder was a party in my mouth but cold and expensive!"

Lobster Risotto
A creamy and tender risotto featuring generous portions of lobster, though the overall serving size of risotto can be small.
