Lobster Roll
A highly praised roll featuring large, fresh chunks of lobster, often served warm with butter.
"I got the lobster roll with the warm butter, which was elite and then also got a bunch of oysters - which were served fresh and delicious."

Virgin Caesar
A well-spiced non-alcoholic Caesar, complete with a flavorful salty rim and a perfectly cooked prawn.
"I also have to give their virgin Caesar a shoutout. It’s very well spiced; even the salty rim on the glass had depth. The bonus? It came with a succulent prawn cooked perfectly for the context."
Alli Bean
Crab Dip
A highly recommended dip, perfect for sharing, though gluten-free crackers are not provided.
"And I highly recommend the crab dip as well! 😋"
