Cute little place... services was OK. Food on the other has was not very good. Lobster roll need more flavor and missing butter. Fish tacos... ugh, not good, frozen fish sticks. Clam chowder... seemed watered down, missing flavor and richness.Prices are 30% higher than others in the area. LR priced at $40 is a bit steep .There are much better places to eat.Sorry, I would not go back.

We had the lobster bisque, lobster roll, and fish tacos. Good experience.As we just returned from Ireland where we had chowders …. So, in contrast, the lobster bisque was thin.The lobster roll was quite good with full pieces of lobster filling the hot dog roll. Thoroughly enjoyed it.The meal king, however, was the fish tacos: the fish was moist and the pineapple-cilantro slaw with it was awesome.All good!

We had an early dinner and we had the restaurant to ourselves. I had the lobster roll and my husband had the oyster roll. They were both delicious and the fries, slaw, and pickles were delicious!

This felt like a hole in the wall with food flavor combinations that were not good. I was concerned when I glanced at the menu online, but there were no places to make reservations for dinner on graduation weekend. I think we would have been happier if we had just ordered pizza and stayed in.

Saw the sign for best lobster roll. Decided to try it. It was $38 for the smallest lobster roll I've ever had. Truly felt like a joke. The roll was decent taste wise. I also ordered the lobster bisque and clam chowder. Both soups felt like the poured a cup of water into it before serving it into small bowls. It was $15 for the bisque that had 2 small pieces of lobster in it and was essentially butter flavored water. My kids ordered the chicken which felt like they just warmed up frozen chicken in the oven and threw it on a plate. The fries were easily the best part of the meal.
