Best fresh, local seafood you could ask for. If you're into oysters/anything raw out of the ocean this is definitely a stop for you! We suggest getting there at least 20-30 minutes ahead of time since there is almost always a wait. Menu Suggestion: brown butter lobster roll

Everything is $5, cash only. Live music some nights This place is a hidden gem. Literally. I can't tell you exactly where it is (that's cheating) and it has no sign but I will tell you the door is built/hidden in a wall in a stairway. Watch where people are coming and going from long enough and you'll find it.
