Absolutely loved the overall experience! My wife grew up on the coastal southern Maine, and heard about the optimist's "authentic" Maine lobster rolls. She said that if she closed her eyes, she was at the beach in Maine eating a fresh lobster roll and pier fries! Also, they have beignet style hush puppies that will make you a hushed puppy while savoring this n'oleans twist on a classic southern side dish. The food was excellent, the drinks were superb, the wait staff was awesome! This was one of the best dining experiences we've ever had, and can not wait to come back again!
