Appertizer: Seafood Gumbo for $12. It was bad and would not recommend it. Too much black pepper and the soup was bitter. It burnt the back of my throat after each spoon. Because it was so bitter, you can't taste anything in the soup. It came with parley-butter bread and the bread was crunchy and warm when it came out. The dish is big enough for 2 people.
Main entrees: Lobster Roll and "Duck Fat Poached" Swordfish
Lobster roll was delicious but it was too buttery to me. Chips were seasoned but not really good. Seasoned with cummin and paprika.
Swordfish dish was flavorful, the fish was soft enough that the knife cut through the meat without any force. The fish came with 2 slices of mushroom, 1 slice of duck meat, and a char coal pearl onion. This dish is better than the lobdter roll. Price is $34-$35 each.
