Why is it that almost every seafood restaurant on the water on Long Island has bad food? I ordered a tuna tartar app. that had absolutely no taste. Fried calamari was under cooked and bland. We asked for very well done fries and even sent them back and got back the same bland boring limp fries. The one thing that was really good was the pot of steamers. There were plenty for 4 of us to share and they were sweet with a very tasty broth.
Maybe we just chose the wrong things to order but all four of us were no pleased with our main dishes. Nice location. If a good band is playing, the bar is fun. You are better off just sticking to the music and drinks.
