Main takeaways are great food, nice wait staff, and huge portion sizes!

I came here for the first time with a few friends, and all of us were surprised by how good the place turned out to be. It's in an awkward location that doesn't see much traffic, which made it weird to see so many people there and as well as the pretty high prices of the food. The restaurant isn't quite hole-in-the-wall sized, with a decent number of seats inside and quite a few outside, but it did feel pretty cramped inside and it was clear that it could never handle a large crowd of people very easily.

The menu is the traditional casual dining food menu: burgers, sandwiches, some pasta dishes; pretty standard dinner dishes such as grilled salmon, lobster Mac and cheese, and chicken fingers; and the standard soups salads and sides. They have a surprisingly diverse appetizer menu though, and a sampler platter that looked pretty good.

I got the chicken tender dinner, what at the time of this review was just under $16. I thought that was just a little pricy for chicken tenders and two sides, but there were four HUGE cutlets of them so the portion size made up for the cost easily. The same price/portion relationship was true for my friends' meals. And they were GOOD. Obviously freshly cooked, very flavorful, and had an amazing flakey batter. I also got fries, a Caesar salad, and a bowl of clam chowder along with a fried calamari appetizer, all of which were also very good. The clam chowder was controversial at our table because it was a little sweet and had bacon in it, but I personally thought it was very good, if pricy at $7.

The waitress we had was very nice, as was the manager (?) who took back my friends bowl of chowder after he figured out it wasn't his taste.

Would highly recommend it!
