in the last weekSat in patio over looking the ocean and had a delicious lunch with my beautiful fiance. Service from server was attentive with a friendly disposition. I didn't catch her name but she deserves commending. Great spot for a drink, chowder, sandwich and some oysters. Clam chowder was, my goodness, perfect! Savory, creamy, delicious. I want more!
