    White chowder was great! Fried calamari was horrible. My BF and I both left the restaurant with stomachaches.

    Clam chowder is always good. Been eating here since 1997 or something. Don't listen to bread guy below.

    Love the Clam Chowder Bread Bowl, when I'm full.... I feed the rest of the bread bowl to whatever animal or bird is around.... I know, not suppost too, they just look so hungry! :)

    Get the fish and chips! Some of the best you will find. Fluffy, not greasy!

    Chowder too creamy, rich. Fried seafood platter was good.

    The take out window is about $2-$3 cheaper than dining inside. The Calamari & Fries plate for $7.95 is fabulous! Generous portions.
