Knick B. • January 19, 2018If you’re unfamiliar with the place, check out all floors! Something to see on every one. Also, great place to just set up camp and study. Don’t forget about the cafe in the back, great americanos.

Alicia K. • November 22, 2012Very pretty and intimate setting. Love the egg salad sandwich and banana bread. This might sound weird, but eat it with lemon curd and clotted cream. Nice place for afternoon tea in overall.

Myra R. • April 26, 2010Crabmeat avocado salad, lobster salad, oysters & shrimp! Great place for some appetizers, bubbly & people watching :-)

Mindi • June 23, 2010The crab cakes are great! Actual real lumps of crab. Not much filler. The filet is incredibly tender. And the chargrilled shrimp is well seasoned. Be sure to get a reservation, even on weeknights!
