We love the English fish and chips and Boston clam chowder. It is a very casual restaurant that is dog-friendly.

Wonderful variety, well prepared, with excellent service...

The bar tender recommended an excellent wine that we enjoyed very much

Very attentive staff, Sweet dessert menu, good drinks, the mermaid mai tai was delicious!

Fun atmosphere, great staff and fabulous menu. Gluten free options are outstanding.

Personally I would have liked a little spice rubbed onto the fish to complement all the other fund sides. Otherwise an interesting dish. Would ask that there was a little more time between appetizers and main course delivery. Some of us had not finished the apps before the mains arrival and fish needs to be eaten immediately.

I always have a great time! The food is terrific... the place is a little crowded on weekends, but worth the wait.

Always good, would highly recommend it dinner are better at the second location next door.

The food is always delicious. They have great gluten free options. The portions are ample and filling.

The Food & service have always been very good whenever I've dined at this restaurant.

Courteous

We spoke with the manager.

Our waiter was great and friendly -the food was very good.

Everything else was outstanding but the crab salad was served warm instead of chilled.

The bread wasn't good. It must have been microwaved to warm it up.

We had the Oysters and Bistro entrees - Brioche Lobster Melt and Lobster Tacos. The lobster melt was good, maybe a little too much mayo in the lobster.

My friend had the soup and she couldn't even eat it - too salty. Told them and they didn't even offer to get her anything else. I asked for my hamburger to be medium and it was very rare - when I told the waitress she acted like it was a big deal to fix it so I told her not to bother. To finally get our orders taken we had to interrupt two of them talking. Then it took a bit for one to finally come over. Read more Read less

The restaurant is very noisy and many diners had to share one long table down the middle--even if they came in alone or as a couple. Some of the food was excellent--the calimari appetizer was delicious. The clam chowder was awful--there is some spice or herb in it that made it inedible--& we've eaten many different clam chowders! My lobster sandwich was very good but my husband's crab sandwich was very dry and not very tasty. It took quite a while to be noticed and served but once we were, the service was very good.

Our server even brought some club soda and a clean towel when she noticed that I spilled a bit on my white shirt. Her actions were much appreciated. Our food was very tasty.

Food and service excellent. Dined outside with our dog. Heater was turned on for us and we were very comfortable.

There is a wide selection of food to chose from on the menu, and the location in Carmel is very nice.

Service was a bit slow for our table, others were helped in a faster more responsive way from what we observed.

Good food, great service.
