Quint restaurant in a historic home with quality food and live music. Recommend bringing a sweater in cooler months as it is a historic home and a bit on the chilly side. Well worth the trip.

We had a wonderful pre-Valentines Day dinner! The food, atmosphere, and evening were all well worth the visit. The seafood chowder special was fantastic and the bechamel in the lasagna really brought the dish together. We don’t tend to drink alcohol, so the expansive and thoughtfully curated non-alcoholic drink menu was really appreciated. We had a bottle of sparkling apple cider with our special meal, haha. All in all, a really special evening at a great local restaurant. We look forward to coming back again soon.

My husband and I went here for date night. I wish I knew the nice woman’s name, she made the experience so nice. Outstanding service, which can be hard to find. Very sweet with a great atmosphere. Best of all, the food was delicious. Crab cakes, lobster salad, and filet were delicious. And you have to try the rolls! Thank you for a wonderful evening! We are lucky to have this restaurant!

Had a lovely evening to eat on the patio! Food was, as always, excellent. I only gave it 4 stars because my lobster scampi didn't have much lobster in it, but otherwise it was delicious. Service was perfect: enough attention, but not intrusive. Courses were perfectly spaced.

Chorizo Dumplings and Oysters on the half shell were excellent. Dessert of Strawberry Rhubarb Tart with homemade Vanilla ice cream was delicious.

Delicious food. Real anchovies on my Caesar salad. Beautiful patio. Gracious service. Creative gourmet menu with lots of variety. Today the halibut and oyster specials were delish.
