Hadn’t been here in quite a while, and I’m happy to report that it was great! Food was absolutely delicious—especially the crab cakes—and service was excellent. We’ll be going back more often!

The crab omelet was amazing. I really liked the hash brown and zucchini bread. My Father enjoyed his lobster bisque and the eggs benedict looked delicious, We want to come back for dinner. It was quiet during brunch which my parents liked as they are hard of hearing.

The perfect place to have dinner on Christmas Eve. We had the Maine Lobster Bisque, the Arugula Salad, and the Duck with Scallops. For us the Black Lab is for special occasions.
