    It was a very nice dining experience. We enjoyed most of the dishes, but the crab cakes were not mostly lump crab meat, and the oysters, though small, were very good.

    Only 2 other tables had people yet it took our server 15 mins to come to the table to ask if we wanted to order a drink as he was talking with the other waiters in a back corner and ignoring patrons. First time ever that I can say the lobster roll was flavorless, (hard to make lobster flavorless) the crab cakes were mostly stuffing as we couldn’t taste any crab, and the tuna tartar was mostly avocado with little tuna. The only good thing were the oysters but at $4 apiece they better be good. I love shellfish and this was a huge disappointment.
