    Food was much better than I expected. Really enjoyed it. Fried oyster sandwich and clam chowder were among the best Ive ever had. Great fries too! Really great service made it a very nice experience. And fantastic history in that restaurant. Was really cool to walk around and look at everything including the JFK booth. One of the guys working at the iyater bar pulled out a lobster from the tank to let my 3 year old touch it. Big points for that. Will definitely go back.
