    Great place in Old Town, right along the river in a large section of the Torpedo Factory. Excellent food….we had the lobster roll (hot with lots of melted butter) and fish-and-chips, and both were delicious. Servers were delightful….had Maddie one night and Jennie another. They were friendly and fun, and provided knowledgeable guidance on the various menu choices. Highly recommend!!

    Always a fan and love love love Virtue! I had made a reservation and after sitting at the table for 45 minutes it was suggested we were on a potential time crunch as folks would be coming and then there was a wait list. We weren’t rushed per se it was just a suggestion…then after the surge we were left to hang - that’s why I made a reservation a day in advance and at least expect good to hang out for 2 hours without issue :)

    My date and I had the same meal(prime rib,mashed potatoes). I had the chop salad which was good and my date loved the cream of crab soup. The calamari was delicious and our drinks(lemon drop)was perfect. The ambiance is always nice, especially if you sit by the window. Our waitress was very attentive and everyone we came in contact with was so pleasant. Customer service all around thumbs up! Thank you!
