    We had a nice meal again. My wife had the halibut entree and I had a Nantucket scallop scampi special-both delicious. Our server, Matty, was delightful. We shared crab cake appetizer and I tried the Azorean Old Fashion cocktail which was very good but the maple syrup doesn’t mix well and leaves pure syrup at the bottom of the drink-too thick and sweet. My wife enjoyed a glass of cab wine. We were too full to consider dessert. Very busy place, as always, bustling with activity

    The downstairs experience is like a total Boston speakeasy vibe!! The lighting, booths, and just all around vibe was the perfect mix. The food was above expectations and the martini was *chefs kiss! Perfect for girls night, date night, or just a nice meal.
