This place was great for booth seating which I loved and the food was great as well. I got the burrata salad which was so fresh and divine and had peaches in it which I thought was a really wonderful touch. Service was amazing and they were very attentive with our drinks and anything else that we needed. They kept refilling our tea pot with hot water which I really appreciate it. My friend and I who hadn’t seen each other in a long time had such a great time here and it was a wonderful place to reconnect. I highly recommend this place.

We went here for lunch and ordered chicken sandwich and lobster roll with a side of hush puppies. The sandwich was good and the lobster roll was delicious with the most generous amount of lobster. The oyster bar was really clean and organized. It has various selections of oysters and clams. We tried a few oysters and they tasted fresh and the presentation was excellent. Would go back here again. I recommend to try this place jn town.

Jay our server was awesome! Drinks here are super cute & different. Really enjoyed the may flowers & they had a fantastic variety of oysters! The only thing I will say is (who’s idea was it to put lentils under the salmon…) what the heck lol! Haha, either way had an amazing time & all the food was amazing.

We went for dinner and ordered four starter dishes + beers for two poeple and everything was perfect. The right amount of food, different types of seafood, each in a special preparation, all delicious. If I had to say something negative, I would say the tacos didn't stand out and were too dry. The restaurant is really nice inside, fancy but not too fancy. The waitress was awesome. We had an excellent night.

There was a bit of a wait when we got here, but we were able to snag a table right outside. This was my first lobster roll in Boston ever, and I've got to say, it did not disappoint. It's a bit pricy at around $36, but is totally worth it. The lobster roll was about 5 inches with a whole claw and some tail meat. I highly recommend squeezing a bit of lemon on your lobster, it really elevates the flavor. It also came with a very good portion of crispy shoestring fries. The clam chowder was also very tasty. Just the right amount of cream and not too salty, and the clam chowder crackers were fresh. It's always a pet peeve when the crackers are stale. As for cocktails, the rose sangria was nice, but tasted a bit watered down. The Battle of Starcourt had to be the best cocktail of the night. Their oysters were also reasonably priced. They were out of a few of them the night we were there, but they were well cleaned and fresh. Our server was also very friendly and brought us some salt water taffy at the end of our meal. Definitely looking forward to going again to try their hangar steak!

Superb food, and they take the time to assure you that your allergies are taken care of. I have a gluten allergy and the server made me aware again and again that was a consideration in meal prep. Good vibes, beautiful atmosphere.
