They make the best scallop chowder. Be sure to get a bag of doughnuts with it. The doughnuts are lobster, shrimp & crab fritters. We have been going there for many years and have never been disappointed.

Elegant fine cuisine get there around late lunch then sit on the grass afterwards check out the beautiful view with a cocktail.

You can go casual and sit outside on their patio and utilize their limited menu which is small but includes their amazing, creamy white chowder, oysters etc. or go inside for a more upscale, but still casual experience and choose from their full menu-which includes anything from a basic (but still tasty) burger to lobster. You can even grab chowder by the quart at their Black Pearl annex which is located perpindicular to the restaurant and next to the patio.
