Food Scene

A no-frills stop for New England seafood since the '30s. Food can be a little greasy (even for fried food), but it has great views of the water from the rooftop deck so always worth stopping in for a drink on the deck and an appetizer or something from the upstairs raw bar.

The place seems like a possibly dive bar from the outside, but the food is exceptionally good. There is also a great staff with most having worked there for many years.
