Fantastic food and experience. My first lobster roll was filled with sweet lobster chunks and the salad dressing on the arugula salad that was served with it was simple but outstanding flavor. There’s a wait to get in but after you eat here you’ll understand why!

We got the 3 things I think were absolutely essential to try here: oysters, lobster roll, and johnnycakes.

Let me start this off by saying this is a food review and not an indictment on the service or atmosphere. The wait was an hour, and I totally understood that. Place was small and very intimate and was very modern inside. The hostess and waitress were awesome and gave us recommendations. Now onto the food, I’m sure it was good and made well. But all the food had no flavor and was just bland. From the fish and chips to lobster roll. In my opinion most definitely not worth the hour wait. Expected more! Head over to Quincy market if you want something with flavor and better.

Quintessential oyster place in Boston, our second visit here and still amazing. The one downside is the wait time, expect to wait 1-2 hours if you don’t show up early. Best option is to be at the restaurant by 10 AM (they open at 11). The oysters are extremely fresh, very flavourful and amazing. This is a must try for seafood lovers in Boston. Will definitely come again!

Just wow. It really lives up to the hype. I got the lobster roll there and I nearly shed a tear it was so good. I 10/10 recommend this place. I visited Boston on a business trip and I spoke with locals who said this was the place to go. You have to wait in line as the place is small, but it is so worth the wait. The oysters, warm butter lobster roll, and salad were delicious. I also think my server was very kind.

Tiny bar, no reservations, but worth the wait. Every dish I’ve had here has been exceptional: the oysters with house mignonette, the fried Ipswich clams (so juicy!), the johnnycake with creme fraiche and caviar, the crispy salted french fries, and of course, the main reason people come here, the lobster roll. Theirs is hot and buttered, and with caviar, the best one in the whole city. Love it. Friendly, fast moving staff and plates as well.

Easily and I mean easily the best seafood in Boston. The scallop crudo was out of this world, and the soft shell crabs that had been pan fried were next level. Lobster roll was excellent, but the flavors of dishes that allowed for complex flavors was absolutely extraordinary. They open at 11am but there will be a line around the block so get there at 10:30am. Only 37 seats total, so wait early and then you won’t wait longer hungry. Absolute must.

The wait is worth it! A party of 2, waited about 45 minutes to be seated. Small but very vibrant restaurant with nice waitstaff and the food is amazing! The oysters (MA, WA) are the best I’ve ever had, Lobster roll and cocktails are delicious.
