“Pesce freschissimo servito al momento, servizio veloce e amichevole, bella atmosfera, vini e acqua italiani. Ho ordinato un’insalata con gamberi e granchio, quando ho iniziato a mangiare ho visto che c’era della cipolla e la stavo togliendo, il proprietario accorgendosene è venuto da me per farmelo rifare. Un’attenzione fuori dal comune. ♥️“

“Butter roll perfection warm, soft, and buttery enough to make you question every other sandwich you’ve ever had. The lobster? Fresh, sweet. I did try adding extra lobster, but honestly, it didn’t change my life enough to justify the price save that cash for dessert or another roll.

The place is tiny, with just a few outdoor tables, but you’re surrounded by adorable little shops, so it’s basically like eating luxury seafood in a postcard. The vibe is super chill and informal the kind of place where you can wear flip flops, sip your drink, and watch people browse stuff they don’t need.

Easily one of the best lobster rolls I’ve ever had.“

My friend and I also received free samples of their newest menu items (baked salmon nigiri and baked shrimp nigiri, both with cheese sauce). They were delicious!!! The rolls are very reasonably priced and they give lots of food. I got the Jessica roll tonight and it was yummy. I always love coming here 💖“

“I came here at 5 on a Sat night. The ambiance was fantastic. I sat at the bar. I queried the bar tender if there was anything on top of the lobster bisque. He said know just lobster chunks. It came with I think parsley but was able to remove. There were no chunks of lobster meat. It tasted good but I prefer my bisque with lobster chunks. For an entree I had the shrimp fetticine Alfredo. The menu stated it was cheesy. It was not. Very little flavor. I paired it all with a glass of Chianti. Overall I was not impressed with the food but would give it another chance and try something else on the menu. Finding parking on the street was easy and their home made bread was great.“

The fish was huge and crispy and freshly prepared. The cabbage was paper thin and crisp and perfectly seasoned.
I couldn't believe how good my dinner tasted. I am a long time Rubios fan boy, but this trip was my best visit in quite a long time.“
