Place was closed down for a bit and reopened a short time ago. Always liked the clam boat specials on Thursday. Went there today with family and very disappointed with the amount of clams in the order. Looks like they cut down the portions. Even at a special. not worth going back for 5-6 clams with fries for $18.
