Labor day evening and the line was out the door. 12 minutes later we ordered at the counter. 5 minutes later we had our order. Good chowder, and while people debate who has the best clam cakes, I think Aunt Carrie's has the best.
Overall I would say the food was good but too much breading on the fried stuff. Otherwise it was good!
Landmark seafood dine in / take out seafood restaurant. Non memorable food but located right next to Pt. Judith Lighthouse. Clamcakes are immense with very few clams. Pretty typical for the area.
