"We arrived on time for our reservation and were seated immediately in a mostly empty dining room. In spite of the lack of a crowd the acoustics were poor, making it difficult to hear one another. It took a little over 15 minutes before a server came to our table (we had to ask) but once she arrived she was charming and efficient. The food was great. Stuffed clams were piping hot, a little smoky from the bacon, a little sweet from the onions and a little spicy just enough to give them a zing without overpowering the clams. My husband’s swordfish dinner was both gorgeous and delicious, served in a pool of cauliflower puree topped with tender little gnocchi and a sprinkle of crushed, toasted almonds. I’d never have thought those mild ingredients could blend into anything so tasty and creative. My lobster pasta was a rich, creamy delight. Fresh mushrooms, shallots, corn, bacon and cherry tomatoes made it chowder like. The pasta was cooked to a perfect al dente and there was a generous amount of lobster in the dish. Chocolate lava cake with vanilla ice cream must have been delicious, but I can’t be sure because I only got a spoonful of ice cream before the plate was emptied."
