“ Awesome restaurant. One of the best on the Cape. Really varied menu. Some fish, vegetarian, and one beef entree. Great drinks, wine list and local beer. Interesting desserts too. White bean hummus in olive oil for bread was another great item. ”

“ Best restaurant on the cape. Great food, fantastic service and easy to enjoy the time. Tuna bolognese 10/10 ”
“ You haven’t lived until you’ve tried the Tuna Bolognese. It’s the kind of dish that could honestly bring world leaders to the same table. If we ever send another spacecraft out to meet aliens, we should probably pack this recipe, right next to Beethoven’s Fifth. It’s that good. ”
“ Went for dinner one night and it was so good we came back again a couple of days later for dinner. All the good was amazing. Not a single bad dish on both visits. Lots of great specials each night. If you do go, please get the tuna bolognese. I think its maybe top 3 pasta dishes of my life. Its really that good. We ate it twice. Do not sleep on the desserts. Amazing. This place will be on my list to visit again and again on future trips to the cape. T ”
