WALKABLE I like this place for the caesar salad and lobster bisque (yum). I hear the grilled salmon is really good too. Nice view of Motif #1.

WALKABLE In-the-rough dining. Steamed lobster & hot butter, freshly-shucked oysters, really great "chowda" and Kenny's friendly face. Walk across for fresh scallops to cook with pasta for dinner.
