In the warmer months guests can grab a seat outdoors order a lobster roll with a draft beer and enjoy the blue skies matching the eatery’s bright blue awning. Or when the sun sets, they can relish a bowl of the ancient marnier– served with a crispy fish salad under the rainbow lights illuminating the restaurant.
