    Fantastic dining experience all around! Make reservations to ensure your seating, as this restaurant is very popular! We were seated on the deck, started with a plate of raw oysters and cocktails - all of which were fabulous. Our mains included the evening sirloin steak special which my husband devoured; and the house scallops over pea puree for me, which were absolutely terrific! We savored every bite. We had to save room for dessert and another cocktail. My husband went easy with an affogato. I indulged with the Basque cheesecake and olive oil and thyme ice cream. Please don't pass on that! It was outstanding! Our server James was engaging and friendly, offering his advice on dish selections and cocktails. One of our best meals in Lunenburg - but then all of the meals at their sister locations were incredible as well!
