Gift Tips

  • Try the salmon-wasabi dish if you want a flavorful main with an Asian twist—ask for it with the seasonal roasted vegetables when available.
  • Order the crab cakes as a shareable entrée; they’re noted for being mostly crab with minimal filler and pair well with a chilled white wine.
  • Start with the Maple Brie or the puffed crab pastry as an appetizer for a mix of savory and slightly sweet flavors.
  • If dining outdoors, bring a blanket on cooler evenings—patio seating is dog-friendly but can get chilly without heaters.
  • If you are visiting for lunch, look for lighter choices such as soups, salads, wraps, and open-faced sandwiches.
  • Save room for dessert, especially options like coconut cake, lemon mousse cake, or bread pudding.
  • Take a look at the wine list to find a pairing that fits a dinner with salads, seafood, or steak.
  • If you enjoy lighter plates, the beet salad, goat cheese salad, and heart of palms salad are all strong picks.
