Bait and Switch (literally) - do not get tricked here!!
These guys play tricks with the pricing and the service is very slow. Their menu showed meals for different seafood with chowder or salad, potato or rice etc. to accompany them. Maine Lobster in that section was marked 'Market Price'. I asked how much that was and they said $39.95, which was also displayed outside the restaurant. I tried to order two of these with the chowder, potato etc. They then suddenly informed me that the chowder, potato etc was $10 'extra', even though the menu said it was included....(go figure).
In other words the lobster as shown on the menu was really priced at $49.95, even though they told me it was $39.95. When I tried to rectify this with the manager he simply said I should leave. Since I had family there and did not want to be embarrassed we stayed and I ended up paying the $49.95 twice!
I guess somehow this is illegal but the manager seemed to be fine doing it. I guess he knows it's tourists most of whom do not come back...
Another review on Tripadvisor described the manager not honoring some coupons for drinks when 4 guests had driven 2 hours to get there!!

I eat there at least 1-2 times a month. Best time to go is late lunch/early dinner. Then, sit and enjoy the great food and atmosphere.You're in a great place, with a great staff, the food is awesome, so soak it all up and enjoy yourself! Have read some negative reviews, and, gotta say, those people don't get out much!
