The food was delicious and the prices are great!! I got loaded steak tips onion rings FYI the onion rings are so delicious and the steak tips were cooked to perfection !! It only cost me 25 and mind you it wasn't just me eating I was with a good friend of mine. And we both got loaded steak tips and we each got a soda!! THAT'S AMAZING TWO PEOPLE AND WE EACH HAD LOADED STEAK TIPS AND ONION RINGS AND A EACH HAD A GLASS OF SODA FOR ONLY 25 FOR TWO PEOPLE!! And the size of the plate was a good size. I definitely will be going back there to eat again I can't recommend it enough!! I give them 5 star's!!

Met some friends there. They are frequent diners. We really enjoyed the food. The fish cakes were excellent. Enjoyed the chowder. I had the lobster roll, it was good, not great. My husband had the fried clams they were very good. Nothing was overly salted. Overall we enjoyed the food and will definitely return. The waiter was excellent as well, very attentive. We will be making the trip from Rhode Island again.

Went to lunch after hearing a review on the radio. Must say I was not disappointed. The meatloaf was perfect size, mashed potatoes were excellent, but the summer squash was just so delicious. I could have ate just that and been happy. Definitely will be back to try another special. Delicious

Outstanding food! I come here everytime I visit my in-laws on west island. They’re good is always delicious and fresh. Best hollandaise sauce in town! I used to be a fan of another breakfast spot near by, but once I tasted Macs nothing comes close. I miss it when I’m away. Service is always friendly. They’re cash/check only, no credit cards!

I have been looking for a good place where I could get seafood. This place is my new favorite. Kudos to the chef and wherever the seafood comes from. Fresh food.
