read moreLocated next to the Goodspeed Opera House with a beautiful view of the river, the restaurant offers a nice menu with options like fish, prime rib, and chicken. While some customers experienced issues with out-of-stock items and slow coffee service, others praised the Lobster Mac and Cheese and the Short Rib Sandwich. The service was friendly and the atmosphere was casual and welcoming, making it a great spot to enjoy sunset over the Connecticut River.
