Simple and delicious menu from a restaurant that has their own fishing boats. Fried scallops and clams were as good as they can be. I look forward to clams every time I get back to NB, and these were exactly what I hoped for. We started with mussels; steamed in their own juices, served with drawn butter. These were next level good. We took home 4 freezer packs of scallops and one of lobster meat. Gently thawed some of each yesterday, and both are wonderful.

Small town fishing village. Fresh scallops and lobster directly out of the bay. From the bay to your plate. Beautiful view of the bay. Food was fantastic. Great meal for the price. It doesn't get any better. Also has a seafood market inside to buy fresh lobster.
