Criminey!! This place and all it's fishhouse funkiness is the ATMOSPHERE!! The food is super!! ....and yes they do serve their food on paper plates. Are you there for the food or are you going to propose marriage?!! Man alive!!.There isn't a line of people at prime time that wraps around the building for nothing! The owners have been serving food the very same way since the late fifties or early sixties. If you normally don't like red clam chowders, than this place will convert you, but only to theirs! Take this from a creamy white Boston clam chowder die hard lover. They make their clam chowder with a light tomato with potato, yet creamy, clammy yet mild delicious taste, using large strips of select clam meat that has NO sand grit in them. All the other shish kabob seafood skewers and fish and chips and fried clams are great too! Oh and don't forget to mail a free postage, postcard to your friends and family right from the restaurant!
