Calls itself “Serious Seafood” and according to the menu this means that the seafood is fresh and arrives daily from the local pier. Now one would think that seafood this fresh would mean a menu that is printed daily. However, aside from the specials, the menu is pretty much the same from week to week and includes such dishes as “Sesame Seared Tuna”, “Crab and Lobster Risotto” and “Portuguese Seafood Stew (Cod, mussels, clams, scallops and shrimp with chorizo sausage simmered in a white wine and tomato sauce).

On this visit we only had the opportunity to try one entree — the one pound “Lobster Kristina”. The center piece of this dish is a shucked Maine lobster that has been flambéed in cognac and is served in a cream and butter sauce. We were pleasantly surprised at how well the cream and butter sauce accented the Lobster. Not over powering and not too sweet. This dish combined with the excellent service and light live music coming from the baby grand piano made this experience one in which we will want to repeat next time we are in or near Nashua, New Hampshire.
