🦪 There’s just something about a perfectly pan-seared sea scallop.

A hot pan, a little butter, and just enough time to develop that beautiful golden crust while the center stays tender, delicate and almost buttery-sweet. When the scallops are good, simple is better.

This weekend we’re serving a full ½ pound of Pan-Seared Sea Scallops, cooked just that way, paired with creamy mashed potatoes and our house-sautéed zucchini & squash medley.

If you love scallops, you already know. And if it’s been a while since you’ve had really good ones… we think this is a pretty good reason to come see us this weekend. 🦪

This weekend’s featured special is one of Chef Nate’s best: Bacon Cheeseburger Meatloaf. 🍔🥓

Served with homemade buttery mashed potatoes, it’s everything you love about a bacon cheeseburger turned into a hearty, comfort-food dinner.

🍝 This weekend’s feature comes with a bold name—and plenty of cheese to back it up.

Our World’s Best Lasagna starts with sweet sausage sautéed with ground beef, then layered with fresh basil, tomato, mozzarella, ricotta, and Parmesan between tender lasagna noodles. The whole thing is baked under even more cheese until hot, bubbly, and beautifully browned.

It’s homemade, hearty, and a generous portion 😮

Our full weekend specials menu also includes crab-stuffed mushrooms, seared ahi tuna, steak and mushrooms over pasta, Parmesan dinners, fresh haddock, and a thick-cut New York strip.

And don’t forget dessert—our cakes are locally made and picked up fresh each Friday, with favorites like carrot cake, Boston cream, chocolate mousse, and lemon. The slices are famously substantial. Plenty to share, though we won’t blame you for keeping one all to yourself. 🍰
