Thick creamy chowder with the right amount of everything , half a star off for slightlu my undercooked potato’s and it could use just a touch more seasoning Excellent Lobster roll. Split top griddled hot dog bun, and tons of fresh lightly dressed lobster. quarter star off for no celery, cause I like celery in my roll. But honesty almost perfect. Food truck with everything prepped makes the experience much nicer than the crowded depressing trailer, and nice tent in the summer 

Business response:

Chris, we're glad to know how much you enjoyed our chowder and our lobster roll! We'll make sure to keep your feedback in mind going forward, and we hope to welcome you back soon for another tasty meal. -The Hooks
