Fantastic food! High quality, very delicious dishes. We did not get reservations so no tables were available (highly recommend advance reservations) but were able to get two seats at the bar. We got two items from the daily specials, a mixed seafood in vodka sauce and a grilled swordfish.

An delightful restaurant tucked inside an old church which was charming.
Everything about this dining experience was perfect.
I called a few weeks in advance to book a table for Father’s Day. There were two options available: 5:15 or 8:30. I took the earlier seating that was available.
Our waitress Melinda was wonderful. She was friendly and gave us outstanding service. Our food was simply delicious. The bread was warm with a savory rye flavor to it. I’m not a bread person but we couldn’t stop eating it!
The appetizer Oyster Rockefeller has such rich, delicious flavors, with a touch of lobster on top. I enjoyed the swordfish Rivera while my husband devoured each morsel in the Pesca Fra Diablo. Both meals were full of flavor and a good size portion.
We passed on having dessert as unfortunately there wasn’t anything that interested us. That part of the menu seemed to be lacking in comparison to the rest of the menu.
The restaurant was very busy and all seats at the bar were taken. It’s a place you definitely need to try… But remember to make a reservation in advance.

Was told the reservation list would be impossible and we shouldn’t try to eat there. We walked in and were lucky that a couple at the bar were leaving right then. Great food and service! Definitely worth a stop if you’re looking for a nice dinner in Chatham.

Wow! This place was amazing! Didn’t have a reservation but was able to get bar seating for two after a short, five minute wait on a Saturday night during the summer around 7pm, though I saw others waiting longer after I was seated. Ordered off the original and specials menu. From the original menu –
Bacon wrapped scallops: amazing! The bacon provides a nice texture contrast to the perfectly cooked scallop. You get five pieces sat open some toast and covered in a nice light white sauce. MUST ORDER!
Meatball appetizer: soft and tender, not too much of a bite but perfectly seasoned and very tasty! If you’re looking for something other than seafood, give this a try!
Blackened halibut: super yums! It sits upon cheesy grits, which is a perfect companion to this moist and succulent fish. I honestly wasnt even thinking about getting this dish, but the bartender recommended it and I’m sure glad he did! Highly recommend
Specials menu –
Peach and pomegranate sangria: I could drink gallons of this delectable nectar. Perhaps a touch sweet, but I found this very drinkable and without the usual bitter notes from most other sangrias.
Dave’s third day: okay I’m not sure what the name of this drink is (I think it’s someone else’s name) but it has multiple vodkas with fresh pressed watermelon and lime juice. Honestly, pass this one, this drink did not hit and represented the only thing that I did not care for. I thought it would be refreshing but it was so bitter, maybe I just didn’t understand what they were going for.
Seafood carbonara: scallops, shrimp, lobster, pancetta in a cream sauce with noodles. Perfection! Maybe a bit less enjoyable by the end of the meal as you fill up, but those first bites are phenomenal!
The bar area was very dark, but definitely set the vibes so I’m not knocking it. If you can get a reservation, all the better. This is definitely somewhere I’m recommending to anyone visiting Chatham or Lower Cape. As an aside, I heard the oysters Sydney are super good, I can’t remember what’s on them but people were impressed!

such a fun place to eat! really enjoyed the atmosphere, food & service. put our name in for lunch & waited about 15 minutes – it is a small waiting area & it does get crowded, i’d recommend putting your name in & pop into some shops around the corner to pass the time! the lobster roll was one of the best we’ve had & the onion rings are thin cut, crispy & delicious. cocktail menu is fun and fresh as well – we would absolutely be back!

I didn’t take many good pictures other than this delicious Switchback draft. Specials here are always fantastic and the pastas are probably the best down the cape. You can get lucky here sometimes if you try and sit at the bar. The bacon wrapped scallops and stuffed oysters go CRAZY

Got here just before they closed for lunch on a Friday. Not many people there in the off season but glad they were open. The butternut squash soup was so good I think I inhaled it. I got the special rice noodle salad as my entree and it was good but huge. I also had to try the truffle fries because they sounded so good. They were piping hot and delicious. I also have to throw it out there that they had my favorite brand of fever tree ginger beer to drink as well.

This is like, my favorite place in Cape Cod I may be biased because of nostalgia, but it was a great place for my husband and I to have a romantic dinner date the last time we came, and this time it was just as we remembered. The unique flavor of this place, from the name to the charming interior decor with former church vibes, just feels special to walk into. Also, I’m pretty sure I got the Pesca Fra Diablo both times, it’s a surefire winner for flavorful pasta dish with copious seafood which is what I always want when I visit the cape

We arrived JUST as they were opening for the day and that was right on time. They fill up QUICK so early arrival is important.
I was hesitant to try their calamari but IT. IS. AMAZING! Their pesto aoili perfects the dish, oh my yum. I could have made that my meal.
My fish sandwich was delicious, but it had too much bread. It was otherwise perfect. My husband also thoroughly enjoyed his seafood platter. He was hesitant to try the oysters after a previous bad experience elsewhere but he was very happy.
We HIGHLY recommend this restaurant.
