Its central location just blocks from the Seaport Museum ensure a full house during the summer months. Although S&-P does not take reservations, they do offer priority seating for those who call ahead to get their names put on the seating list.
The cuisine here is decidedly New England with seafood as the star. S&-P offers a variety of appetizers, soups and salads as well as seafood, pasta, beef, poultry and pork entrees. Popular dishes include a seafood ambrosia with shrimp, Stonington sea scallops and crab, lobster Alfredo and 10-spice wood-grilled chicken with avocado relish and basmati rice.
