Fodor's Review:

Chef John Pontius consistently turns out wonderful, affordable food full of the best Mediterranean and local influences and ingredients at his beloved restaurant along U.S. 6. The unassuming roadhouse restaurant was redesigned and enlarged in 2006 -- it's now a handsome, Arts and Crafts-inspired structure. Appetizers are especially good, among them oysters Bienville (baked in a white wine-cream sauce topped with Parmesan cheese and bread crumbs), and jerk-spiced duck salad with a raspberry vinaigrette. The Wellfleet paella draws rave reviews and a steady handful of locals, but the chef is not afraid to cook down-home barbecue pork ribs, either. Off-season hours vary, so call ahead -- and be sure not to confuse this place with PJ's, down the road.

Keep in mind: Reservations not accepted.

You can't go wrong

This is an amazing restaurant. The food is fabulous and consistently wonderful The service and hostess make you feel like you are eating at a good friends home. The chef/owner listened to his customers and the noise problem no longer exists. There are paintings - photos and drapes making the place seem not as stark as when they first opened. You are missing a fine dining mecca if you don't try this place. And as a mom with children - its the only restaurant I have found that serves nutritious meals for kids - nothing fried - no burgers or dogs.Just good food!! Don't miss this gem.

Food: 5.0 Atmosphere: 5.0 Service: 5.0 Value: 5.0 RATING: 5.0
