Wierd coincidence or what? and other Newburyport, MA Restaurant Reviews

Restaurant Name: The Grog

I came up to Newburyport around 7 years ago or so and ate at The Grog. I wasn't impressed with it then nor was I this time around. So the fact that I've eaten there two out of the maybe three times that I've visited this city, really makes me wonder what I 've done to deserve this?

Actually, the food is not bad here. It's look is tired and so is it's staff. The restaurant was basically empty yet we had to remind the waitress to bring us place settings, take our orders, etc. And although I appreciate that they're trying to keep a historic look to the place, the old tables and booths need a re-do and the bathroom was a mess.

Favorite Dish: I had a cup of clam chowder which was tasty but it was watery and the clam to potato ratio could be worked on. I also had a lobster salad which was very good and well prepared.
