The menu has many choices in Entries and Apps- from land ; sea; vegetables, soup, salad. Quiet dining and lively barroom. Surrounded by a beautiful town.
I love Essex and all the shops and restaurants in the area, Black Seal is one of them. Great atmosphere and prices are reasonable.
Overall they have good food, but certain items are a no go. For appetizers, the French onion soup and stuffed clams are incredible. Additionally, the burgers are very good. However, there are many items on the menu that are just meh. For instance, the fish and chips are heavily breaded, very greasy, and lacking in flavor. The environment is cosy and warm, and the waiting staff is friendly.
I've been dining here for years, and I've never been let down. I have also ordered the Black Seal burger every time. I got to see a new friend who is about the age I was when I first came here, then named Tumbledown's...
