Many locally owned restaurants are open year round for a truly
varied dining experience -- you may choose a seafood restaurant one night and
then the next night decide to sample Mediterranean, Thai and Sushi, Mexican,
International, Chinese, Irish, pub food, a pizza or steak. Seasonal restaurants

eatery that cooks the clams, mussels and lobster in pots of salt water over wood
fires.
