There will be a new spot to lounge around outside, feast on oysters and crab rolls, and enjoy a cocktail. Meet Seafood Alley, a new patio space opening outside ~SAM’S GRILL AND SEAFOOD RESTAURANT~ on Belden Place on Thursday August 27th. Managing partner Peter Quartaroli has really taken the concept of an outdoor area to the next level, with a protective awning, hardwood flooring, comfy lounge seating, and quite the eye-catching teak burl bar. Considering the classic restaurant got its start in 1867 as a seafood stand, it’s nice to see some outdoor presence again—and in this case, the digs are pretty swanky.
Seafood Alley will be open continuously Mon-Fri 11am-9pm for lunch, happy hour (5pm-7pm), and into the evening. It will have its own menu (take a look here), featuring local and sustainable seafood, including raw oysters, ceviche, bay shrimp or prawn cocktails, salads (including shrimp or crab Louie), chowder, and there’s also a steak sandwich, shrimp roll, and crab roll. You can kick back with a martini or Manhattan, beer and wine, and their new drink, The Alley Cat (cucumber vodka, Aperol, and cucumber on ice with a squeeze of lemon).
