    While on vacation in Avon this summer, we had the opportunity to visit this local gem for dinner. We had a party of 8 adults and 2 children and had a great time. Food was awesome, service was wonderful. Get a chance, go visit this restaurant.

    Had a late lunch the other day at Dirty Dicks & it was excellent. The bartender, Drew, was super cool & provided great recommendations. The manager, Andrea, was also super friendly and helpful. Food was delicious and so were the drinks. Loved the chicken club wrap, middle neck clams, and tacos. They also have an a very nice happy hour menu at the bar that I highly recommend (you can even get a single taco). Check them out for sure, you won’t be disappointed!

    My family ate here over the weekend and we were greeted immediately by our server and shown to our table. Our server was very attentive and answered any questions we had. We had a very minor issue with a drink which our server immediately took care of and brought us a new one and the manager on duty even came over to check and make sure that we were enjoying our meal. The entire staff was fantastic and welcoming and the food was great. I can honestly say this was absolutely the best service that I've received at a restaurant in several years.

    Stopped in while out exploring the area. I had the Snow Crab and boyfriend got the Mariner's Platter. We got oysters on the half shell for an appetizer. The food was great. Service was great. Our server, Erica, was wonderful. Attentive and available but not hovering and too in our face. She wasn't annoyed when we kept asking for more hushpuppies, lol. Restroom was clean. Tea was fresh. We got in just before the dinner rush (4:45-5:00pm) and had the whole place to ourselves for a while.
