"We had a large party of 25 in the dining room. We were advised about the air conditioning, but it was completely ineffective, making it so hot that we had to open the windows. There is no temperature control available. The service was subpar, and the food was just average. We were not informed that a 20% tip was already included, which led many of us to tip again. Overall, the prices do not reflect the quality of the food and service. The main issue seems to be a lack of accountability, as the place is run by investors. Lastly, I recommend avoiding the water; it tastes so bad that it's likely unhealthy."

I visited this restaurant for a holiday party, and we were seated in the back room. It was a very comfortable space for our group of nearly 25 people—cozy and charming! We enjoyed one...

A few weeks ago, I went for drinks at Penny Black with a friend who lives nearby, and I had a great time. The atmosphere was definitely old-school and traditional, which I really enjoyed.

Situated across the harbor, this restaurant has the potential to be a fantastic dining destination, but the food is just mediocre. It could make for a pleasant place to grab a drink, especially at the corner, though its offerings are somewhat limited.
