Their arugula avocado salad is a delight. Fresh ingredients, savory dressing and the add on grilled shrimp was absolutely delicious. This is a small salad portion. As you can hopefully see from the picture, it is quite generous.

Another work commitment commute brought me to the beautiful state of Maine. I stopped at The White Duck Brew Pub with a friend. The seafood here is very fresh and not greasy. We ordered the crab cakes and calamari. The crab cakes were lumpy with bits a crab and the calamari was “melt in your mouth” fresh and delicious. The salad and fish tacos portions were quite generous. The have outdoor seating as well with live music. The staff was friendly and accommodating.

The servers were accommodating and friendly. The waterfront location is lovely. We ordered the onion rings at a friend’s recommendation. They were very good. My son ordered the poke bowl and I ordered the scallops and risotto entree. The risotto was the star of the dish. The scallops (all four of them) were over cooked. They were dry and chewy. I understand their sandwich combos are better. As for my selection, I will add that the entree is overpriced when compared to similar entrees at the other Falmouth area restaurants.

Service was phenomenal! Shout out to Deidre who answered our questions and gave good recommendations. My guests raved about their entrees: fig and prosciutto pizza, wild mushroom ravioli, black bean burger and salmon burger. I ordered a medium well burger with a little pink in it. It was well done but I enjoyed it nonetheless.

This wasn’t our first choice. We started at the restaurant next door to this one. However, we were so glad for how things turned out. We ordered shrimp dumplings and a seafood appetizer that would delight all ceviche lovers out there. It’s called Fuji Mountain. Oh my! I will remember it as Japanese ceviche extraordinaire. Their lunch menu is available until 3:30pm. The portions are generous. The shrimp curry with pineapple and coconut milk had the right balance of sweet and spicy. It comes with miso soup and costs $8.75. The chicken with Thai basil and chili peppers was not as spicy was we thought it would be. Their service? Was on point! If you are in Vernon, CT you must check this restaurant out.
