A very pleasant experience I, my wife and Eddie( dog) had at Gaetano's Tavern. It was a beautiful afternoon with outdoor dining Summer is the best time of year at Gaetano’s Tavern on Main. The Soft Shell Crab, Fried Oysters and Whole Belly Clams are phenomenal. Or choose anything on the menu. You won’t be disappointed. Yum!

Wonderful spot with delicious cuisine and amazing staff! Our waitress Jill was the best - knowledgeable of the menu and very attentive. The drinks were incredible - especially the espresso martini! It was an amazing, memorable Valentines Day experience. Can’t wait to come back!
