Although lobster mac ’n’ cheese has been popping up in various establishments around the area, the lobster mac you’ll find at Riverhouse Inn is hands-down the best.

While seafood is their specialty (with everything from salmon cakes to shrimp pasta), the menu is ripe with other options. If wings are your thing, be sure to try out the variety of sauces they offer here.
