RIVERVIEW, Fla. — When New Hampshire's St. Hilaire family moved to the Sunshine State, they missed the tasty hits from home:
Whole belly fried clams!
North Shore roast beef sandwiches with James River sauce!
Narragansett beer!

Word of mouth is spreading for the charming restaurant with the Maine fishing village vibe.
It's drawing in newbies ready to try Northeastern fare like whole shucked fried clams and thinly sliced roast beef sandwiches — and bringing in Boston transplants happy to see a familiar plate.
"We get people coming in saying, man, it feels like home and it tastes like home," says Dan.
