Went to FFS for the first time last Saturday. My friend had raved about the steamed clam special, which we ordered one each of, plus a duck salad to share, and drinks. The clams would have been OK if not for the inclusion of pretty-shelled, but gross-to-eat longneck (I think that's what they're called) clams. The duck salad was overdressed, weighing down the delicate baby lettuces, and the duck iteslf (which I normally adore) was gamey and poorly-seasoned. My glass of wine was good (cote de rhone) and my friend seemed to like his fiery martini made with jalepeno, but I didn't care for it. Just not my taste. Other than the food, the service was slow and not particularly inviting. And sitting outside, our dining neighbor had a rodent perching on his lap, which he flung into the restaurant window, then scurried away, causing a customer or two to scream. The servers had no clue any of this happened, and when the man told them, they did not apologize or offer us anything to make up for the unappetizing experience. Not that it was their fault, but it reflects on them nonetheless. I would not go to FFS again, and I would not recommend it. Pros: Location Cons: Food, Service more
