From tried-and-true to oh-so-new, dining options on the North Shore are diverse as its landscape

We dig clams on the North Shore, and as if to prove it, wedigclams.com is one Essex restaurant's URL. But we also dig thin-crust pizza, kimchi, BBQ, burgers, tagliatelle and...alright...lobster!

From tuck-in-your-bib in-the-rough eateries to tuck-in-your-shirt fine dining, you're sure to find the perfect place to match your appetite, your wallet and your mood. We get around the North Shore and enjoy sharing the new, the famous and the hidden gems that locals enjoy and visitors are delighted to discover. 

So shake the sand out of your flip-flops or lace up your favorite kicks and drop by or dial up reservations. Now you're ready to enjoy the laid-back vibe of the North Shore.
