Bertha's, famous for the bumper stickers hailing their mussels, has a great, grungy atmosphere. The food is okay, but avoid the mussels at all cost. I've eaten there a half dozen times and the mussels have always been gritty. Actually, "gritty" is putting it mildly. Stick to the entrees and you can have a pleasant dining experience.

The mussels are great with the sauces. Try the spinach with olive oil sauce, and the mustard sauce - they go so well with the mussels. Crab cakes taste good, a little bit salty for me but just fine for my friend, and the price is good. Two crab cakes with potato side dish for only $19 (price of Jan 05). You'll love it.
