As someone who once worked at Dad’s back in the day with the original owners, it was so disappointing to dine here today. Everything that made Dad’s great is gone. In its place is greasy fish, way too many fries, disgusting tartar sauce, and no onion rings on top. It is so sad to see everything in Niantic changing. Our quaint seaside town is gone. And now the food at Dad’s is as well, $68.00 bucks wasted.
So I was hopeful that the change in ownership would bring good things.. but food wise it didn't. the building looks very good, the staff was also very good. now the bad news ordered the whole belly clams they were WAY over cooked the french fries were cold and looked like they had been sitting for a while. the fish tacos where also poor.. it's unfortunate I had high hopes but more than likely won't return.
So sad it was closed last year. The remodel looks amazing, fresh and clean. Outdoor dining area is bigger and better. Seafood is never cheap but when that lobster roll his your mouth.. *chefs kiss*. Kiddos inhaled the cheese urger and chicken tenders (both huge!!).
