Otter Cove Restaurant & Bar in Old Saybrook offers a cozy atmosphere with wood paneling and a fireplace. The menu features Irish specials like whiskey honey glazed salmon, corned beef and cabbage, and Shepard's pie. Guests appreciate the seafood risotto, potstickers, meatballs, baked scallops, and the Chicken Cordon bleu, noted for being crispy on the outside with a slight sweet flavor and perfectly cooked chicken. The restaurant provides a full service bar and ample outdoor seating in a private courtyard with a water fountain, creating a peaceful setting. Parking is convenient with spaces in the front and back, and wheelchair access is available. Service is friendly and attentive, with staff like Sandy and Kristin receiving high praise for their hospitality. The outdoor patio is perfect for enjoying drinks such as margaritas or Port wine. The firecracker calamari and tomato bisque continue to impress, while the chocolate lava cake is a popular dessert choice. Many customers find the OC salad with chicken or shrimp to be a favorite, and the lobster ravioli is also highly recommended. Overall, Otter Cove provides a very nice experience, making it suitable for a delightful dining outing.
