We visited on a Thursday night. Customers next to us were vaping. Told waitress and she apologized and told manager. But nothing was done to alleviate the smoke blowing at us. Don’t go here for the food. It’s the view. Also live music was too loud given its quality.

I mean its passable, but the prices are double what the food should be, the menue is super limited, and all your drinks come in plastic cups. Also the smash burger is just overcooked patties not a smash burger.

The drinks are delicious but the food in my opinion is terrible! The lobster roll was dry and didn't taste fresh at all (and didn't even have butter at all) and the calamari was burnt to a crisp and did not come with peppers like the menu said! I would eat before if you go here because the view is gorgeous and the service is great, just food is 👎🏽!

the food was delicous! the best burger i have had in awhile, and the sweet potato fries were great! but the waiters were only ok and the service sucked. the appetizer never came out and when we asked for an extra plate the waiter never came back. it was a bit pricy but good food.

The food is good, however the service and view are amazing. Today I enjoyed the lobster roll and oysters and my wife had a lobster roll with gluten free bread due to her gluten allergy. Its fantastic the restaurant had gluten free bread. However, the lobster was somewhat dry and tasted a little tough around the edges as if it had been sitting under a heat lamp for too long or was several days old and was reheated to the point of dryness/toughness. At $38/roll, you need to have fresh lobster out of the shell from that day. When you’re competing with amazing seafood shacks down the street like Johnny Ad’s or Skippers who always have fresh tasting lobster, you need to serve the same at a $38 price point. Everything else was fantastic.

Was randomly recommended to check out this place by some locals. It was a great place to stop for a bite to eat on the water! Our waitress Sophia was super kind and personable. The food and drinks were satisfying. The prices have definitely gone up over the years compared to the menu picture on Google so keep that in mind when you visit.

Our waitress was very sweet. That's it. The host? Manager? (Greasy long gray hair older gentleman) was so incredibly rude I was flabbergasted. We were just wrapping up lunch and paying our bill when an older couple seated themselves at a bigger round table (6 top)...he swooped over and chastised them. With an incredible attitude asked what they were doing just seating themselves. Telling them they needed to wait for their entire party before he could even entertain their presence. He was immediately aggressive and unaccommodating. It was the most atrocious behavior I've seen with someone in hospitality. He had every right (and I did agree with him) that they couldn't take up a 6 top table for 2 of them....BUT the way he spoke to them was so gross I will never go back there. I had my two babies with me, but I wish I had spoken up. I did tell the older couple that he was so so rude to them. I felt really sorry for them. They didn't deserve the way he spoke.

View from terrace seating is so awesome that I forgot to take pics of our food and drinks, which were delicious and plentiful.

Stopped in for a bite and sat in the bar area. We were attended to quickly and enjoyed the beautiful view while we waited for a bowl of chowder to start off. The chowder was excellent; piping hot, creamy and plenty of fresh clams and nice small pieces of potato. Then things went down hill. We ordered a chicken wrap and some wings. Waited about 20+ minutes for the food to come out (it was an off time and not busy with diners). When the food arrived…big surprise…it was cool (soggy fries). It had clearly been sitting, waiting to be served. We didn’t have time to send it back and wait for a redo, but we mentioned it to our server when asked how everything was. She offered to have food warmed up but we told her we didn’t have time. We were polite but pretty clear that we were very disappointed. We held out some thought that some slight offer of compensation might be forthcoming (how about taking our two diet sodas -$6-off the bill…??♀️) Nothing. So…I guess the only recourse is to share our disappointment publicly. We should have read reviews before we elected to visit. What a shame…
Good get

Food is disappointing it took 1 hour to be served prises are high for what they serve I hope they improve because it's a beautiful place I will try it again in a later time
Terrible experience. The setting is gorgeous and the dining room beautifully appointed. The gluten-free options my friend had (Caprese salad and veal dinner) were well-prepared and tasty. The wine selection was great. That was the best of it. The Caesar salads were so drenched with dressing we could not eat them. My beautiful piece of cod over spinach and fingerling potatoes was sitting in a large puddle of salt broth which completely overpowered the dish. I could not tase anything but salt. My friend's pasta with shrimp was cold, as was the extra sauce he requested. My husband's chicken was so overdone it was tough as leather. Our server, Julie, was pleasant and seemed well-informed when she answered our questions, but her service was very slow. It look a very long time for our wine to be served and even longer for the food to come out. Julie disappeared without explanation and an able young man took over. He gave us two complimentary desserts because our friend reported that his pasta was unacceptably cold. However, that compensation did little to make the evening any better. It was a hugely expensive meal when the only thing we all enjoyed was the wine.

Great food and vibe with view of water. Great music by Rahsaan Langley and the TRLP band...on a Saturday evening.
