“On our Ladies Day out July 8, 2025, we picked Seaport Grille for our dinner spot. Beautiful ocean front setting. Can dine inside or out. I had the mussles appetizer over a side of linguini that came with 2 pieces of Garlic bread. Someone got the Lobster Roll. All the food and drinks were excellent. The waiter was spot on. Very clean. Highly recommend.“

“Our dining experience was nothing short of amazing. We were welcomed with warmth and true hospitality. The owners have clearly put a lot of care into creating a space that was spotlessly clean, and the attention to detail was evident in every corner.

The food was spectacular as well! A lot of local flavors and the coconut cake was to die for. Our server Nick was the best! Can’t wait to go back.“
