“We were at The Auld Triangle this past Saturday. The food, drink and atmosphere were fantastic. The wait staff was amazing. The music was unbelievable. Keohane and Kenneally played great Irish tunes and music from the 70s, 80s, etc. If you have not seen them play, make it a point to The Auld to hear them play. You need try The Auld Triangle. You will not be disappointed, and will become a regular, which I am going to become.“

“We held an event at the Bass River golf course restaurant on 6/10/23 for a party of 40. The restaurant is now run by CHG Catering with their home office in East Windsor, CT. We rented their outdoor patio with its lovely water view. Our clambake buffet luncheon included chowder, lobsters, sirloin tips, netted steamers & mussels with sausage, coleslaw, muffins, and dessert. The food was excellently prepared, delicious. The onsite manager and waitstaff for the event were friendly and helpful. In addition to the patio rental, and buffet production, they charge an event production fee that covers gratuities and coordination for setting up the event. All attendees were pleased by the experience. Not inexpensive, but not disappointed. Thank you CHG !“

“This place is hands down the absolute best!! The clam chowder was incredible and Matt, the bartender was funny, attentive and helpful! We are out of towners from Texas and huge foodies. It was all good!! We will absolutely be back. ❤️“

“I decided to stop by the bar on an impromptu visit and get a margarita because it was Cinco de Mayo. Got truly excellent service from the bartender AJ, and perfect cocktails. Wanted to nosh a bit and got the chicken fingers and they were also very good!“

“My daughter and I discovered this gem last year on our annual visit to the Cape. Our waitress then was the lovely Ayta, and we were fortunate to have her again this year both times we ate there. She is so genuine and personable, with a vast knowledge of the menu. I couldn't resist having the chicken picatta with risotto cakes twice simply because it is just excellent. We certainly plan on a return visit next year, and hope Ayta will still be there.“

“What a Fantastic place ‼💯🤩 The Osso Buco , Eggplant Rollatini,Chicken Francaise were perfect . Dario provided exceptional service and even the music created an unforgettable dining experience. Will be back many more times in the years ahead for this extraordinary restaurant.“

“I had family staying at the resort so we thought we'd go have a drink and catch some live music here. I'm not sure this would be the place I'd go for a good dinner but the drinks were good and the bar service was attentive. The live music was good and the vibe was fun. The couple next to us got nachos that they said was very good. My sister and I order a side of fries to munch on but the order was super small. I'd go back for a drink but probably not to eat.“

“Joel served a wonderful luncheon for the Dennis Niners this past week- a variety of sandwiches plus caprese salad then fresh from the oven strawberry shortcakes that was out of this world! Thanks again for making our Fun Day tourney special! Gayle Olson, Niners President“

“I always love going to Tap City ! But this past Friday night they took things to another level of excellence. Friday of Labor Day weekend , we got lucky with the last outdoor table for two. We were in a rush to get to the show down the road. So when the waitress came up and asked if we would like anything to drink, I asked if it was at all possible to put in the whole order now so we could get going. Wow! They did not disappoint. Beers came out. With in 7-10 minutes the steak and cheese, and the beet salad came out Steak and cheese was delicious beet salad was second to none. The entire experience was 30 minutes . Which still gave me time to go across the road and buy a new hat I love this place. It’s my favorite place on Main Street.“

“Friendly staff, great service, good food and nice atmosphere.“

“Our go-to every Friday night! Madison is almost always our waitress and knows our drinks before we even sit down! Our favorite spot hands down!“

“Delicious food and drinks. Dining while watching the boats in the harbor. Great service from the first interaction at the host stand. 10/10 !“

“Friendly and inviting staff Awesome spirits Divine entrees“

“We had a delicious fresh seafood meal with spectacular sunset views of the harbor. Yummy cocktails and Great service too.“

“We've been coming here for years. Something happened recently, perhaps ownership/management changed. Still good food at a fairer than expected price. Decor is a little dated. But we witnessed the manager on a visit recently acting crazy. Yelling (in her face) at hostess, then he's in the face of the bartender yelling at him. Then he slams his fist on post of booth we were sitting in. Definitely a man child with anger issues. Food is still good and price is fair, but the manager could ruin this long establishment with his childlike temper. This man's rage had the poor waitstaff running. Not kidding. They were running. A little off putting.“

“Loved the decor and sitting at the bar with Michelle as our bartender and server. She had an awesome personality and loved talking to her and she listened to what we had to say and showed interest. Food was great and I got the trio enchiladas she recommended. 🌮🌶️🥑“

“Food was awesome, staff were amazing. and the view was beautiful.“

“Decided to try another local spot for dinner. Checked out their menu a head of time and their daily special of chicken pie and other specials seemed like a winner. We ordered 2 chicken pie dinners which came with a garden salad and mashed potato and butternut squash. The pie was very flavorful with a light flaky shell. The butternut squash was flavorful without being overly sweet or spiced. The mashed potato’s were homemade and lacked a little spice. Also ordered the fried scallops which she said were very flavorful And tender. We’ll definitely be coming back here again. These prices were very reasonable. $55 for our 3 meals.“

“Came here with a group of about 25 people and had such a great experience! The service was impeccable, especially considering how large our group was. Austin was our waiter and he was absolutely phenomenal—attentive, friendly, and made sure everyone was taken care of the entire time. Everything ran so smoothly and we never felt like our group size was an inconvenience. Great food, great atmosphere, and even better service. We’ll definitely be back!“

“Great breakfast , nice portions, price and service. Four of us were seated right away with no waiting. Service was excellent we had Polina for server and she was the best. Definitely will be back there.“

“one of the greatest places we have been to in a long time. would definitely recommend eating here, everything was great, no complaints. definitely 5 stars.“

“We visited at the beginning of summer. The staff was more than accommodating with our daughter who is in a wheelchair. Food was fantastic. The server was great. We will be back“

“We hosted a 30th party this past weekend and had a wonderful experience. John was very helpful in answering all our questions months ahead oh time and was very accommodative. Unfortunately the weather was not on our side but luckily the tent outside was very nice and the staff was amazing in helping us have as much fun as possible. The BBQ buffet was the perfect option for us and the food was served hot. When the live band canceled due to weather, John asked the DJ to come in early. Overall we had a great night and thank all the staff at Trader Ed’s! I would highly recommend hosting an event here!“

“My daughter and I had a wonderful lunch at Sundancers yesterday ! We sat outside on the deck with a fantastic view of Bass River ! Excellent service (Jesse was our server) , he was attentive, courteous and fun to talk with ! The Fries were amazing and the fish was delicious 😋“
