EXTREMELY disappointed. Fish & Chips were awful. Very oily - yet the fish was dry. I ate 1 of my 2 fish tacos... not remotely flavorful. We had just gotten into Boston after a long flight from Los Angeles. We were hungry - staying at the Marriott - but the food was not good.
We booked this restaurant for a Wedding rehearsal dinner for a party of 18. They were able to accomodate us very well, and were extremely communicative before our reservation.
The manager, Kechen, was able to make accomodations for our large party, and the service was excellent! I highly recommend this restaurant for large parties.

Fish tacos are awful. Huge chunk of unseasoned flavorless fish in hard corn tortillas.

Great food and friendly service. We tried the chicken and salmon based on our waiter's recommendation and they were delicious!

Decent hotel restaurant. Food is competently done, but nothing fancy. Service is pleasant, if a bit deliberate on pace. Restaurant space itself is very nice with good views of the wharf.
Pricey, but worth trying with the hotel food credit.

We had a wonderful dinner while staying at the Marriott Longwharf for my husbands birthday. Will definetely go back!
Underwhelming Mother's Day Brunch - High Price, Low Value at Waterline Boston Marriott Long Wharf For Mother's Day, we opted for the brunch buffet at the Marriott in downtown Boston. The restaurant itself was modern and artfully decorated, creating a welcoming atmosphere. The "double seats" provided an odd moment – sitting on one side caused the other to puff up, making the other person jump! While the buffet layout was accessible and the omelet chef worked efficiently, the food quality was a major letdown. Hot breakfast items like hash browns, scrambled eggs, and sausages were stale and bland. The cheese offering was a single type, in pieces, and the overall breakfast selection felt basic, reminiscent of a budget motel's free offering. The meat station was pork-only (which we do not eat), and the otherwise generous seafood spread (stone crabs, shrimp, oysters, clams) surprisingly lacked any fish, such as salmon. Considering the $120 per person charge, it was particularly disappointing that no alcoholic drinks were included, not even a celebratory mimosa for mothers on their special day. A small tin of chocolates for our mother at the end was a token gesture. Ultimately, the quality and variety did not align with the premium price, leaving us feeling the brunch was poor value.
Thank you for the wonderful Mother's Day brunch. The food was outstanding and plentiful. The selections were wonderful and delicious. The service was also outstanding.

Disappointing meals and staff. The only restaurant in the Marriott Long Wharf, had dinner there one night and two breakfasts. Kind of soulless, with tepid quality food which was overpriced. Service was slow and hardly attentive, without direction or proper management. Too bad, lots of choices nearby. This is the only food choice on property with the M Club closed on weekends.

Service was bad, waiter would not approach the table, instead he would stand 3 feet behind me. We ordered a bowl of clam chowder and fish and chips. We had one spoon full of chowder and the fish shows up. We told the Manager to take it back and have it re-fired when we were ready. What finally showed up was cold inside and dripping in oil. Server refilled our ice tea, forgot the ice... the tea was warmer than the fish!. No offer to compensate us for the issues plus they failed to deduct the $35 destination fee the hotel charged from the bill (the only reason we ate there in the first place so we could recoup the silly fee.
Great lunch and quick service. Super convenient when staying at the hotel.
The food and service were excellent. The atmosphere is of a hotel bar- a bit noisy with a fair amount of bustle. Tables feel a bit open to the hotel lobby unless you are lucky to get one near a window or tucked in a corner. There is a nice view if you score a good table. I would return for the food and service, but would rate the atmosphere better if it were a bit cozier and more relaxing.
An amazing lunch! Beautiful view and ambiance. A warm welcomed by Courtney who allowed us to pick any table we liked. Elmer our waiter was professional and attentive. The 3 of us choose the dining out menu and it did not disappoint. The portions were shareable. Every bite of all the dishes were flavorful. Drinks are tasty although the bartender got my Mai Tai wrong. Only suggestion I have is including a small dessert on the lunch dine out menu. Highly recommended!!!
