Matt and his team hosted a rehearsal dinner for us and honestly it was spectacular. Matt worked with me prior to the event to make sure all our dietary needs were looked after. They did appetizers ( a table as well as passed) then a buffet dinner for 28 people. Chicken kabobs, salads, ravioli with short rib and no one will stop talking about the the platters of shrimp and chicken wings. What’s in that aoli?? The drinks were expertly made and flowed freely and expeditiously. We lucked out on November weather and were able to utilize the front deck which was beautifully laid out as well as the inside of the restaurant. We ended our evening with a beautiful vanilla panacotta dessert that was served to our tables and I’m pretty sure no one’s bowl went back anything but empty. We can’t thank you and your staff for going above and beyond to make our night so elegant and special.This place is a hidden gem for sure and special shoutout to Kimberly and our awesome bartenders as well!
Excellent fish special. Fast service. Nice waiter. Will go back ASAP.

Love this place. cozy inside, the entire staff was so nice, our waiter was excellent, wish I knew his name young man, superb service. We got the chicken kebab entrée and the short rib ravioli, the tiger shrimp appetizer was outrageously good! Def recommend.
It's a perfect little lunch spot. I had the flatbread pizza with pesto and chicken, and my husband had the fish tacos. We enjoyed our lunch on the patio overlooking the ocean.

My organization recently hosted a team dinner at Yella on the Water, and I want to share how great of an experience we had. We worked with Matt to plan our menu and flow of the evening. We hosted a short and informal arrival/cocktail gathering on the patio. The view overlooks the water and was perfect on a transitional summer-to-fall night. We ordered a few appetizers which were setup as a station and the servers took drink orders. It was a lovely ambiance. We then had entrees and dessert inside. Our team pre-selected meals ahead of arriving, though the team was able to make adjustments on-site, and this made for a smooth and quick transition. The food was delicious. Notably, they accommodated several dietary restrictions including a gluten allergy, vegetarians, and dairy free guests. All of the allergens are clearly noted on the menu, so it made planning and selecting easy, too. Throughout the entire night, Matt and the service team were fantastic. They were so kind and nice to engage with. Our team raved about the location, food, service, and ambiance. I highly recommend Yella on the Water for a group dinner or just as a restaurant to visit!

I would classify this place as a hidden gem. It is right across the water and the food, staff and atmosphere is fantastic!! There’s free, on site parking and seating available inside and outside. Special shout out to Anna who was incredibly attentive and provided great service. I highly recommend getting the sumac honey lemonade. Sweet, refreshing and made in house. We will definitely be back.
Amazing isn’t even the word. Food is fresh and fabulous. Drinks were outstanding and our service from Marissa was above and beyond. When in Gloucester, make this a must on your itinerary.

Looked ok. Small place on the waterfront. Other reviews say dog friendly on patio. They are a hard NO as of this date.
