“I was limited in what I could order because of food allergies, but what I got was delicious (veggie tacos and fries)! Thank goodness they have a dedicated fryer for their french fries because they are delicious! I really appreciate the patience and thorough answers I received as I asked all the food allergy questions.Vegetarian options: There are two vegetarian meal options and three sides, a good number for the size of their menu.Dietary restrictions: I have a bunch of food allergies, the main problems while dining out being wheat and beef. They thoroughly answered all 947 questions I asked, and I was able to safely order the veggie tacos on corn tortillas and french fries, which is not a safe item for me most of the time. I would have loved to order the veggie burger on a gluten free bun but it's not fried in the dedicated fryer.“

“The Beacon Room is a must do. We ventured upon The Beacon Room last year and had such a great experience that we talked about it throughout the year. We knew when we came back this fall we had to go again. The atmosphere is welcoming, restaurant is cozy and warm. The food.... Amazing. Staff.. amazing. In particular, Brian. We made early reservations for a hi-top (definitely make reservations). We asked if the bar was available when we arrived and it turns out it was.. which is what we hoped for. We had such a great experience with Brian last time, so this was a great surprise. Brian is attentive, personable, listens and very knowledgeable of cocktails and food recommendations. He interacts with customers, knows what they like.. all while handling a full bar. You can also share with Brian what you're thinking of ordering and what appetizer might pair up well with that. He's spot on, too! This year we had the Burrata app.. amazing. Lovely toasted bread with garlic, greens and fresh cherry tomatoes. We ordered the duck (as did I last year) and the NY strip, rare. Both came with the phenomenal Brussel sprouts, mashed potatoes and cranberry sauce. Absolutely fantastic. We each ordered dirty martinis , which were delicious and made perfectly. We will definitely be back next year and will continue to highly recommend The Beacon Room. If you are visiting the cape, we highly recommend you add this gem to your places to visit. You won't be disappointed.“

Orleans Waterfront Inn & Restaurant American • $$
3 Old County Rd, Orleans

“We recently stayed at the Orleans Waterfront Inn for a wedding. The hotel is centrally located and a good launching spot to explore the outer cape. The view of the cove from our bedroom was lovely and the wedding reception/ festivities were also great. Everyone working at the inn was very friendly and more than accommodating. The rooms were also clean and comfortable.“

Fried clam straps were bland but we made them better with all the condiments. The food overall was fresh and good. I would recommend!Dietary restrictions: Extensive gluten free menu!“

“Delicious burritos with a nice selection to choose from, or you can customize a made fresh to order option of your choice.I ordered the large sized Buffalo-Ranch chicken burrito, which was massive in size, and the ingredients tasted very fresh. They have a small selection of desserts, too. The Bailey's Whoopie in particular caught my eye esthetically. It was such a cute and a tasty treat. It's unfortunate that the prices are so high. Otherwise, I'd come here more often for the good product and friendly service.“

“Our first time dining at the Barley Neck. It was a great find.Our server Peter, was amazing and the food didn't disappoint. Peter was so attentive, friendly and added a wonderful touch to our dining experience .Peter had recommended a popular cod dish on the menu and so glad he did . We appreciated his over and beyond service, even to double check that the cod dish hadn't sold out, since it was a hopping Saturday night.I had the garden salad and pizza special and my husband had the cod dish which we shared. We enjoyed every bite of such a wide spread of delicious flavors. If the night couldn't be any better we had great entertainment from a three member band ! This topped off a ideal and joyful evening. Thank you Peter and the skilled chefs at Barley Neck and great band!“

“Before we get to the shenanigans. Service. Service is.... Service, how do I say....slow. But I mean so slow you might want to bring your will with you because you might die waiting to be greeted or to get a drink. They say be prepared, so here you go, you have been warned.Now, the ATM table was painful the first I sat here, but after a couple of visits I became to love it and called it the Captains Table. You are sitting next to the money, with the best outside view, the best inside view, everything the captain deserves. Staff is welcoming, once you finally have one of them arrive at your casket table side, but in the meantime, try to hustle a spicy margarita and a Margherita Pizza, you won't want anything else. Drinks are strong and the food is a solid bar option with great pizzas.But, get the captains table!! You will need to be entertained while you are watching no one come to you. Are you not entertained? ?“

“Thanksgiving weekend when everyone (everyone!) wants to go out to eat after the big day...We were NOT expecting great service and great food in a quaint neighborhood restaurant.- The servers were friendly, efficient and kind.- No upcharge for the substitution of fried onion strings instead of fries!- My 84 year old Mom ate the ENTIRE hamburger. Roll was fresh and the burger was cooked to perfection. (She usually only eats half of any sandwich.)- Our fish sandwiches were wonderful - flaky and cooked just right. Tartar sauce was homemade and had the perfect blend.- Brewed iced tea! Not the "tea" from the soda gun at the bar...We can't wait to go back and try more of the menu items.Only wish we could have been there for prime rib days (Mondays & Thursdays)...We don't know the staff's names but they were all great. And we had to stop into the kitchen and tell the 2 hardworking cooks/chefs how great our lunch was...Happy travels to Orleans, Cape Cod, MA everyone!“
