“Delicious breakfast and friendly staff!”

“Beautiful place and location … Food and drinks were delish. And super great staff ! Highly recommend! Coming back to sit outside when it’s warm!”

“I highly recommend this amazing place to anyone who loves homemade delicious food and amazing down to earth people! My family and I found this place last year on our way home from our vacation in Rockport and we have not stopped thinking about it since! We finally were able to come back this year and it is just as good (if not better) then I remembered it being. The homemade blueberry muffins are a must but you really can’t go wrong with anything on there menu! The outdoor sitting has the perfect amount of shade and we love watching all the cars go by while eating our food. I can’t wait for our next vacation to Rockport so we can go here again!”

“This small sea side restaurant is very deceiving. It doesn't look like much but let me tell you the food is AMAZING!!!. I love a good fish and chips and this place has the best I've have ever had. Like literally the BEST. Also my kids never finish there food and they ate every bit of there burger with my 2 daughter's saying it's the best burger they have ever had. If your in Rockport you absolutely have to stop in. If i could give 10 stars i would”

“Breakfast was good, all around, but bring a restaurant with no facilities with “Covid” as an excuse is lame. We’re in the endemic stage Massachusetts, get with it!”

“Best shrimp scampi Very clean and organized”

“Cool vibe, little seating area in the shade outside but its only 4/5 seats. Fast, efficent and friendly service. And delicious ice cream. Mid range pricing.

Kid-friendliness: A few seats outside, that are good for small kids.”

“food was great and staff was wonderful! absolutely recommend!”

“Really small and lively spot, full of locals and conversation. The food was just perfect! soft scrambled eggs, crispy bacon, seasoned potatoes, and really good toast. Coffee was strong too. One of the best breakfasts I’ve had in a while.”

“By far, the highest quality and tastiest Chinese cuisine in the area. Family-owned and operated, HKK has been consistently good for many, many years. With hands-on attention to every detail, along with careful preparation of a wide variety of home-made and old-country recipes, you will be surprised and delighted by everything you order. Look for the colorful "OPEN" flag at the beginning of Railroad Ave and stop in. You'll be glad you did.”

“They have a nice selection of Ice Cream Flavors. The prices are reasonable. Service is fast and good.”

“Our favorite place for a ice cream on Bearskin Neck, so good!”

“Great Baristas! Beautiful views to enjoy your favorite coffee drinks 😊”

“Excellent fried clams and fried fish.”

“We heard of this originally on the TV show Phantom Gourmet, and finally got for a dinner in mid January. This was a truly excellent dining experience.
The dining room on the first floor is simply and beautifully decorated and there is very nice background music playing (softly). It is a very comfortable room and easy to have a conversation
The staff are friendly and knowledgeable and very attentive.
The food is outstanding. They had French onion soup on the menu and it was delicious and arrive very hot. For entrees we had the lamb chops and the Portuguese style fish stew - both were excellent. We split the Coco Daniel for dessert which as delicious and not too filling.
We’ll definitely be back!”

“Lobster Track Ice Cream 🤤 Friendly service!”

“Delicious haddock sandwich and fries”

“We were looking for ice cream places and this one popped up eventually! It should be everyone’s first choice! They have such unique and creative flavors. Never had better ice cream in my life. They deserve all of the hype and praise.”

“Always love dinner here. They have a nice variety of slightly different than normal pizza and their rotating specials are also often something interesting. Cocktails and oysters never fail either. Highly recommend.”

“This little food truck is putting out amazing traditional pizza. Real fire, fresh ingredients, and the ability to order online ahead of time. Highly recommend you stop here and see why the reviews are all so good”

“The food was SO good and our server was super sweet.”

“What a special experience last night was! I spent the evening with my 14 year old granddaughter and 7 others enjoying an evening we will never forget. My granddaughter felt the evening was one of the highlights of her summer. The food was unbelievable, the atmosphere was wonderful and our chef and hostess were incredible! I would recommend this experience to anyone who enjoys sushi!”

“Chicken Salad is amazing. Good Iced Tea too”

“My girlfriends and I stopped into this little diner on a whim, and I’m so glad we did! The food was absolutely delicious (classic comfort food done right!) Everything tasted fresh and homemade, and our meals came out surprisingly fast. The staff couldn’t have been friendlier!! They treated us like regulars from the moment we walked in. You can really feel the heart and pride they put into their place. Definitely one of those hidden gems that makes you wish every restaurant still had this kind of charm and hospitality. We’ll absolutely be back!”

“Amazing cannolis and cookies. This placed smelled delicious!! Love the little tables on the sidewalk! And the Italian music just added to the experience!”

“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.”

“We have been coming to Gloucester for 20+ years and just happened to find this gem. The food was fresh and plentiful and the staff was out of this world. This restaurant has now been added to our yearly list of places we visit. Thank you for a wonderful experience. A+++++++++”
