Ferrante's is a medium priced Italian American dining establishment. They offer indoor and outdoor seating and are established neatly next to water offering a refreshing view of the sunset if you come at the right time (4pm-7pm). The service was less than mediocre. During our outing we were waited on by a new server who clearly seemed to be struggling with their responsibilities. While that wasn't a problem, we did encounter some difficulty in getting our food, we ordered a burger, steak, and arancini. To be honest I wasn't counting the minutes but for those three items, it did take considerably longer than expected with the arancini coming after our main course, and after a reminder, as well as the steak being cold on arrival and slightly overcooked. The food however tasted fairly good regardless of its delivery. To their credit, we did ask for a table change after we had arrived and already ordered drinks as we hadn't realized they had outdoor seating. Overall, it wasn't terrible but I'd be hesitant to do anything besides delivery if I were to go again. The food was good but the service could see some improvement.
Wheelchair accessibility: The outdoor seating is located in the rear of the building and supports Wheelchair access. The indoor seating while a little cramped does support wheelchair access in the entrance.

Cosy, local and very friendly restaurant! We were lucky to be there on half price burger night, the burgers were excellent and the calamari was delicious too. Will definitely come back if we are in the area again!

My family and I had a great time eating at Ferrante’s this past weekend. The service was wonderful from the moment we stepped in the door. The server made sure we had everything we needed plenty of times and was super friendly! We started with the calamari and it was fried to perfection and had the perfect crisp. We also had a few raw oysters and they were great! I had the scallops for my main entree and they were the best I’ve ever had. I highly recommend Ferrante’s to anyone looking for a nice dinner on the water.

Today we hosted a 60th birthday party for a dear friend at this wonderful restaurant located on a picturesque marina in Winthrop. The outdoor setting provided a stunning backdrop for the celebration, making it a memorable day for everyone.
The food was fantastic and seemed to keep coming out, ensuring that our guests were always satisfied. Each dish was delicious. The drinks were equally impressive, with a variety of tasty options that kept everyone refreshed.
The service was top-notch. The hostess and bartenders were incredibly friendly and attentive, going above and beyond to make sure everything ran smoothly. Their helpfulness and positive attitudes added a special touch to the event.
Overall, I highly recommend this restaurant for any occasion. The combination of great food, delicious drinks, and excellent service in such a beautiful location made our celebration truly unforgettable.

The issue here is the service. The servers are not well trained and there doesn’t seem to be any management monitoring the area to make sure the servers are okay or if they need help so they can step in and make sure the service is going well for their guests.
I was there a few days ago and it was a mess, it took forever to get drinks and it was almost difficult to get a server to help when they brought food and we didn’t even have utensils. We enjoyed the food, the cooks do a good job but it’s almost not worth going due to the service. Hope the business hires a manager that can keep the place in good shape.

Worst food I’ve ever had out of all the restaurants I’ve been to in my whole life. Food came out so hot and it was cold in the middle which made me think they put in the microwave then served it to me. The chicken felt and looked like they picked up 2 rocks from the beach, meatballs were bland and cold in the middle. Sauce tasted like it was just served fresh out of a cardboard box in the back of a freezer. Overall was not even able to get HALFWAY through my dish. I took about 4 bites and all 4 bites were hard to swallow. Would not recommend anyone to dine here. Me and my partners stomach were starting to hurt shortly after leaving the restaurant. If I could put 0 stars I would.

I recently dined at Ferrante’s and had an exceptional experience. The ambiance was warm and inviting, with a charming blend of simple and light decor. The food was outstanding—each dish was tasty and beautifully presented. The service was attentive and friendly, making us feel welcome and well cared for throughout the meal. Overall, it was a delightful dining experience, and I highly recommend Ferrante’s for anyone looking for great food and excellent service!
I recently had the pleasure of dining at Ferrante’s and it was an exceptional experience from start to finish. The ambiance was warm and inviting, creating the perfect setting for a delightful meal.
The menu offered a fantastic variety of dishes, each thoughtfully crafted and beautifully presented. I started with the Arancini, which was bursting with flavor and set the tone for the rest of the meal. For the main course, I chose the pork chops which was cooked to perfection and seasoned impeccably. The portion sizes were generous, yet perfectly balanced.
The service was outstanding – the staff were attentive, knowledgeable, and genuinely passionate about the food they were serving. They were more than happy to provide recommendations and answer any questions we had about the menu.
To top off the meal, we indulged in the chocolate cake, which was a perfect end to a wonderful dining experience. The dessert was decadent without being overly sweet, and it left a lasting impression.
Overall, Ferrante’s exceeded all of my expectations. The combination of delicious food, excellent service, and a welcoming atmosphere makes it a must-visit. I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for an unforgettable dining experience

The food was good. The service was terrible. The staff seemed to be untrained teenagers. The bartender was slamming things around so the noise level was beyond loud. We will not return based on the service alone. We had to ask the waitress if she forgot our food. She never checked in with us while we were eating. And had to again ask her for the check. She completely ignored us besides taking our order after waiting 15 minutes. There was one other table of 2 besides us in the place and 3 or 4 employees talking at the bar. The cook isn't the problem. The front end is. I think this place may fail on service alone.

The food is amazing and the service matched. The view of the city that they have from their outdoor seating area is extremely beautiful.
The place is beautiful but we were unable to get past the appetizer, the bar tender was in bad mood slamming things around and made us completely uncomfortable .

Please don’t eat here. Food is horrible and I think the food is being made by high school kids.
