The Cockeyed Gull Restaurant

Went here instead of island lobster company on a whim and have less than zero regrets, if that is possible.
Likely the best wings I've ever had. They were huge and the sauce was phenomenal.
I'm also not a cake person but the carrot cake is absolutely worth getting. Hands down best cake I've ever had in my life.
Service was good, not great

Make sure you dont get there at 6:00 pm. They close at 8. But for some reason they will simply turn you away. Because they’re full. With open seats.

I would have loved to post pictures of the food, but I wasn’t able to get any. Instead, here’s a picture of me sitting by the dock waiting for the ferry, a full hour before they close.

Second time here. I had the most amazing steak cooked perfectly medium rare. The side salad was so delicious. My husband loved his burger and the fries were so tasty. Thank you for making our weekend away so wonderful. 💗

Well, the rumors are true; best food on Peaks Island is at Cockeyed Gull! I had the sesame crusted Faroe Island Salmon topped with Cilantro Aioli, rice and seaweed salad, Mike had Lamb Chops, fried asparagus and roasted potatoes. Both were yummy! Wine was great and I’m waiting for the homemade carrot cake…oops! Dug right in before taking the photo! Carrot cake does not disappoint; super heavy and moist with amazingly rich cream icing!

I, a solo diner made my way across the Atlantic to try a Halibut (Pistachio and Wasabi Pea encrusted topped with a Jalapeno Beurre Blanc and Asian Pear and Jicama Slaw, over rice) I have been hearing about. I was able to snag the last of the oh so popular dish. Presentation, Beautiful. This dish was so well executed I felt like Maneet Chauhan as a judge on Chopped explaining all the depths of flavor this dish had. It was nothing I have ever tasted before. This family owned and operated restaurant takes pride in what they provide for the locals and island visitors. Come out and enjoy a distinctive dining experience unique to the area that has a kitchen crafted with true culinary expertise.

Arguably the most upscale restaurant on the island. It is rather small so depending on when you go it may be difficult to get a table. As with all the other places on the island, it is subject to having low stock or availability of various foods, which was the case for us. There was a large group eating dinner at the same time and they were out of the steak, haddock and lobster when we went to order. My wife was very impressed with her scallop scampi and the server was pleasant and prompt.
Check with the restaurant on the night you want to eat as hours of operation seem to vary online versus in reality.

Very rare for food to match its taste with its cost, it's not cheap, and that's a compliment. Excellent service and laid back environment

The food here is DELICIOUS!!! One of the best views in Peaks Island off the outdoor balcony deck. We ordered the cucumber salad, the salmon and the scallops. For dessert the carrot cake - which you could taste it wasnt store bought, but rather made with love - and chocolate balls. Everything was amazing, but especially the scallops. Our server was also very kind and friendly. Don’t let the lack of curb appeal fool you, this is a must stop hidden gem.
PS: I noticed you guys only respond (hilariously) to the negative reviews (I hope to receive a comment from THE Cockeyed Gull Restaurant) 😉

Food and vibes were phenomenal. Our server Christian was so friendly and attentive! I live in Portland but would absolutely take the ferry just to eat here again
