Had lunch a few days ago at this friendly restaurant. Staff was attentive, the view and the entire atmosphere gorgeous. The food absolutely delicious.
It was my first time at the D'Boathouse but definitely not the last.
Thank you for a wonderful afternoon 😊

servers all had attitudes waited forever for a drink just didn't like the rudeness of the workers waited for 15 minutes for two drinks very crowded and very loud because of the bands.

Awesome food! We had the smash burger which was really good and the lobster ravioli was spectacular . Drinks were good, little pricy but good views and good atmosphere

Can hardly get seating outside without waiting an hour so tried inside very very loud. Sat almost on top of other people. Food was outstanding. Waitress was very good but needed more help. A large Outside tables only for drinking is insane when you can get more people seated there for both. Disappointed.

Cool spot with nice indoor and outdoor dining options. Good drinks and plenty of TV's showing sports. Bartenders we're hospitable and welcoming. It can get packed and you may end up waiting, so call ahead.

Incredibly rude hostesses at front door didn’t get up to greet our party, informed us they couldn’t accommodate us, and told us we should’ve made a reservation even though their website says they don’t take reservations Fri-Sun.

Complete waste of time

We had Bao buns for an app with a steak sandwich and Cuban sandwich for lunch. The food was amazing, the staff was courteous and friendly and the atmosphere perfect. Definitely going to go back.

We had dinner here tonight, and the food was fantastic. Now I understand why there’s always a wait for a table. I ordered the steak sandwich, and the steak was cooked perfectly—medium rare, just the way I asked. We also started with the crispy cauliflower appetizer, which I’ve had at a lot of places, and this was hands down the best version I’ve ever had.

Drinks were on point, too. I had a dirty martini and the house Bloody Mary—both were excellent. By the end of the meal, I was feeling pretty great.

Overall, everything from the food to the drinks to the service was top-notch. I also want to shout out to the young woman who was handling the host stand and reservations. She has a really tough job, and she handled it with grace under pressure. While I was waiting to be seated for our reservation, a couple of groups in front of me got rude with her when they were told the wait for a large party (six or seven people) could be up to two hours. Even though you could tell their attitude got to her a bit, she stayed calm and professionally explained the situation and offered solutions like booking a reservation for a future date.

One woman even tried to pull rank, saying she had a slip at the dock and was part of the marina club, as if that entitled her to skip the line. The entitlement some people have is truly something. Through all of it, this young woman kept her composure and did not deserve the grief she was getting.

So here’s the deal: if you want to eat here, and especially if you’re a group larger than two, make a reservation at least a day in advance—it’s absolutely worth it. And please, be kind to the staff, especially the host trying to do her best to accommodate everyone. There’s no reason to bring nastiness into a place that’s meant for enjoying good food, good drinks, and good company.

Great place! The compote was absolutely delicious — so flavorful!
Also, thank you for being so accommodating and switching my husband’s potatoes for vegetables without any hassle.
Really appreciate it — everything was super tasty. Thanks, guys!
