🛑 Disappointing Experience at Mariners Gallery

I genuinely hate leaving negative reviews, but my visit to Mariners Gallery was beyond frustrating. Despite the restaurant being nearly empty—with only about half a dozen patrons—my party waited close to two hours for our meal. The focus seemed entirely on one particular table, while the rest of us were left to feel invisible.

It took over 90 minutes just to get an appetizer, and even our drinks were delayed. The waitress took our order only to immediately leave and help someone pay, disappearing for another 10–15 minutes. The disorganization was astonishing.

When the food finally arrived, it was simply not worth the wait—poorly prepared and frankly inedible. I let them know kindly, hoping for some acknowledgment or courtesy adjustment. Instead, I was charged the full amount—over $40—for a meal I couldn’t even eat.

Overall, this was one of the most disappointing dining experiences I've had. From the slow service to the low-quality food and lack of accountability, it’s safe to say I won’t be returning. 10/10 do not recommend.

Food wasn’t great. Got about half way through my meal to find a hair in my food. Then told no refund or discount because there’s no manager on site and “they can’t do that without them.” Don’t eat here. Won’t be coming back.

I ordered the Atlantic Salmon Newburg for $31.95, described as pan-seared and topped with a special lemon sauce. Unfortunately, the dish did not meet my expectations. The salmon seemed more boiled than pan-seared, and the portion was quite small, accompanied by some underwhelming boiled carrots. Given the high price, I expected a more impressive meal, especially compared to Mamattuk's delicious salmon burger, which is reasonably priced at $25.95. I hope Mariners Gallery considers updating their menu and improving the quality of their dishes.
