Their food is disgusting🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮
When we arrived at the restaurant we found that it was closed!! We received no prior notification from either open table or the restaurant. I find this disturbing and unprofessional. I now have reservations about using Open Table again
WONDERFUL

We ate there before The food and service was outstanding. This time, not so much. We made a reservation on open table and got a reservation. When we got there, there was a party in progress and they wouldn't seat us. They told us they were having communication problems with open table. Additionally, they told us they were no longer honoring Groupons. Thankfully, Groupon refunded our money. I didn't like the way we were treated. I won't be going back.
The food is delicious and you can dine Al fresco with views of the water. The staff is pleasant and attentive.

Was very disappointed with the food. I ordered twin lobster tails with potatoes and veggies. Lobster was ok, potatoes were overcooked and cold, the veggies were cold and both tasteless. There were too many people waiting on our table, one would have been enough.

My recent visit to this restaurant was just as delightful as the previous one, and I can't help but be amazed. The staff remained exceptionally friendly, accommodating, and they continued to offer great recommendations. We even had the chance to chat with one of the managers or owners, who had us in stitches by the end of the night.In our large party, we had the pleasure of savoring a wide variety of dishes, from pastas to steaks, seafood, appetizers, and desserts. In my opinion, every item we tried was not just good but exceptionally tasty, seasoned to perfection, and bursting with flavor. The adult drinks were also a pleasant surprise, adding to the overall enjoyment of the evening. Even the children with us had a great time and thoroughly enjoyed their meals.While the food was fantastic, it's worth noting that it did take a little longer to arrive at our table. However, the reasonable pricing, clean environment, and the rainy weather preventing us from enjoying the outdoor seating were minor inconveniences in the grand scheme of things. I highly recommend visiting this restaurant to explore their menu of delectable offerings. I, for one, can't wait to return as soon as possible.Four stars for a fantastic experience with just a minor hiccup in food delivery timing and parking.

Took my administration team for a nice late lunch and it was delightful! Everyone had a great time and the Sangria was incredible.
Quick stop for the bday. Excellent view of NYC skyline. We were the only ones outside. Only complaint was low tide with the smell of the floor. I grew up near the East River so didn't really bother me. Had an upset stomach but the lobster ravioli made me feel much

The place looks nice and the staff was nice. However, the lobster tail and shrimp was over cooked. The fried calamari was gummy. The food was not tasty that is why this place gets two stars.

The restaurant was hotter than hell they had their AC turned off. My sea breeze was watered down. We placed our order and was then told they don't have clams. When the food came,my fried mozzarella was smothered in sauce to try and hide the fact that it was burnt. The place is overpriced for nothing. I definitely won't be going back. And I would recommend it to anyone I know.

We went for our anniversary on a Groupon. The atmosphere was romantic. Food was excellent, and the service was excellent as well. Our server Val took great care of us and took a great picture of us that I put on Facebook. Will definitely do it again.
Sadly the fishing grounds are very empty. Better off at Cape Cod.
