“The food an service is excellent. We both had steak and it was one of the best steaks I have ever had. The waitress was exceptional. It was our birthday and at the end of our dinner she brought us both a peice of cake . I highly recommend this restaurant.“

“We had the BEST time at Pier W! From start to finish, everything exceeded our expectations. Nick was absolutely amazing — his attention to detail and friendly vibe made the whole experience even more special. We were celebrating my boyfriend’s birthday, and it turned out better than we could have imagined. The food was phenomenal, the service was top-notch, and the entire night felt magical. Thank you for making it unforgettable!“

“Starting with the Blue Point Oysters, they were exceptionally fresh and paired beautifully with the cabernet mignonette and cocktail sauce. The balance of flavors made for a light and refreshing start to the meal. Moving on to the Lobster Mashed Potatoes, they were rich, creamy, and indulgent, though slightly heavy. The lobster pieces were generous, but I found the dish could use a touch more seasoning to enhance the lobster’s natural sweetness. The Pan Roasted Striped Bass was well-cooked, with a crispy exterior and a moist, flaky interior. It was paired nicely with simple yet flavorful sides, though the seasoning was a bit inconsistent. A minor critique would be that the flavors, while balanced, didn’t stand out as much as I expected from a dish at this price point. Lastly, the Crispy Brussels Sprouts were a delightful surprise, with a perfect crunch and a slightly sweet glaze that contrasted well with the vegetable’s natural bitterness. This dish added a nice variety of texture to the meal. Overall, the quality of the seafood was undeniable, but a little more attention to seasoning and consistency in the dishes could elevate the experience. However, the ambiance and service certainly made up for these small flaws, making it a great place for a special occasion“

“Our server was excellent. I would recommend increasing the lighting at the tables, to read the menu we had to use our phone . The good was good but prices are a bit much .“

“First time! Excited! Heard nothing but compliments. The restaurant had many open seats. We enter and a person of upper management looked up and punched in something and then directed the server. The server, under direction took us to the worst place in the restaurant. My prayer was that it wasn’t because we were a family of color. I tried hard to disregard the thought as we were directed to sit outside the kitchen door. :—/. I was getting away from the kitchen. That was the last place I wanted to celebrate our special occasion. I asked for a different place in the restaurant that was housing one other visible couple. She was very happy to oblige us. When a restaurant is full, I can understand…. But this was far from the case. The server was 5STAR ! Food 5STAR ! I will definitely try it again with hopes that it was a mistake on the management part. My hopes…“

“We were in town for the weekend and had the opportunity to share dinner with friends local to the area. Our evening was relaxed, enjoyable, and memorable. Everyone's food and drink was found on point and perfect. We will definitely return to this wonderful restaurant upon our next visit. Thank you all!“

“Decided to try something new for dinner and was not disappointed at all. I purchased the 6 piece shrimp dinner and give it a 10/10. Shrimp was GIANT and had the perfect amount of crunch! The fries were amazing and crispy. I can’t wait to come back and try the fish!“

“The food and atmosphere is amazing. I’ve been there twice now and we loved everything. Do yourself a favor and get a purple rain or a jolly rancher drink. It may have given me diabetes but it was worth it. 😂 the honey chicken was great but the soul food pasta was to die for. I highly recommend this place. The only thing better than the food was the service. Our waiter was very attentive and made his own personal recommendations on what to eat. I wish I could remember his name to give him credit but we’ll be back again!!! Update: Harold was our server and he is the greatest.“
