Our food was good but a bit overpriced. Bits of broken glass were on our table. Even though we sat at a corner table in the dining room the conversations from the few people at the bar was disruptive.

Lovely staff , warm ambience , love words so I cannot explain why I am at a loss for them, but I am drawn to this place over and over again - a blend possibly of a certain sophistication, style, cheerfulness, neighborhood feel,, comfort and quiet even when crowded...

This was Burgerbender week and we had come to have their burger. They didn't have it! Ran out out of brisket! Poor service, they forgot part of our order and food was poor. Waiter reeked of cigarettes! Overall bad experience. Will not return.

Although we have lived on the island for many many years, this was our first experience since the reconstruction and we were not disappointed. Our server, DAN, was pleasant, helpful and SUPER attentive. The restaurant/bar space is contemporary, hip and well appointed-all areas immaculate and comfortable. The menu, while not extensive, is varied enough. Their calamari is phenomenally flavorful and a stand out item, for sure. The jazz trio added to the ambiance and the mood - relaxed and light. Five stars 🌟 all around for this local gem. We will ASSUREDLY make it one of our favorite spots! Well done 👍🏼

The waiter was sweet but i was beyond disappointed with the food. It was my birthday and i was expecting a lovely dinner and a full restaurant. The place is in a motel/hotel the place is pretty small and i booked on a sunday so i was expecting it to be lively but i was unfortunately disappointed. My boyfriend got a pasta dish that tasted like dish water and baby food mixed, my food was cold and the potatoes were pretty much raw, the chicken sandwich my friend got was almost like school food. The appetizers were also pretty disappointing. I got the hot honey flatbread but it looked like a box pepperoni pizza with barely honey drizzled, my friend got a Cesar salad and he got a whole head of lettuce with dressing drizzled on it. I left hungry and disappointed and i ended up ordering food when i got home.

My salmon was overdone. I asked for a non gluten starch but Only French fries were offered. Not something I usually order. I was not given the seasonal vegetables, which was the second side on the menu, but our server said I didn't get the veggies because I substituted. I did substitute, but a starch for another starch. My husband had chowder and the Raviolis, which he liked very much. There was a problem with the bill, which is still being worked out. Our friends ordered the steak and potatoes. They seemed satisfied.

We were out of town for Thanksgiving and The Helmway was wonderful. Great dinner, very kind staff, and very reasonable. A little gem.

Staff is friendly and attentive. All the dishes we ordered were delicious…the chimchurri sauce was seasoned perfectly. Cinnamon bread pudding with chocolate sauce and ice cream was perfect ending.
We had a wonderful server and she made some great suggestions, and our meals were delicious. We will definitely be going again.

We had dinner and returned the next morning for breakfast. Service was excellent, super attentive. We had scallops and lobster ravioli, restaurant partners with local producers, meal was delicious. Pleasant space to eat, not loud or distracting. Highly recommend.

Opentable Diner
Breakfast buffet was basically identical recipes to what you would get at a low category Hyatt for free, not worth $40 for two
