    Very professional service from start to finish. Wonderful table near the window with views. Waiter was good, food was great. Fish and chips was delicious and huge serving. I had Brussels sprouts substituted for fries, which was appreciated. Cosmo was very good but at $15, a bit expensive. Banana cheesecake was excellent as well. Can’t go wrong at The Boathouse. Just bring a little extra cash.

    From beginning to end our experience was exceptional. From entry to exit our encounter with Boat House staff was casual and friendly. Our server was a model server -attentive, thorough, and responsive. The food was perfect from the starters to the entrees.

    We were there for my mother-in-law‘s 90th birthday. She ordered the lobster roll and thoroughly enjoyed it. My husband and I both had the Clam Chowder which was delicious and I had a salad which was also very good. For dessert my mother-in-law ordered the sorbet and Morgan the waitress came out with candles on it. Our table was a corner table facing the water and the views were wonderful. Morgan was top-notch. All in all very nice experience.

    We originally planned to make reservations for a restaurant in Providence that we love but the location/timing didn’t work out for our large group. We checked alternatives online and remembered we had been to the Boathouse years ago during the summer and decided to book a couple weeks in advance. What a fantastic time we had! Food was absolutely delicious and service was top notch (thank you Holly!!!!). Three generations of family and some picky eaters; and nearly every plate polished off. You can’t go wrong with anything here! The calamari was light and tender. Not rubbery at all! The gentlemen all had some oysters and found them fresh and refreshing (the rest of us had a chuckle over their faces from the cocktail sauce with horseradish. They were not expecting the hear lol though it was very good). Swordfish was absolutely delicious; the grilled shrimp platter was more plentiful than we had thought… oh my the fish and chips—- wow the batter was delicious! Filet was cooked to perfection and the glaze it came with just put it over the top. The salmon had the perfect crisp on the outside but tender and juicy within. The lobster roll also! Wow. That shut up our 15 year old with the bottomless pit. We had kind of thought of this restaurant as a summer only place but they have definitely changed our minds and have gained some very happy and loyal patrons today! Thank you again! Your restaurant is amazing! We had the absolute best time today.
