On-street parking was ample nearby. Menu had MANY options. Food was great. Service (Carlos) was courteous and very prompt. Carlos was knowledgable about the menu. Prices were very reasonable. Noise level was acceptable even for this 81 year old with bad hearing. Nothing not to like and a VERY pleasant evening! Will keep coming back.

Whenever we find ourselves in the area, Pier 22 is our top choice for dining. It consistently exceeds our expectations. The breathtaking view of the water sets the perfect backdrop for our meals, and the food is always a delightful experience, bursting with flavor and beautifully presented. The service is equally impressive—attentive and friendly, making us feel right at home. It truly is a standout spot that never lets us down.
