Restaurants near Essex River

Lovely restaurant. Very attractive decor with water views. Great waitstaff. My lobster bisque was the best I have ever had. My companion’s oysters were perfect. He enjoyed his bolognese. I ordered swordfish as I don’t find it on a lot of menus anymore. It was a generous piece of fish and perfectly cooked. While all the flavors of the dish were tasty there was a bit too much happening on my plate causing the fish to get lost a bit. Overall, a great dining experience.

Went here on St. Patrick's Day for my birthday. The staff was super friendly and the food was delicious

Fantastic food and service, will definitely go again

An absolutely beautiful evening with a lovely server! Raw oysters were delicious. The shrimp cocktail was delicious and the 4 shrimp were HUGE! We were served the wrong drink but they made it right when we asked about it. The shrimp and lobster scampi were amazing on a bed of fresh fettuccine. Extensive drink menu. We both decided to drink our dessert — Irish coffee and a pistachio martini that is one of the best drinks I’ve had in a long time!! The igloo was very comfortable, temperature was easily regulated and they had extra blankets for a wrap or lap, if you felt like it was needed. Not cheap but I think it was worth it for the quality, quantity and overall atmosphere. (I’ve dined here in the summer when it is very busy and this is a totally different vibe. Both are excellent.)

The food and service is always perfect. Everything is fresh and delicious
