Greta place to eat if you are in Jamestown. We just had dinner there for Valentine’s Day and the view of the water is incredible as well as their patio. The drinks are very tasty and the food really healthy. We even went an hour early from our reservation and while they were busy they managed to accommodate us which was a plus. Would definitely recommend if you are in the area or just visiting Jamestown!

Waitress Ashley was super set and amazing! However we ordered calamari as an appetizer and the calamari was rubbery and the breading kept falling off before you could eat it. Then entrees came and my lobster roll was really gross. The lobster meat was overcooked and tasted frozen. Ashley took it off the bill and offered something else! When you sit there are 3 entrances. One entrance was in the middle of the restaurant so when someone opened the door a super cold breeze kept coming in. I had to keep my jacket on the whole time.

Outstanding Valentine's Day Lunch with three essential women in my life. Casey was an exceptional server with suggestions, prompts, accommodating, and a great wit and sense of humor. Food, as always was well prepped, well presented, amply served, and delicious! The owner, John visited our table took time to engage and tell a few stories. All-in-all, excellent restaurant with an exceptional view of the Bay and Newport.

Super lovely place, great ambiance and views. Great service and really good food. Interesting menu with so many choices we wanted to try. Lost a star for serving fake cream. This level of dining should never serve fake cream. This was every bit as good as we hoped. Thank you!
