   Valentine’s day dinner was excellent! We had not been to this restaurant before. Off Thames Street in Bristol, drive thru the arch way toward the water to find ample parking. We were greeted by the hostess and sat inside near the fireplace. We ordered apps dinner drinks and desert. Our server was Matt who was friendly and answered all our questions. Great food drinks and service. This and a waterfront view too! A+ experience.

   Very good dinner. Larger portions than most restaurants. My husband had cod and loved it. I had an arugula salad with beets, grilled chicken. Very fresh and delicious. Great mocktails. Server was lovely & friendly. Great experience for our 2 day Valentine getaway

   It was an absolutely gorgeous day to be near the water, the food was amazing, wine was delicious, and service was impeccable. Thank you again for having us, it was a wonderful way to celebrate my birthday!

   The whole outdoor area was covered in yellow jackets, I had to move my drink to another table to try to lure them away and get them away from our food which i explained to the waitress and was surprised she still charged me for the drink as the bees drank it instead of me

   Dinner was okay. Steak tips came out medium well instead of medium and were a bit tough. My friend had the baked haddock and that was very good. Drink prices are way too high which is one of the reasons we don’t pick this place often. We pick it for the beautiful view of the harbor.

   It was my daughter’s birthday and we wanted to sit outside. Unfortunately, it began pouring. The staff was so accommodating and very patient as we moved twice. Thank you for the kindness and great service!

    They need to expand their menu. No steamers? Lobsters? We are RIGHT on the water in Rhode Island!!! Bees on outdoor covered deck-annoying and unaddressed. Solve the problem!! Dessert prices are ridiculously expensive-$9.00 for slice of pie. Overpriced food for quality. View is great, fix the rest!!
