"We are always more than satisfied with dining here. A wonderful selection of seafood, plus options for all, and the most beautiful marina view. Even in the winter, it is always pleasant in Capt Bill's dining room. A local gem!"

"As always, Captain Bill's delivered. Started out in the bar for a beer. Bartender was extremely attentive and did a great job making a Black and Tan.
Once seated at our table by the window, our waitress did a great job of making sure we were up to snuff on the menu. Drinks and appetizers come out with perfect timing (not to soon, not to long either). A few of us chose the Tuna. This place always has the freshest fish around.

Whether you need a place for a dinner date, special event or business, you can't beat Captain Bill's."
