Patio table with space heater was perfect for early autumn dinner on the patio. Food was very good, although lukewarm, not hot. We’ll attribute that to the crisp evening air. Hall of Fame Chowder and mussels were stand outs. Paella just ok.

One of the best meals and dining experiences we’ve had in some time. Our waitress was ver accommodating and attentive but not intrusive. Had not had Paella in years and the Boathouse’s rendition was delightful. Highly recommend this always great restaurant with ambiance that’s hard to beat.

My favorite restaurant. Food is great and service is wonderful. My husband ordered some kind of shrimp sandwich which he wasn’t crazy about. Just a few pieces of shrimp and lots of bread. But normally we love it there.

This was not our first time at the Boat House. We’ve had parties there before and have gone numerous times to eat. The area is quiet and the view regardless of the weather is always nice. Food was delicious. I had the piallea my wife had the scrod and the kids had a hamburger and the other pasta. Cooked to perfection. Very tender and the tasted great. Definitely be back.

The restaurant was very accommodating as we were 20min late for our reservation. We were at the movies and it ran later than expected. From the host to the waitress who I might add was awesome! We had the grilled shrimp and roasted cod shrimp was cooked perfectly the cod wasn’t cooked thoroughly mentioned this to our waitress she immediately returned it to the kitchen. The cod dish was comped without being asked and I was given a whole new plate of Cod. My Wife ordered a desert to my surprise I received the same dish comped. I would highly recommend the Boat House if you are looking for a great dining experience. The staff there is awesome!

When we arrived our table was not ready. We waited about 20 minutes so we accepted a low table instead of a high top because the wait would have been longer.

Another fabulous dinner at the Boat House! My seared scallops were delicious and cooked to perfection! My husband loved his shrimp and scallop scampi and our friends really enjoyed their Statler chicken. The service was great and our table on the outdoor patio had the most amazing views of the bay.

Service was great, but we waited almost an hour for our entrees. We received our appetizers quickly and then waited. By the time our entrees arrived, we weren't hungry. We brought most of our meals home.

The ambiance and view were exceptional for our lunch. The windows are huge and were open, so the soft breezes were allowed to come through. Our server was delightful and very efficient as well as making sure that my guest's specific requests (a vegan) were met. Food was delicious. I have been before and will go back again, especially for special occasions.

Our waitress was inattentive, to say the least. We had to ask other waitstaff to get her when we needed something and tear her away from rolling setups. My food was cold and took forever to come out. We were given less-than-par table seating; I should have requested a move, but I didn't want to make a fuss as we had guests with us. Our last visit was completely different; great table, great service, great food. I think we just had a bad waitress on a bad day.
