Review summary

AI-generated from verified diner reviews
Boat House Waterfront Dining offers a picturesque setting with "spectacular views" and "excellent food." Guests consistently praise the "friendly" and "attentive" staff. The seafood dishes, particularly the chowder and fish, are highlights. While slightly pricey, the "memorable" dining experience, enhanced by beautiful sunsets, makes it worthwhile.

    The burrata with roasted pears and fennel appetizer and the salmon with celeriac purée and root vegetable entree were knockouts. Six very happy people left the restaurant at the end of the evening.

    The food is very good, but surprisingly spicy hot. The rice pilaf is very spicy and so is the seafood scampi. Even the salad dressing is a little spicy hot. The service is excellent. I plan to continue to eat there. I would recommend it.

    Long term diner at The Boathouse. Always a wonderful experience. Food is excellent, although I noted reduced portion size than had been normal. And, on a sunny day, the ambiance is delightful. Service staff well trained and very pleasant!

    Beautiful location. Optional inside or outside dining. Inside is a bit loud, but with weather like this, outside is THE option! Waitress was exceptional. Food always good here.
