    Absolutely delicious!!! We had beef carpaccio for an app and it was amazing! We had shrimp scampi ( no scallops) and a lobster role. For drinks, I had a blueberry lemon drop ( mhhmm ). We were able to watch all the boats go by with a gorgeous sunset!

    Highly recommend! Every dish was beautifully and thoughtfully prepared and absolutely delicious. We appreciated the considerable care the management team took with our son’s food allergies. We will definitely be back!

    The Boat House is always an enjoyable spot to dine whether for lunch, cocktails or dinner it’s hard to go wrong here. The wait staff is always good if not great, never hovering always responsive to any question or request. The staff at the podium is just OK. We arrived 15 min early and had requested a window seat as we were celebrating an Anniversary. The first attempt was to just seat us, when I mentioned that our reservation requested a window seat the response was they could seat us just one row away from the windows…I asked how long the wait might be for a window and was given an estimate of 30 min. Which is fine so we took a seat at the bar, enjoyed a couple of perfectly made drinks by their excellent bar staff. Our table was ready in about 20 min which was great. To me a better first response would have been we can seat you now near the windows or you can wait till your table is ready…Lunch was very good appetizer and meal timed perfectly and our waitress even surprised us with a delicious Anniversary desert. Other than the small hiccup it was a wonderful Anniversary lunch.
