About the restaurant
Pisces Restaurant features coastal cooking with a Mediterranean flair. Our menu is a celebration of all things seasonal featuring mostly Cape Cod's native seafood as well as a variety of non seafood options. This is a Chef owned restaurant that is well know for its light fresh cooking style and a menu that changes often. Favorite dishes include sautéed calamari, lobster corn chowder, risotto, seared rare tuna, cornmeal crusted cod and a killer ribeye steak! Warm rosemary foccacia and famous desserts are made in house. Our carefully selected wine list is designed to compliment our cuisine and offers over 20 wines by the glass, craft and local beers as well as classic and creative cocktails. Local art is carefully displayed throughout the cozy dining room where there is an intimate 7 seat bar. Pisces is open seasonally, so plan to stop in between April and Columbus Day weekend. Reservations are highly recommended and limited as many guests book well in advance.

Loved everything about our experience at Pisces, it was our first time which is surprising because apparently the restaurants been around for 30 years. Met the chef/owner who was lovely and were made aware of several servers who had been there for 20+ years, which was impressive. All the food was lovely, but a shout out to the lemon Parmesan salad, the tuna steak, and we can’t forget the Keylime pie! We will be back!

We were searching for a restaurant with outdoor seating and stumbled upon a gem. The waitress was incredibly warm and attentive—she couldn’t have been more welcoming. We kicked things off with a lightly fried calamari in a lemon pickled pepper aioli sauce that was absolutely amazing. From there, we may have gone a little overboard on the food, but it was well worth it! We tried the stuffed grape leaves, Greek sausage with honey mustard sauce and chips, and a large pork skewer served with tzatziki, warm pita, and Greek fries. Every dish was beautifully prepared and bursting with flavor. Well worth a visit and we will return but maybe order a little less food.
