   Had a reservation and arrived on time. Host had no smile and seemed unhappy. Not sure if he is the manager but he made no attempt to be friendly to anyone he seated. The restaurant was not crowded but we had to wait to be seated. Overheard servers apologizing to other guests for the wait and thanking them for their patience. Long wait to get drinks. Extra long wait for food. Ordered coffees at end of meal and they arrived cold. Saw other customers leave without eating after waiting for service. Incredible shame because the view is nice. Servers were kind and seemed embarrassed.

   Thank you for bringing this to our attention, it was an unfortunate combination of being short staffed and very busy. We will do a better job in future.

   This is our go to place. Always great views and good food. Service has changed somewhat, no extra steps for a birthday celebration...had to get our own service, just left in a stack at the corner of the table, no bread (although all other diners around us received), rush to take away plates. None of this will, of course, will keep us from coming back or recommending to others...just saying.

   The setting, the view is spectacular. Try going at sunset. Order an app, Split the ribeye- definitely enough for 2. Very well prepared steak. Meaty, tasty crab cakes.

   Food and atmosphere were great. The noise level was a little bit high, but still able to hold a conversation. Our waiter disappeared, and our service was completed by the manager; no explantion why?

   Extremely slow and spotty service from start to finish. Ordered drinks and had to ask server twice to please bring them. My Mojito was the worst I have ever had, probably sat before picked up and ice diluted it! Ordered two appetizers and one came out in about 10 minutes. Had to remind server to please bring the second one. Took another 5 minutes. Ordered wine and another drink (not a mojito this time) and asked they be served with dinner. When dinner finally came, no drinks. Had to ask twice to please bring them. We were 1/3 through our meal before drinks arrived. The Steak and Lobster for two was excellent, but overall a horrible almost $200.00 experience. We eat at Sea Venture probably 6 times a year, and in the past they always exceeded our expectations. NOT THIS TIME!!!

    Terrific staff with friendly service. Accommodated our party of 6 changing to 8 very nicely. Everyone’s food was delicious as well as being plated quite beautifully. Salads, seafood dishes, and steaks plus desserts and after dinner cocktails were all top notch.

    Making us feel like we are home...that is what the staff at Sea Venture does for us. Their consistently high level of service, food quality and ambience makes this restaurant a place we frequent with out of town guests, for special occasions, and just when we need to feel special. I often recommend this restaurant to everyone I know. I thank the manager for doing such a great job with this restaurant and staff.

    From our excellent and attentive server, Jim, to the food and drinks we ordered, everything was great. Our appetizer (brussels sprouts) and mains arrived hot and perfectly cooked. The restaurant fronts the beach and it seems as if you are dining at sea. The sunset was an added bonus.
