    We were seated on time at our preferred table. The service was attentive and helpful. And the swordfish was excellent. We were also treated to a complimentary desert on our anniversary.

    Took my 7 and 9 year olds for dinner. One ordered kids steak and the other kids salmon. They loved their meals and were treated well.

    We asked for a window view table for our 44th anniversary, we didn’t get that! We were one row back, not bad for a beautiful sunset! Two other couples, who didn’t make a window table request complained about their table that was one row back and they got moved! The asparagus was pretty sad looking, not very flavorful!

    We were greeted nicely as we entered and seated immediately at a window seat overlooking the beach. All tables and booths have a direct view of the ocean. Our server was cordial and helpful. The food was delicious! The presentation was lacking a bit but the volume of food and the flavors were excellent. Since it was early, 5:30, the bar was busy and noisy which made conversations more difficult but within an hour it was more calm. I would definitely enjoy going there again.

    It’s a hidden gem! We were a bit confused on the location but found it! It was our wedding anniversary and we were pleasantly surprised! The service was great. Shane was very accommodating. We were able to sit by a window & see the ocean. Beautiful day! The food was delicious. We will definitely be returning to the Sea Venture!

    Our first time dining here. We will definitely be back! The food was delicious and reasonably priced for the quality and serving sizes!! The serving sizes are really generous- the entrees were enough for two people to share. I had the Cesar salad (not huge but a decent portion) and my husband had the clam chowder. Both were delicious! I had the scallops and pork belly appetizer as my entree which was just the right size. My husband had the macadamia halibut. His dish was definitely shareable!! The service was prompt and friends. We sat outside which was perfect- much quieter than inside

    We celebrated our 50th wedding anniversary by dining at Sea Venture and could not have chosen a better option. The service was excellent as was the food. Watching the ocean waves as we dined was a plus. Our server, Chris, was outstanding.
