Hans Nielsen the general manager of The Chart House is one of the best there is. I had my wedding there in 1997 and he made it perfect. We came in for dinner last night (27 years later) and the food, ambience and service was AMAZING! Our waiter who was from Belgum was super attentive and always smiling. The Ahi Tuna was THE GREATEST QUALITY OF TUNA I HAVE WVER HAD!! The lobster tails were the way a lobster tail should taste. The filet could not have been better. The experience was a 5 Star plus. It was an evening that far superceded my expectations. The view of the city is remarkable! If you want an out of this world experience go immediately to The Chart House in Weehawkin and please tell Hans that Danielle Bennett sent you 😃

We had a terrific time! The service was excellent without being over the top. Food was very good. Drinks were well crafted. My pork chop was a little salty but my companion’s steak and lobster were excellent. The band was a nice for background music. We will be back!!

We had a reservation at 7PM, due to bad weather conditions, the restaurant contacted me. We were able to move the reservation to 5PM. Shortly after we arrived the sky cleared up and we got an amazing view! The servers were all kind and the food tasted really good! It was a special experience!
