Restaurants near Center for Wooden Boats

You have to know what you are looking for or use GPS to find the Pink Door. It has a speakeasy feel to it. Loved the ambiance and everything about the place. We ate in the lounge where the entertainment was, which was great. For a more formal experience try the dining room at the back. It has the views. The Pink Door offers a wonderful evening of food and entertainment. Our server Dina was great.

We found re:public online looking for a restaurant not far from our hotel. We found parking be an issue but we were able to find a place to park right away. The food was excellent! We started with the Manila clams with a saffron butter broth that was delicious. My wife had the mushroom pasta with a mushroom cream sauce and I had the pork chop with grits and chard. Both were outstanding but my wife thought the sauce was a little sweet. My pork chop was everything I expected thick and juicy, and both dishes came out hot! I’m embarrassed but I don’t remember our server’s name and she told us. She was great, very attentive and very accommodating, she made a fresh pot of coffee for us. Overall it was a great experience and I will go back the next time we’re in the city.

The LUNCH MENU prices and portions were comparable and worth the money. The Fettuchini Alfredo and the Lasagna were great! Coffee was like warm and had to request a fresh cup each time I needed a refill Our waiter/bar tender/buser RUSHED us as we both have never been to a Bucca de Beppo before. The Welcome Host, white female, was not engaging with the customers as we entered the establishment.

We come here often and love the steak!!!!!! A little pricey but steaks are worth it. Didn’t like the clam chowder (too thick and didn’t taste like clam chowder). Scallops were so salty ( they didn’t charge us for that). Wedge salad was perfect! Mashed potato is to die for. Cocktails were yummy. Cheese curds are the overall winner in appetizers section! Service is always above and beyond. Dish chocolate chip and banana pudding were a nice end to the dinner.

Food was delicious. Was disappointed to learn halibut was not available for the sandwich I have come to love. Service was great!
