    Food was so horrible!!! Save your money. The food was high-school cafeteria quality at best. Drinks also horrible! Only positive is the outside patio you can sit and enjoy the view while eating the mediocre food. Huge disappointment.

    Made a reservation for 6 before taking the ferry to Camden for a concert, had a last minute addition taking us to 7 people which the hostess had no trouble accommodating which we appreciated very much. We were seated promptly, our server was very attentive and took our drink and food orders in a timely manner. Our food was all correct and brought out relatively quickly. I felt that the prices were reasonable and the portion sizes and quality of the food were very good- I had the burger it came with fries and it was a pretty large portion for the price. Overall, this is a great spot to grab a meal and some drinks before taking the ferry to Camden for a concert or event. If the weather were nicer the day we were here, it looked like there is also some outdoor seating which would be nice!

    Service is bad , really bad...A family with two kids had to wait over 15 minutes for nachos. While waiting not one waiter tried to make any eye contact. I had to get up and find the host....then we waited another 15 minutes for our main courses to arrive....The food was above average except for the desert. We ordered the triple layer chocolate cake, which was way too stale and dry.

    I made a reservation for 11am, however the restaurant does a switch over from Breakfast to lunch between 11-11:30, not allowing us to order food during that transition. Luckily, we arrived early and selected food from their breakfast buffet. Had we not shown up early we would have had to wait 30 min for service. I’d suggest not allowing for reservations at 11am due to switch over.
