    The Carriage House never disappoints. The food is always amazing (you must try the duck)…the menu changes occasionally and the new dishes are inventive and delicious. The drinks are also very good and imaginative. The service is always wonderful (very friendly and professional) and the ambiance is sophisticated and charming at the same time. And you can’t beat the location.. right across the street from beautiful Jenness Beach. I highly recommend this restaurant!

    Parker House rolls, amazing, best ever. Veal schnitzel tender, flavorful and unique. Cod, excellent. Carrot cake not as expected, not traditional. The description on the menu should be modified to more accurately describe the cake, ginger ice cream creamy but too many flavors with the cake, too much ginger. Wouldn’t order a second time. Good wine and good service.

    We loved our experience at the Carriage House, the owners, RJ and James are wonderful people and have created a menu that will meet any diners desires and they add seasonal dishes and specials to keep the menu fresh. The bartenders and servers are knowledgeable and friendly.
