We hosted our son’s groom’s dinner in the Harbormaster Suite. The venue is breathtaking. Our servers, Meghan and Derek, were super efficient and were very gracious and helpful. Alli made the pre arrangements and was super responsive. The food for a 30 person event was delicious and arrived hot( we chose salmon and a chicken dish). The presentation was also excellent. Highly recommend the venue.

Dining a.

I had been here for dinner before, but wanted to come back during the day so that I could enjoy this gorgeous view. They have happy hour drinks and appetizers available. I recommend making reservations if you’re dining in for lunch or dinner. Since we stopped by for drinks at 4pm on a Monday, we were able to easily grab a bar seat outside.

I absolutely love Boathouse. Each time I’ve gone I’ve received exemplary service. The Sea Ghost is delicious and I’m glad two is the limit because whew you’ll be drunk off more than two. The oysters are fresh. The fried ones aren’t pictured but they are so juicy and keep the texture even though they’re fried. I don’t know which style I like best. Additionally the Oscar was definitely phenomenal. They know how to make a medium steak the right way. The calamari are great too. Additionally, the staff are always great and always have good food recommendations. Jay was so engaged. She has great recommendations and you can tell she likes her job. Terra and Joe also have great customer service. Each staff member was extremely friendly and personable. Assistant Manager Brandy was also so kind. The staff are really a breath of fresh air. Wheelchair accessibility: They have an elevator and a ramp
