Liz MooreMay 30, 2016Great food, awesome views of fishing boats, but PRICEY! Fish n' chips is $16. Most dinner plates are between $18 and $25. For a family of 3 it came to $82.w/tip!
The sushi is amazing. Chef William makes the best sushi around. Ask to sit at the sushi bar, its my favorite spot.
- Kat LearyDecember 3, 2011Chef William is THE best Sushi Chef ever- really. It's a MUST to do. Try Sushi. You won't regret it ;)
Dory MacielSeptember 17, 2013The scallops were really tasty, tinge of orange... Also Delicious lobster bisque!
Jason HughesApril 19, 2013Nice restaurant good food reasonably priced views of the harbor and fishing fleet
Lindsey NottinghamJanuary 7, 2012The Waterfront Grille DOES NOT ACCEPT TAKE OUT/TO GO ORDERS!!! That is beyond ridiculous. This place is jam packed with people everytime I come. Take out saves them a table AND gets them paid! Ugh!
Julie ChampionJanuary 8, 2016Wasn't impressed the 3 times I've been here. There are much better seafood options in the area to choose from.
Come to the side bar on Fridays and Saturdays. Music and a good atmosphere.
