Best Seafood Restaurants in Dumbarton

When I think of Carytown the first place that comes to mind is Can Can Brasserie. And like fine wine, it’s gotten better with age. From arrival to check we were made to feel like VIP. The drinks top tier, an extensive champagne list including vintages from 2000 and beyond. Even when ordering bread the food is always plated beautifully and creates an atmosphere all on its own. For brunch do the Quiche Du Jour and French Toast. And for Dinner you have to do the Scallops. Non-negotiable on that. They are life changing.

We ate here for a birthday celebration and it was perfect. We were seated right away and had a great table. Our waitress was wonderful and the service was great. The restaurant has an extensive wine list and we enjoyed our wine selections very much. They brought bread to the table which was warm and wonderful. They have a large menu with a lot of great choices, along with nightly specials. We all loved the calamari appetizer which had a very light but flavorful breading and both sauces - red and white were excellent for dipping. My son had the pasta special and it was fabulous. My husband had a scallop dish and the scallops were large and there were many of them. I had a vodka penne pasta and added shrimp to it and again the shrimp were large and plentiful. My other son had pizza and loved it. They had desserts available, but we skipped dessert as we had a birthday cake waiting for us at home, and quite honestly we were all stuffed from our food. Three of the four of us left with leftovers which were enough for a second meal today. The bill was reasonable and we would recommend dining here and will return!

Staff was friendly and prompt, they went above and beyond making sure we had everything we needed. The rockfish and salmon entrees were perfectly cooked and the cocktails were phenomenal. The space was quiet and inviting, and never felt like we had to talk over the room ambience or other patrons. Would highly recommend to anyone.

Our waiter was wonderful. The ambience, the food, was impeccable. I had shrimp & grits which tasted as authentic as a restaurant i went to in South Carolina. My spouse had filet mignon both potatoes& veggies. Steak was cooked to perfection. Will definitely return!

This was our first visit, and it not only met but exceeded the high expectations I had based on friends who say this is their favorite restaurant. The host and hostess were friendly; bar scene looked lively and fun; our waiter was personable, attentive, and took great care of us; and the food was exceptional. We will definitely be returning and hopefully often!
