    My wife and I had an amazing dinner at the Rowe's Wharf Sea Grill. From the shrimp cocktail to tuna crudo startes to the Chicken Giannino and Wagyu beef burgers, the food was exceptional. The overall setting, decor, and environment was complemented by exceptional service from the management team of Mary and Jeff right through to the server. There was a level of attentiveness that was superb without being smothering. We WILL come back and recommend anyone in the area get there soon.

    Music is always a great night at Boston Harbor. Food choices this year is decent. Love the sliders and French fries. Bring back the guacamole and chips. Service was very slow last night. She left us and barely asked if we wanted anything else. Otherwise what we did have was as expected for here. Price is high but view is beautiful.
