Best Restaurants for Special Occasions in Dennis Port

Consistently very good food and service. Definitely has become a go to place for us.

Visited for Valentine's evening (had reservations), and was treated to the usual PERFECT 10+ night out of dining. Our server Katy was terrific. The food was fabulous (of course, we had the oysters, we had the duck/risotto/bok choy and the seared tuna). Truly one of the most consistent, special places around the mid-Cape area.

We booked our reservation in October to ensure we had a table on Valentines Day. Our Server Lauren F did an EXCELLENT job. Food was great and plentiful. The only thing we had an issue with, upstairs where we sat was chilly. We dress appropriately based on the outdoor weather but with sweaters in we were still chilly upstairs. We did mention it but I’m not sure anything was done… Thank you Lauren for a great night!!💝

We celebrated our 50th wedding anniversary last night and as always everything was wonderful! Pate’s is definitely our favorite restaurant! Thanks everyone for making our evening special!

I can't say enough about our Valentine's Day experience. Everything was perfect. Absolutely worth even more than what we paid. It's a beautiful view; being right on the beach. We went right during "golden hour" and all the colors were spectacular. See? I haven't even gotten to the food! Our meal started with a lovely complimentary "toast" for Valentine's Day. Then we had warm bread and a butternut lobster bisque to die for. Then my wife enjoyed a lovely cold meal served in this absolutely beautiful bowl/plate that was so beautiful and original. My "Land and Sea" couldn't have been better. The shrimp was nice and poppy, asparagus crisp, and the sauces were excellent. But the steak, whew, the steak was absolutely incredible. I seriously cannot say enough about it. Cooked perfectly, it just melted in my mouth. I swear it was the best steak I've ever had. Lastly our desserts were beautifully presented to us. I had an eggnog creme brulee, with fruits and cornbread atop. Extraordinary. My wife had a chocolate lava cake with blood orange sherbet. They also went a bit further with hers and even wrote Happy Valentine's Day on the plate in chocolate sauce. Chef's kiss. Lastly the service was impeccable. The door was opened for us right away, and from there it only got better. Our waitress, Kristen, was super friendly, had some great suggestions and made sure that our drinks were never even less than 1/4 full. Why are you still reading? Get going! Seriously, this place is a "must go".
