    As always, service and food were excellent. Noise level was very loud, and we could barely hear the piano players, which was the main reason we visited.

    Excellent meal at the boathouse. We had a reservation and they took us right on time. You have your choice to sit outside or inside. We chose outside which is really nice. Happy we sat outside. The place is huge! Tuna and salmon entree were a big hit. The sizes are not huge so my son needed more food. The dinner rolls are amazing!!!

    The food was very good. We were a party of four and we all enjoyed our meals. The bread they serve is so good, it is more of a sweet dinner roll that is served warm. We started with the firecracker shrimp and the calamari for appetizers which were very good. Then I had the grilled Mahi Mahi sandwich which was very tasty, 2 others in my party had the steak and fries which they both said it was one of the best steaks they’ve had. The last entree was the grilled salmon which was also very good. The service was excellent, the place is extremely busy but that definitely doesn’t affect the quality of service and food. Our reservation was for 8:15 pm but didn’t get seated until 30 plus minutes after our reservation time. This was a minor thing and it was well worth the wait!
