“This little place is very cozy. It's in an historic town that gets extremely busy in the summer. Our waitress was very friendly and efficient. There's beautiful artwork on the walls that are available for purchase. It has a bar but we sat at a table. There was a fireplace going. I ordered the Bulgogi lettuce wraps which is Korean style beef with Sriracha mayo as an appetizer, and the baked haddock with rice and vegetables for the main course. For dessert, I ordered the gingerbread pudding cake. The appetizer was fantastic. I forgot to take a picture before diving in. The haddock was cooked to perfection as well as the green beans. Unfortunately, I was served mashed potatoes with it instead of rice. The potatoes were very good but I thought it was a weird thing to serve with the fish. I wasn't a fan of the gingerbread pudding cake and wished I had gotten the spice cake instead. It was served with a sauce that made the texture of the cake too wet. All in all, I enjoyed my meal very much. It was a nice, relaxing atmosphere and we were able to sit and chat to kill time before we proceeded to a program at the Le Grua Center down the road.Parking: This town is very old and the streets are extremely narrow. We parked down the street and walked a couple blocks to the restaurant. We probably could have parked by the restaurant but opted to walk.“
“Many restaurants will charge high prices to create an aura of quality and fine dining, only to disappoint when it comes down to eating. Shipwright's Daughter is not that place. The prices are on the high side but wow, do they deliver. Four adults, four very different entrees and everyone left with all smiles. My beef strip loin was cooked perfectly and everything that accompanied it was tasty. Some signature cocktails were discounted for the 5 - 6 pm happy hour and were, again, delicious. Our server was friendly and attentive without overtaking the conversation. If your taste buds deserve a holiday this place is worth a visit.“
“This was our time eating at the Tin Peddler and we were very impressed. For our dinner date, the food, the service and the atmosphere were all great. The noise level was a bit too high, but everyone seemed to be enjoying themselves, so I guess that's good. Definitely will be back.“
“Enjoyed an outstanding dining experience at Ella's.We started with foie gras club and fried hen of the woods mushroom appetizers. The flavors were delicious. The foie gras club had a great crunch with tomato jam, bacon and seared foie gras.It was out of this world. The fried hen mushrooms with ricotta and goat cheese were a fungi experience.Our server, Chris, was on the mark all night, her care in service was over the top but not overbearing. Her enthusiasm for this chef and restaurant was incredible.We chose the duck duo, a duck leg confit and a seared duck breast, while my partner had the grilled halibut special with asparagus tips, peas, and the fluffiest spinach gnocchis. The piece de resistance was chunks of lobster included with this meal. The flavors in both were heavenly. The thyme as jus with the duck was simply delish. The duck confit was perfectly prepared and a joy to eat, crunch by crunch. The seared duck breast cooked med-rare had a great crispness cap and still cooked to the right temp and married well with the sauce. Even the mashed potatoes elevated their taste to go with the duo dish. We somehow had room to have a dessert made in house, a cake with almond flour, candied pistachios, raspberries and vanilla gelato. Well made expresso and mochachino added to the fine dessert offering. This evening's meal will be something that I will always remember. Ella's put out a stunning dining experience. My thanks to the chef-owner Jeanie Roland and her incredible staff for a remarkable and memorable dining experience. I look forward to visiting again, and trying some other items from their varied menu.“
“Had a wonderful lunch, including Oysters Rockefeller and an absolutely amazing mussel preparation with lime, coconut lemongrass broth and chili, paired with sourdough bread (have to with mussels). Thanks to the bartender who whipped up a delicious Paper Plane cocktail, which made it feel like a warm summer day even though it was 40 degrees and torrential rainy outside.“
“This place has it all! Atmosphere, view, and exquisite food. Check it out if you're in the area and make a special trip if you aren't. Owl & Dove is a special spot.We're vegan and they had several vegan dishes on the menu, with others that could easily be made vegan. All the non-vegan dishes coming out of the kitchen also looked amazing! They've got something for everybody at Owl & Dove.Dietary restrictions: We are vegan and they had vegan options right on the menu, along with several other dishes that could easily be made vegan. The non-vegan dishes coming out of the kitchen looked amazing, too!“
“So much fun even if you are a terrible bowler. Went with a group for a fundraiser. Pitchers of beer, mixed drinks, and food available at the lanes. Great for parties. Connected sports bar with bar food and tons of tvs to watch any sport you wish. Enjoyed the nachos and quesadillas. Fun time!!“
“I have gone to Sam's shack for years ...always enjoyed the sun and the parking attendant was always a hoot. We have since became friends. They have a wonderful lifeguard on duty at all times throughout the week. Good food at the shack . Breakfast and lunch or snacks ?. Plenty of parking also $20Parking: Very good parking area. Plenty of parking also“
“We had an awesome experience we met the new manager Lindsay, She was so friendly and welcoming. We loved our food. My friend got boneless chicken breast wrapped in lettuce, I got the buffalo chicken sandwich And we got truffle fries on the side. They also sell fair trade certified Maine root. Certified organic root beer. We will definitely come back and try this again. We are coming from Massachusettes. I get five stars for everything. Also I wanted to add the place is so clean and the girl cooking in the back Nelly looks like she actually likes her job ?“
“Overlooked gem of a place. Convenient downtown location, overlooking the Pawcatuck River. Great atmosphere, interesting drinks, attentive service. Creative and delicious dishes. Will return.Parking: A few spaces directly in front of restaurant. Hidden from street view—need to come down driveway. Street parking and public lots nearby.“
“Once again, the COAST experience pleased us to no end. The “Ellen and Eli” wine dinner was spectacular! And we so enjoy the Coast staff! I hesitate to mention particular people, as everyone is wonderful. Zach and Sam were standouts. Thank you again.....hope to see you at the next wine event. ?“
“Food was very good . Our waitress Alicia was excellent. She was efficient and friendly.Our side came out when we were almost done eating . ( not the end of the world)but they didn't charge us which was nice. Overall, a good experience.“
“Great place and Biker Friendly! 10/10!My waitress was Rachel D. She was very friendly and was quick to get my order as well as get my order to me.I had the chicken and bacon quesadillas with some ranch dip… very good and very filling especially considering it’s technically an appetizer in of it self. Previously, I had a bacon cheeseburger and it was damn well made too. It’s fairly cheap as far as food in Groton goes so I would $100% recommend this place!Parking: Lots of places to park and it has a few spots specifically for Motorcycles in front too!“
“The ambience is amazing here. Couple of things to point out that we thought are noteworthy. I had a side dish of asparagus that was such a small portion. Just was hard to believe that was typical. Also, at times the service was a bit confusing. We would be asked something that another server (multiple ) had already taken care of. Maybe a bit more communication on there end could help. This occurred 3 or 4 times. Overall we enjoyed!“
“One of our favorite restaurants. Have been here upwards of 20 times or more and have never had a dish or cocktail we haven’t enjoyed. The best burger in town for sure and their sourdough is out of this world delicious. The menu changes often with a few staples so you’re never bored and can always try something new. Very fresh, always.Extremely talented team!“
