So...haven't been in a while but eating with 3 others and every dish was really good. People are so nice there. This is off season and was so happy it was open. Will definitely go back. Off season dinner you miss the beautiful water views but everything else was great!

I ate there last night for the first time with my son. We shared the prosciutto and cheese board. It was a very generous portion with green olives and caponata that was a perfect blend. I then enjoyed the bronzini. It was cooked to perfection. It came with a well seasoned arugula salad with cucumber and red peppers. Again, there was so much I had to take it home. I couldn't resist the creamy polenta; it was delicious, and yes, I'll be enjoying it again today. My son ordered pasta with bolognese sauce with a generous scoop of ricotta on top. It was excellent and plentiful. He also had to take his home. We were too full for dessert, but enjoyed a well presented and tasty cappuccino. My mom loved the Channel Marker... now I know why.

I'm giving this place a 3, which could easily have been a 4+. I've been here twice now. The first time was pretty good overall. But on the slow side. Very oddly, to use the restroom, you must leave the restaurant and enter through the parking lot. But we were willing to overlook this. Our second visit, undid any of the good from our first visit. We had a reservation and we're seated promptly. And then began a 24 minute wait until a server so much as acknowledged us, as I was standing to go inside to complain. Our drinks came pretty quickly and we placed our order. The food, as last time was good. Calamari were fresh and not chewy. Well seasoned and cooked. Entrees as well we're good, but I can't remember what I ate if that's any indication. Nothing special, but no complaints. Drink refills were non existent. Which our server also became as we began to wait again for our check. We could have walked out, had the valet being our car and probably been half way home before they even realized we'd left. I'll reluctantly give this a 3rd chance as so far the score is 1-1, but the last experience has definitely left a bad taste

Had no expectations especially since it took what seemed over a year to finally get a reservation. It was well worth the wait…. They have YUGE portions for the price, good food, friendly service with a great waterside view and BYOB.Open year around on weekends which is also a plus.

We had a 7:15 reservation, got apps quickly but our dinner did not come out until 9:30. Food was good but not worth the wait.

This place is a very nice restaurant with a great bay view. I had made reservations outside and was told of it rained they would be canceled. When we got there is was drizzling a little bit it wasn't horrible the outside some tables are only partially covered. So consider that when making a reservation. Leslie our waitress was extreme friendly and helpful with our decisions. We got the calamari to start which I never photographed. Everyone said it was great too. For dinner we got 2 Zuppa di pecse, the channel marker risotto and the linguini and clams. For dessert we got the pistachio cheese cake, the regular cheesecake and this chocolate and vanilla sponge cake with cherries. Everything was excellent and came out quickly too And I forgot it's BYOB!!!

Fantastic quality food, best service, amazing water views!
Went to dinner here sat down and waited over 1 hour for 2 dishes of pasta. No bread or water was ever served. Waiter was in a real FOUL mood as well. Food finally arrived and it was very bland but that wasn't the issue. Staff was extremely rude, one of the girls did try and apologize for our waiter said he was "having a bad day". So I guess he was able to ruin our experience there. Will not be returning and will tell friends to avoid like the plauge. Mangement should be aware of who is representing their restaurant because they will sink it into the ground with poor attitudes towards the people giving them money.

Went to dinner with my family there, for my birthday food was not OK person that waited on the table did not remove dishes asked us to move dishes so he could put dishes down. Food was oily, wet risotto was disgusting. I don't know how they called risotto when I was sitting in the oil, just not what it used to be and they want to charge you exorbitant prices and give you inferior service and food. place sucks never go back.

third and final time to eat at this rude and nasty restaurant. had reservations 2 days in advance. upon arrival, the hostess wanted to seat us in the rain. the servers were wringing out towels in an attempt to dry our seats. the hostess and staff could care less that we didnt want to sit in the rain. "too bad" was the attitude. shame shame shamei had to post one star to share the post....but would give the place minus 1000 stars
Great food by the water
