“ Food was outstanding, I had the halibut. Our appetizers of clam chowder and charbroiled oysters were delicious. Our server Matt was on point even though he was extremely busy. Highly recommend going but make reservations. ”
“ The food was very good. My salmon was a little undercooked in the middle but still delicious. The service was amazing our waitress was very kind and very accommodating. also right by the water very pretty place to eat. ”
“ Beautiful view, beautiful space for a nice dinner outside. Service was great, the hostess could use some training on costumer service though. We walked up and were not greeted or asked how many to our party, we had to tell her it was not just two of us, but 4. She seemed annoyed, and it’s just too nice of a place to miss the mark on little details, I think. Food was delicious, drinks were fantastic! Ambiance was very pleasant. Food was served quickly as well, we’d highly recommend the clam chowder! We really enjoyed our visit here. First time in, and would go bank again in visiting town. ”
“ Wonderful place. Good drinks and food. Swordfish was delicious. Servers are very friendly. Jenna behind the main bar is great. There are at least three different bars I saw , She fills your drink to the brim (makes a tasty cosmopolitan my wife says). Valet parking is very helpful. Right on the harbor so lots of boats to look at (not a great view of water however) ”
“ A special Thank you to Water Street Kitchen and Bar. We hosted our sons engagement party in the private function room upstairs. Everything was perfect for our sixty plus guests. Wait staff were attentive and food was cooked to perfection. Our guests raved about everything from appetizers to main course of Steak, salmon and chicken. Cocktails flowed without anyone waiting. We will definitely be back for future private events. ”
“ Dinner and drinks were excellent. The spicy watermelon marg and cauliflower appetizer were standouts. But the best part was the service. Emma made the experience extra special and every recommendation she made was a home run. ”
“ I loved every bit about this place. The food was amazing. We had summer as our waitress She was very very nice. Our view was incredible We were upstairs right below an AC vent and right next to doors that opened out to the water and yes we took full advantage. We had three or four appetizers, each had our own entree, and we had six different desserts that we shared with the table. The time it took for us to be seated was immediate. We went at lunch time. They also offer free valet. Very friendly gentleman. The food arrived in a timely manner. It was spaced out well between our appetizer and entree. I would definitely recommend this place. ”
“ Went here as part of a group of 6 and it was exceptional. The servers paid attention to detail and were quick to take care of everything we needed. The food was also exceptional, with the tempura cauliflower and halibut being particularly noteworthy for me. It’s easy to spend two hours here between the beautiful views and the atmosphere, which included live music for most of the time we were there. ”
