    If you want to treat yourself to a coastal dining experience, this is my go to. The Boat House is beautiful, the portions are hearty, the service is amazing and the food is scrumptious! Only remembered to take one picture as I was taking in allll the ambiance. We ordered scallops over corn and asparagus, cucumber salad, and onion truffle dip with house made chips.

    The food was absolutely delicious, and our waitress was wonderful--so friendly and naturally welcoming. She made my birthday feel extra special, which meant a lot. The ambience was calm and relaxing, perfect for a family dinner. We wished we could've caught the sunset, but the reservations were fully booked. It's such a beautiful spot regardless! My kids really enjoyed their meals too. Portions were generous, so we ended up taking some leftovers home--a great ending to a lovely evening.

    Seafood Scampi

    Loved this place! Everything we ordered was absolutely amazing, but the seafood scampi was the star of the show. Dessert is a must here, the crème brûlée as well as the espresso martinis, which our server recommended, were perfect. Location is also beautiful. Will def be back!

    Well this was a beautiful sunset meal. It was also delicious. We had lobster rolls and drinks. The lobster rolls were perfect. So much lobster, roll was perfectly grilled, and great flavor. The fries were delicious. The service was great. We got to see a beautiful sunset meal

    Delicious!!!! Stopped here on the way to Newport and had an amazing meal. The view was great, service was nice and quick, and the food was perfect. Only have good things to say about this place. Must try!

    Early sunset from our table in the bar.

    Another amazing restaurant from our recent road trip. This restaurant was on the list of top restaurants with amazing views in the NE- and it did not disappoint! Husband had a grilled salmon with a beurre blanc sauce and their spinach side; I had their amazing crab soup along with mussels and a prosecco herb broth. Hubby eats salmon all the time and says it's the best he's ever had anywhere. He couldn't get over the crunchy glaze on top - just kept saying "Oh my God, oh my God!" Our service was excellent and we timed our arrival to the sunset as we had read that it was amazing. Had read that it was amazing. Once again, we were not disappointed!

    Went for our 1 year anniversary and the food here is excellent. The Christmas decorations made the ambiance very nice. The waitress was attentive and answered all of our questions. We would definitely go here again for another special occasion.

    What a beautiful place to dine on a sunny and warm New England day ! The ambiance is stunning and although we did not get outdoor or window seating it was still a very pleasant experience and we strolled the grounds afterwards. Food was quality and delicious!

    Seafood paella
    Tracey H.

    The bread board was a delightful way to start our meal. The swordfish special was fresh and delicious, layered with flavors. The paella was wonderful too. The service was top notch, and the ambiance was so beautiful by the bay! Great wine and drink selection and the dessert OMG! We celebrated our anniversary and at least three of the staff wished us a happy anniversary. Nice touch! Newport Restaurant groups have some amazing restaurants. I've been to most and have never been disappointed. Highly recommended.

    My husband enjoyed a very yummy looking lemon drop martini

    Will you be offering a special menu on Thanksgiving?

    Are dogs allowed?

    We did not see any when we went. There is outside dining, however, if I had to guess I would suggest leaving your dog home.

    I live in Tiverton and my family has spent not hundreds, but thousands of dollars here over the…read moreyears. I often tip generously and once received a nice bottle opener as a thank you. Unfortunately, I was met with an absolutely atrocious attitude from the young lady who served me today. I asked for two whole filets of Arctic Char from the back cooler instead of the two in the front case. Why? Well, the real answer is that it doesn't matter why...I'm the customer paying nearly $60 for fish and if that's what I want, then the correct answer is a smile and a "no problem, let me go get that for you!" Instead, what I got was a look of utter contempt and an "I mean, what's the difference?" sarcastic reply with one palm raised up to emphasize just how ridiculous my request was. When she returned with the fish, I said "just FYI, all that should matter is that I'm the customer (paying top dollar for a premium product), maybe I'm just a bit OCD." Her response, again with that famous Gen-Z contempt, was "I mean, there's no difference, we just brought it (the fish in the case) out, but anyways, I got you your fish." She just didn't get it. The owner overheard everything and chimed in "all of our fish is fresh here, you don't need to worry about that." Yeah, I know that it's a good product, it's why I shop here, but if my unique brain feels better about having it brought out from the back cooler, why should that merit even a drop of bad attitude?! I told the owner, "I just shouldn't have to explain myself," he retorted "you didn't" and I told him "no, actually I did." So basically, I went in looking forward to a nice experience and left feeling really irritated. Sometimes when I'm passing through Westport, I stop by Westport Lobster Company. I always ask for my fish from the back...and all that I ever get is a smile and a "sure, no problem, let me get that for you." I prefer to spend money in my own town, but I'm not going back to this place and neither is my wife...We don't need to be rewarding rudeness with our hard-earned dollars.

    Stopped in to get some oysters for New Year's Eve and I was very happy with the price and quality…read more-- all were fresh and filled with briny liquor--no need for lemon or mignonette--just the essence of the sea. Unfortunately our stay in Tiverton was brief--I love seafood and wish I had the time to try their other offerings. The products on display looked excellent.

    Great local Fall River fish market and seafood takeout joint. Excellent, fresh seafood selection…read more I picked up some nice shrimp, a piece of salmon and a dozen quahogs for chowder, Rhode Island style, my favorite. Friendly, helpful staff . It's likely family run, which are the best. Service was fast and responsive. Ambience? What can I say? It's a fish market. It had fish market ambience in spades. That works for me. They offer a good variety of fried seafood, plus stuffies and crab cakes. There may be a couple of tables to eat at but I don't recall. Only on street parking is available, but they are quick, so you don't need to park for long. I will return every time I visit Fall River on business. Unfortunately, that will not be often enough

    All the food/ seafood items were fresh and tasty. Scallops were especially good. Seafood platter…read morecontains fish, scallops, shrimp and whole clams. My only complaint was that the clams were in the small side any not enough of them. But everything else was if generous proportion. Too many French fries, I just never can eat that many and French fries don't reheat well. Oh, they don't take credit cards or debit cards, only cash. Do come prepared. I didn't but the allowed me to pay next time. Now that's faithful service. I must look trustworthy, which I am. I will happily return with plenty of cash this week and get some more seafood!
