    Fried Haddock
    Amanda T.

    Our first stop on our roadtrip to Rhode Island for a Costal Weekend. This is a local watering hole, where you can slow down and have a drink while enjoying the sea breeze. A great place to relax after being in the car a few hours. But it gets busy after 7:00 pm and the parking lot was full. The fried haddock tasted fresh with a light breading. The focus was on the fish. I prefer a crispier beer battered breading. The clam chowder left me disappointed, I prefer a prefer a thicker chowder with more savory flavors. This felt like more of a soup. This was my first time ordering clam cakes. They were very similar to hush puppies. The service was an average experience. Overall felt ok, not super impressed but not bad either.

    Baked fish  and fish and chips

    Awesome place,wonderful service, fantastic food, huge serving at great prices. Great casual dining, we go a couple times a month. The best stop for lunch, dinner also the dessert is amazing.

    Lobster roll and Cole slaw.

    Amazing food and service. Oysters were great and only $1 a shuck (before 4:00). Hard to find that nowadays. Steamers and lobster rolls were on point as well. Love this place!

    Lobster Salad Roll and Fish & Chips

    *Cap'n Jack has two locations next to each other* This place - The Salt Marsh Pub & Raw Bar - was so underrated. Went there last minute based off their decent google reviews and couldn't be happier. Sat outside with a beautiful view, staff was attentive and friendly, beer was great, and food was delicious! We'd go back when we're in town again. Highly recommend:)

    Came here at 11 am on a Saturday right at opening. Staff were ready to welcome us in. We opted to sit outdoors which was a patio overlooking a salt marsh. The server was friendly and made sure that we were doing well, she even came to talk to us about the bunnies and the birds that hang out in the area. Got the chowder and clam cakes. Chowder definitely had a lot of seafood and potatoes in it. Clam cakes are like big pieces of fried bread with clam in it. I've never had it before and was pleasantly surprised by the crispy exterior and soft chewy interior. It was a little too heavy for me so I only finished one cake. Overall, I loved the atmosphere of the restaurant.

    Fresh perfectly cooked seafood, delicious cocktails and wonderful attentive friendly servers! Nancy, our server, was the best! She helped with our menu selection and was great. The Seafood Cioppino was tasty and had generous portions of shrimp, mussels, clams and scallops in a light tomato broth over pasta. The fish and chips special was so good, as was the plump clam cakes and the chowder was great. The view of the salt marsh at sunset was so pretty. We absolutely can't wait to visit soon!

    The lobster roll, clam chowder and stuffies were great. I have eaten there twice now and would definitely go back.

    Baked scrod was tasty, but the desserts stole the show. Try the chocolate chip with cookie dough cupcake!

    In my opinion the food was certainly not fresh and possibly bad. Got the whole bellies and couldn't eat more than two.

    We are here from out of town. From a faraway place where a majority of the population would prefer…read moreto have everyone who speaks Spanish (that they don't personally know) thrown into concentration camps simply for existing, so the choices of this style of food there are thin, at best. There are one or two restaurants that are passable for the area and would probably be a solid 3-3.5 out of 5. This place is a 5 out of 5. This place could be a 6 out of 5 compared to my local restaurants. And believe me, I took nearly two years of Spanish in high school, so I know a thing or two about a thing or two. I ordered fish tacos and my wife ordered the enchiladas verde (green) as takeout. When I got to the restaurant, I was greeted by three (tres) lads whereby one of them promptly handed me my order. When I pulled the food out of the bag back at the hotel, I was greeted with an absolute masterpiece of culinary art, the fish tacos. The red cabbage slaw covering the tacos, mixed with the sauce was beautiful (bonita) and vibrant. The enchiladas verde looked just as good, but were less vibrant in presentation. It seemed like the chefs cared about the product they were serving to their customers. The rice that came with the enchiladas had a great consistency and not dry at all - I can't stand dry rice. My wife said the enchiladas themselves were flavorful and seasoned very well and not the "suburban white lady" kind of seasoning. However, she doesn't write the reviews - I do - so I will talk about the fish tacos. There were three of them and I got them made with the corn tortillas (tortillas). Any fish taco I have ever had has always been small nuggets of fish smattered through the taco. These bad boys were absolute units where the entire bottom of the taco was one large fried piece of haddock, covered in a somewhat tangy sauce, and topped with red cabbage. The sauce and red cabbage made for a bit of a messy meal, so be prepared to get your hands dirty if you order this. I would not recommend getting these (or the enchiladas) if you had to drive down US Route 1 at the apparent local speed limit of 75 miles per hour and expected to just chow on some tacos while doing so. By the way,, what's with that, RI drivers? It's not the Autobahn. I had a RideOn bus 5 ft from my bumper while doing 70 on there yesterday. Calm down (or should I say 'clam down', amirite?). Anyway, this food was very good and next time I am in town, I would like to go there and sit down to eat while trying to ignore the fact that half the people around me here sound like Peter Griffin.

    The second you walk in the door, you feel like you're in some chic city. The decor is so awesome so…read moremany vibrant colors and greenery. The staff was welcome and courteous. I ordered the fish tacos you can have them fried or grilled. They were delicious. Also had the birds tacos also delicious. We also ordered their basic guacamole. You can get it with ribeye or street corn. I was a little disappointed, the guacamole it was very lackluster no seasoning or anything in it just avocado with lemon don't get me wrong. It was delicious but it definitely was missing a little something next time. I'll definitely try it with the street corn. The margaritas were in my opinion perfectly made. I can see why this place is such a big hit. Can't wait to go back.
