    Awesome location right on the water. The view and location is definitely 5 stars however the food was not. I got the quinoa salad and added chicken (for $9) and only received 3 small slabs of blackened chicken. Food was tasty, just disappointed about the size given the price. The Caesar salad was delicious but only came with one broccolini that was cold. Drinks were great and refreshing. Service was quite slow at times and our food took a while to come out despite it being a slower lunch rush. Overall, it's a fantastic spot for just drinks on the water!

    The food was spectacular !!! A must when coming to RI . We started with a mushroom ravioli that was so good that we forgot to take a picture . Drinks were great ! Had a NA watermelon froze w lemon that was great . My dish was the halibut but I added 3 blackened shrimp and I must say it was one of the best meals ever . We also ordered a swordfish dinner and the scallop dinner and everything was amazing including the bread :) The service was top notch and the ambiance was first class we sat inside but outside seating was available.

    Coast Guard House is a must-stop for us in Narragansett! The lobster tamale is a unique and delicious was to eat lobster, it was on our minds from our first visit four years ago. We had a nice view of the water from our table, and the service was outstanding, especially with the dessert recommendation!

    Came here on a weekend summer evening, and the wait was over an hour so recommend getting a reservation ahead of time. Try to get a reservation at the Patio if you can, seating is right next to the ocean. Servers were nice and worked hard to get us a walk in seating as soon as they could. We sat at the top bar upstairs, which also has a great view. I feel like it's the restaurant with the best views in Narragansett. Ordered the swordfish with couscous and miso salmon with rice noodles, both were delicious and had unique flavors.

    Calamari

    Unfortunately the rain prevented us from sitting outside. The ocean waves lapping at the shore while we eat is part of the allure of this place. Inside was very noisy and it made conversation hard. We shared the calamari which was a combination of spirals and tentacles. Not the best or the worst I have had. I would say that about all the food. The fish and chips were fresh but not overly flavorful. Kara, our waitress, was very friendly and made the dinner a pleasurable experience . It was my friend's birthday and mine was yesterday but none of the desserts sounded that appealing. The restaurant was packed so it apparently has a following! I don't need to come back

    The country road

    Rating: 4.3 Came to the place for lunch with family and friends. We reserved an outside tent for the lunch. It's a nice restaurant located right by the ocean in Narraganset. Complimentary valet parking available along with street parking. Once we got there we were directed to the outside tent seatings. Looks like they have a theme for each one and one we were at was winter themed. Inside was nice and cozy and was quite warm. Once we got seated we looked at the menu and placed order for some drinks and appetizers. We got some oysters and prime rib cheese egg rolls. They were both delicious. Oysters were fresh. I got a non alcoholic drink the country road which was fruity and refreshing. I ended up getting lobster mac and cheese. Lots of lobster meat and cheesy macaronis with bread crumb was tasty. Service was excellent and waiter was very attentive and came to check in multiple times. Overall it's a nice spot for nicer meal. Price is on the higher side but food was pretty good. Outside seating was $100 per group and for 3 hours so not too bad. Downside was that ventilation was poor so it was pretty hot inside and only way to cool down was to keep the door propped open but it was windy day so door kept banging and the next group was doing the same thing. Probably a good idea to put a window on the door or something. Some of the tables were also pretty wobbly which was a but annoying.

    The food! The service! The views! If you're in Rhode Island you must come here. Everything was excellent!

    Banana bread pudding

    I was a little hesitant about trying this place out based on mixed reviews... I'm glad I don't listen to the bad ones because I would have missed out on an amazing experience. We booked an igloo because I get social anxiety and the ambiance in there is so what you make of it and because I was there with my family, it was fun! our waiter, Nicholas, was by far the best waiter we have ever had! What tops this whole experience is that the food was actually delicious! Drinks and desserts were also really good! It's only a 15-20 minute drive from our house so that's a plus! I highly recommend you book an igloo (cold months) or ocean/outside seating bc the sound of the waves is so relaxing while enjoying good food and drinks! I hope that you have the same amazing experience that my family and I had and I'm glad my friend Heidi recommended this place!

    Simply Grilled swordfish

    Lovely waiters and service. Yummy Shirley temples. Good prices on simply grilled menu. Hot food and fresh fish. Sunset farm burger massive patty! Pasta seasoning on the seafood special was bland. Desserts were epic! Loved the butterscotch ball. Ocean view.

    GF Mac and cheese
    Meg M.

    The meal won't be cheap, but it will be super good! We went for a girls night and everyone loved their dinner. My best friend has a gluten allergy and she was blown away by their mac n cheese. They had a bunch of options for her to pick from which was a real nice plus. Wine was good. They had lots of cocktails and mocktails in addition to their wine list. The bread was amazing too! My friends love the dessert that they split. All and all everyone was satisfied. Our wait staff was amazing. Our head waitress was witty and super helpful. Her assistant was working her first night and we honestly had no clue until she told us. She was wonderful! I would come back again for a nice date night or celebratory event!

    Amazing service delish food and epic view we had a wonderful waitress too so made for a lovely meal this is a must try place

    Halibut - yellow sauce did not look appetizing but it tasted good. Under the fish was potato with cheese.

    Nice place use to be a coast guard station a long time ago according to the hostess. Ate out on patio. Was a bit warm in August but the ocean breeze helped. Enjoyed the halibut and Captains daughter beer. Also enjoyed the banana bread pudding.

    Ask the Community - Coast Guard House

    Do u need a reservation?

    Yes, you need a reservation. Especially for dinner. This restaurant is very popular.

    What id the patio like for evening dining? Trying to decide where to do the reservation

    If you mean the outdoor restaurant dining at Coast Guard House, it is excellent if the weather is excellent. Right on the sea, with great food. Wonderful

    Is the reserved outdoor seating at the Coast Guard House shaded?

    They have large sails and umbrellas but there are areas the sun shines through. Overall, an excellent experience

    What are the differences between the Main Dining Room and the Anchor Room?

    The Anchor Room has unobstructed views of the ocean through large windows. It's great for big party occasions up to 100 people.

    Do they have their own parking lot?

    They do, but it’s valet only. There is a lot of street parking directly outside of the restaurant in both directions. When we went, it was really easy to find a street spot

    Is there a kids menu?

    Yes, there is kids menu. Nothing fancy, just the basic!

    Can you wear jeans?

    Yes, the only dress code requirements are no tank tops or bathing suits.

    I don't see fish and chips on their menu on the website but it's listed on previous menus, has anyone ordered this recently?

    I went in the beginning of July and they offered it as a special of the day.

    Do they have a kids menu? I didn't see one on their website.

    Yes. A generous portion of chicken tenders, grilled cheese, a hot dog and kids pasta.

    Is it a dog friendly place?

    No dogs.

    Should you make reservations on a weeknight?

    I always reserve a table even in the off-season, especially if you want to eat in the main/formal dining area. At the height of the summer season, it's pretty much de rigueur.

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.
