Main Street was nuts, insane, busy, etc. with the holiday, vacationers, visitors, soccer fans for FIFA, etc. It's the Cape!

Found out it was actually a clothier back in the day, and the stained glass and pews were rescues from a church up in Maine. Nice decor, comfortable. Both lunch and dinner menu served in the early afternoon. High volume, but a few empty tables on a long holiday weekend - Friday. A little off of the beaten path, by that I mean it is not directly on Main Street, but located on Chatham Bars Avenue and down the short street a hundred feet or so and on your left. Cold, bottled San Pellegrino with lime and lemon. Started with the raw bar, well worth the short wait! 18 fat, cold, and briney oysters that were shucked to perfection. The Shrimp Cocktail was great too. She had the Floey's Tuna Sandwich, along with the pasta salad; the tuna had capers mixed in which was a very nice touch! I had the broiled scallops and asparagus; an incredible butter/lemon sauce. Both done exceptionally well. Clean facility, plenty of room, and a wicked nice staff too!

But, the baked stuffed shrimp was only okay, as the orange-citrus sweet sauce was overpowering and off-putting and the forbidden rice was inedible. My friend's pork chop was way overcooked and dry. The service was a big detractor. Our waitress barely engaged with our table of four. She arrived with our main course and noticed all the appetizer plates hadn't been cleared and set our hot dinners on a tray stand while she removed empty plates. Awkward! She never checked on our dinners, and when we were almost finished, she returned to ask if we wanted more wine or another cocktail. Too late! It's unfortunate as some of the food was really good, but at $100/person (with tip), I'd expect better.

Littlenecks cook in about 6 minutes and I am sure the quahog is ready to be popped in the oven on the prep line. 45 minutes later, no apps. Bartender is back in the kitchen 3 times. Still no apps. We get to talking to a local resident next to us who ordered a salad with salmon, and she says that this was her second try at the restaurant as well and no realizes why she never came back. Her salad took about an hour. For a salad... Ok, so now we place dinner. Well we should have just paid at that point and gone to the Squire for a burger cause now we wait another hour for our dinners. Which when they come out are ice cold. Mind you we had baked cod and a pasta dish. Neither of those should take more than 20 minutes to prep. We have now been in this place over 2 hours and didn't get to eat a dinner. What a huge disappointment. Sad thing is this place can get away with bad service because they are attached to an inn in downtown. So people will never stop eating there. But hopefully with a few more bad reviews, they will figure something out or close.

If you know me you know that I speak my mind and am occasionally too blunt. I wouldn't recommend a business if I thought the owners lacked integrity or were unworthy of the community's support. We tried Dogfish Taco Co, Chatham this afternoon. Full disclosure: the owners are friends of ours. They know we would not offer a good review without cause, and that if we were underwhelmed, we would simply say nothing. All this to say we LOVED it! We consider ourselves "foodies." We love flavorful, fresh food. Love our cocktails, and atmosphere is VERY important to us. Dogfish delivered on all of the above. We thoroughly enjoyed our House Margaritas. A little tart and a little sweet. Nice balance of flavors. Next, we were going to try the fish tacos but the Special: BBQ shrimp taco special spoke to us. Oh my word! Nice balance of flavors to say the least. The toppings and shells were fresh, and the perfect amount of heat. We also tried the chips and a side of guacamole. I make a great guacamole. I wouldn't say theirs was better than mine, but dammmmmn, I have some competition! Lol! We were there mid-day so indulged in only one of each item mentioned above, but could have easily had seconds. Cannot wait to go back and that will be soon. Congrats Pete, Heather and staff!!! read more

Food is good but front of house needs a much better system - it's way too slow. 4 people behind the counter, only one of them taking customer orders and dishing proteins. Hands off to two people adding toppings and sauces - they mostly stood around talking to each other and waiting for the first person (who was working hard but it's just bottlenecked on them). Then down to the cashier. Maybe 4 parties in front of me and I was in line at least 15 minutes, maybe 20. And after having to wait in line and pick up my own food, the default tip option on the register is 18%. For food I picked up myself, carried to my own table, and then cleared my own table. Probably won't be going back or will just do takeout - eating there was too much of a hassle. read more
