    Rooftop view from the restaurant.

    The view was great and the food was delicious. We had tuna nachos, salmon, she crab soup, and mahi tacos. We will be back!

    My in-laws recommended The Quay, so we decided to try it while we were in town. We sat on the top floor and the view was incredible. The music playing over the speakers was a little too loud, but overall, it had a good vibe. Our server was excellent - Very attentive and provided recommendations. The food was great. Everything was flavorful and the waffle fries had a perfect crisp to them. The only negative was the iced tea. It tasted so bad, I drank water instead. Overall, we enjoyed our experience and look forward to visiting again in the fall.

    Dining room was closed for reasons the staff wouldn't share; ate instead at the open-air rooftop bar. It's a lovely view of the marsh, but if you're at all afraid of heights, go somewhere else: it's very open and unstable-feeling. They're doing the best they can to fight the heat and humidity, but it just wasn't comfortable. Service was reasonably attentive without hovering. Food was fine: tuna was seared beautifully, but the rest of the taco was mid (dry tortilla, no veggies, just tuna and garnish). For atmosphere, the music was a comfortable yacht rock station, audible but not drowning anyone out. A note about parking: they share a free lot with the neighboring restaurant. This was OK at lunch (when only one is open) but is a zoo at dinnertime. If you're even vaguely close by, I recommend walking/biking/boating?/anything but driving here

    Great place with fantastic views, great food and great service. Beautiful setting on the marsh, go at sunset if you can and sit on the top floor. Food was good across the board from the tuna app to the sandwiches and main entrees.

    We went to the Quay Seafood Grille at Marlin Quay Marina 11/16/2024 and it was great!! I got the Mahi tacos which were sooooooo good. The fish was flakey and tasted great! and don't get me started on the view, you can see both the ocean and the marsh from our table on the rooftop dining part. Also, the service was outstanding and fast. If you are a member of Marlin Quay Marina you can dock and dine which is convienent. If you are in the Surfside, Garden City or Pawlees Island area and want great food and great views I recoment The Quay Seafood Grille

    Food was pretty good. We are on the second floor inside and they were overwhelmed to say the least. One order came out and they didn't offer to fix it or remove it from the menu. Server was short and rude, but again overwhelmed

    Flounder sandwich
    J S.

    Really upsetting that this restaurant doesn't take to-go orders over the phone - that takes a star! Barely anyone dining when we got there, ambiance was new and clean. Nice view but watch out for the open banister, lol, immediate anxiety for the clumsy. Didn't get a kid friendly vibe from this place. Tasty sandwiches but boy were some of them very messy to eat! Flounder was STACKED but lacking seasoning for our preference and the Tartar sauce was too runny, this sandwich literally went everywhere. Fries were a non traditional crinkle that we really enjoyed. Chicken BLT was good, crab cake sandwich was tasty, special was another messy situation, tenders were crispy, sweet potato fries were very soft... And we housed it all! The ranch was delightful, we must say, toddler approved!

    Seared tuna and fried green tomatoes with a crabmeat.

    We went to Quay for a late lunch and what a great find! Our server, Sydney, was so sweet and personable. Neither of us ordered a lunch but we split 3 appetizers. My husband tried a few of their speciality cocktails and gave them all a thumbs up. We ate on their rooftop bar/grill and you couldn't beat the view. Marsh on one side and ocean on the other. Definitely will be returning:)

    Quay stack and some yummy mixed in

    Great place for some food, drink and views. Sit outside and enjoy the view of the marsh or pacific. We loved the stack and also the grouper fingers. Will be back for sure

    Marsh Fingers are phenomenal. Service is good and the view is hard to beat. Get there before 6:00 to get a good view.

    I made reservations for the head boat for a 1/2 day fishing two days prior to the trip. This was…read moreto be my 4 year old's first fishing trip. We showed up this morning 20 minutes early like we were told to do only to be told that their computer had crashed and they lost our reservations! Instead of calling the people to let them know, they waited until we showed up AND they oversold the trip. Way to go Captain Dick's! You made a 4 year old come to tears as he watched the boat leave! Word of advice, if you make reservations, call every day to make sure they still have it, and make sure you show up at least 30 to 40 minutes before you are supposed to leave in case this happens again. If there was another head boat option close by, this place would go out of business because the poor management decisions.

    Booked a fishing trip for Wed morning. They called Tues morning saying we were late. No booking…read morereceipt, no confirmation number. Lesson, call 5 days ahead to confirm. Kimberly (manager) would not let us rebook. It took the boat captain's intervention to make that happen. When we did sail, the wind kept us off the ocean and in the inlet. We caught a crab, eel, and some bass. Weather cut the 4 hr trip to 1.5 hrs. Fishing the inlet is like fishing a lake. If you want to fish the inlet ( calmer water, no seasickness), try to find a time when the tide is rising. According to the locals, inlet fishing is better with a rising tide. Also, book early in the vacation in case weather forces them to cancel or keeps you off the ocean.
