    The fish tacos- very fresh & well prepared. Calamari salad - generous portions and everything was fresh. For dessert I had the happy hour Roberto's Famous Espresso Martini. It was fab! We'll definitely be back - a great menu with lots of variety and great happy hour specials.

    We've been to this place many times. Friendly place. Great food. Generous portions. Affordably priced.

    Nachos with beef topping.

    Always enjoy our meals drinks and service here. Stopped in for lunch one day for drinks and something to eat. In the shareable section they had nachos so we ordered them to share. The plate was huge and stacked high. It was enough for at least five people we ended up taking more than half home. We stopped in again on Thursday late afternoon and found out that Thursdays are taco night. I ordered the taco salad which was excellent. The taco shell was packed full with a lot of beef lettuce and tomato. I ordered mine without onions and jalapeño. Checking their menu out on yelp it didn't show the taco Thursday menu out so I added it to my review for other yelpers to check out as well as a few pictures of my taco salad. It was So Good!

    Chicken Piccata with GF penne

    I brought my 89 year old MIL to meet her 89 year old cousin for their birthday lunch. Roberto's is halfway between their houses. I had a gluten allergy and saw that the menu had many gluten-free options. My MIL uses a walker and has trouble with stairs. She was disappointed to see there was no ramp to get into the restaurant. There was a grab bar but only on one side and was still difficult for her to get into the restaurant. But she made it. The interior is plain. Not much decorations and can get pretty loud with a large lunch crowd. The 80-year-old ordered margaritas. The frozen margarita maker was out for service so they had margaritas delivered in pint glasses. I ordered the chicken piccata with gluten-free penne. There was a lot of food. It was OK. My MIL had the shrimp scampi. She said it was very good, but was disappointed to see the shrimp still had the tails attached. It was difficult for her to eat. Her cousin had a cheddar burger. It was very big, cooked as requested , and she loved every bite. We had chocolate pie for dessert and I had a GF strawberry shortcake. It was a treat to have a gluten-free dessert! Overall, it was good to have a spot between the two houses that also have gluten-free options. We probably won't return because of the stairs.

    TL:DR - My experience was not good but maybe yours will be better. I was driving by and got enticed by the smell of their BBQ. I pulled in and first impressions were two fold: the parking lots needs lines redrawn because people just parked wherever and however, and the entrance is not immediately obvious. The entryway and waiting area are very log cabin, and you can tell from the well apportioned waiting area that this place can get crowded. If you're tall, look out, I had to duck more than once and definitely to get into the dining area. The dining area, unfortunately, really left the aesthetic behind and was simply white walls and ceiling. It felt like a cafeteria more than anything. All that blank space cries out for murals, log paneling, something. The dichotomy was striking, to say the least. My service was excellent, very friendly and attentive. Because I went on a Saturday, despite being lured in by the smell of the BBQ, I opted for the prime rib, medium rare, mashed potatoes and vegetable, with six wings Carolina sauce to start. Of note, there was no table bread of any sort, though the salad for the meal came out quickly. In fact, the meal pacing was on point. The wings were fine, nothing to write home about and not worth the price on the menu. The biggest failing was the entree. The carrots - flavorless, most likely canned sliced carrots that had sat in flavor leeching water for too long. The potatoes - flavorless as well. Butter, salt, and pepper later they were fine. Prime rib - cooked to medium well, it was tough like a pot roast. There was no rind to speak of, which left the au jus lacking robustness. Also, a little sweet, which I don't understand that trend. Did I finish it all? No, because I went to use the restroom mid-meal, making sure to ask the server where it was so she knew that's where I'd gone, and came back to a cleared table reset for the next patrons. Why do I say your mileage may vary? The BBQ I didn't try smelled excellent and there were many other options on the menu as well, so they may have areas of expertise I am not aware of.

    The bacon pizza was excellent. The potato skins not do much. They were over cooked but luckily this doesn't happen often because they make the best skins around. I did take out and got the bacon pizza and the skins.

    This is a very nice restaurant. They have a good size private parking lot. Enter by the bar on the left, or restaurant on the right. There is a large waiting area and coat rack at the restaurant entrance. Restrooms are between the bar and dining room. Bar side has a short bar to sit at just inside the door. They offer several beers on tap. A number of hightop tables are past the bar and around the corner, plus there is one long upholstered bench seat. The restaurant side is booth seating along the walls, tables in the center and a huge fireplace on the back wall with high ceilings. The menu is pretty big and offers apps, sandwiches and burgers, entrees, seafood, Italian, mexican, american. It's a mash-up. Their 'pasta' page uses the word 'al dente' in place of 'pasta' but the pasta my husband got was so over cooked it was literally falling apart. That should never have been served to a customer. If you are calling your pasta section 'al dente', you need to follow through on that expectation. The sausages smelled great and there were enough for another meal. The serving size is huge (see photo). My NY strip steak was excellent. It came with a side salad; romaine lettuce, red onion, cherry tomato, croutons with choice of dressing. Also included with the meal are two sides. Choices include baked, mashed or french fried potatoes, veg and coleslaw. The vegetable offered during our visit was fresh, boiled, sliced zucchini and it was cooked nicely; slightly firm. Very pleased with that. Fries are crunchy but the oil was probably ready to be changed. We would probably return except for the loud country music that played throughout our visit. If it were on a mix that included a few other styles, that's cool. The droning on and on of endless country music does not lend itself to a pleasant dining experience for us. Our waitress was excellent. My food was prepared well. Prices seem fair. Dining room, booth, flatwear, restrooms: all clean. If country music would improve your dining experience, I recommend this spot.

    Eggplant Parmesan with spaghetti.  YUM!!

    We had an event in Lebanon, CT. and before heading back to the hotel, we stopped into Roberto's for dinner. It was packed on a Saturday night and ended up having dinner at the bar which worked out just fine. Chrissy waited on us and she was fun, bubbly and took very good care of us. Mr. B. ordered the half rack of ribs as they claim best ribs in Ct. He said they were good, not great and were not very tender, but there was no meat left on the bones so they must have been just fine. I chose the Eggplant Parmesan. Great choice, but good heavens, it was enough to feed a family of four from one plate. I barely made a dent, but each and every bite was scrumptious. The spaghetti was perfectly cooked. The eggplant sliced thin, breaded well and the sauce over the top was thick and flavorful, with lots of cheese melted on top. Makes my mouth water just thinking about it. Lebanon is such a little town, but if you find yourself in the area, I think you definitely find a delicious meal at the Log Cabin.

    nachos. Picture does not do justice. It was big
    Candy S.

    Great atmosphere got there around 1 no waiting. The staff was excellent, our server came by about 5 times asking if we needed anything , she was truly awesome. We ordered the nachos she said it was big and it was like for 6 people and loaded. Price was very reasonable. Definitely would make a trip to come back again.

    Another Prime rib dinner. It's just so good!

    We'd heard from friends that Shipwright's Daughter in Mystic was a must-try. Wow, were they right…read more From the warm greeting at the door to the beautiful decor, the experience started strong. We were seated at a lovely table for two overlooking Main Street - watching people stroll by from that elevated perch behind glass felt almost cinematic. The real star of the show was the food, which is ultimately what you're there for, and it delivered. The menu offers plenty of options without being overwhelming. I started with the Crispy Pig's Head as an appetizer - a bold choice that turned out to be outstanding. For my entrée, the bucatini with seacoast mushrooms, sherry, parmesan, mushroom cream, and fine herbs was perfectly cooked, and carried a subtle but deeply flavorful sauce. And the housemade sourdough with poblano honey butter? Absolutely outstanding. To be fair, our server took a little time to warm up but found their footing and gave us everything we needed. Parking in Mystic on a busy weekend night can also be a challenge and expensive. Neither is reason enough to skip this one. Ship Wright's Daughter is exactly the kind of restaurant Mystic deserves. Don't wait for a special occasion -- just go.

    I really didn't want to write this review, but potential patrons should know what they can expect…read morewhen working with the event staff at Shipwright's Daughter - if they plan to have a private dining experience and event there. My husband and I got married last December. We decided we would hold off on celebrating with our family and invite everyone out from California to join us for a weekend full of activities in Connecticut and a special dinner at Shipwright's Daughter during Memorial Day weekend. We contacted the restaurant's events team to work out high level details starting in late January - to book a private room and hold a date and time. From the get go, the communication we received from the event staff was dismal to say the least. Not only did the events manager misquote the estimate for the room reservation, she came back and asked for a much higher price (up charging by an additional 30% of the original minimum fee) two months after we confirmed and discussed the date. She then explained it was due to the holiday weekend. Our date had never changed from the moment we inquired, so we would have appreciated knowing this upfront. Over the course of several months (and an absurd number of emails and a few calls), we tried to solidify the menu and wine selection and made multiple attempts before hearing back from the team. It was about two weeks before the big event when we were able to confirm a menu. It was about four days before the event that we heard back from the beverage director, but by then, my husband and I had already decided we would bring our own wine bottles, not wanting to leave it to chance with this team. I won't go into further details about the frustration we felt regarding their system for communications (they use an internal system that doesn't make it easy for guests to know who is copied on emails and who sees what). That is something I hope they will work out. When the big day came, I walked into the room and noticed there were a number of chairs missing, so I counted the chairs. They had an incorrect number of chairs for adults and not enough high chairs for the toddlers. We had requested a specific number of these chairs (weeks prior and mentioned it multiple times in writing), and I thought it was safe to assume that this was a basic checklist item for events set up. I was dumbfounded in the moment. I couldn't help but wonder what else they were going to miss or mess up that evening. It was disappointing to have our family members wait while the staff scrambled to pull other chairs into the room. From the time it took to take everyone's order from the set menu, the time between courses being served, and the attentiveness for pouring water and wine - all of it was a miss. The level of hospitality that we expected from a restaurant so recognized for its incredible food and approach to sustainable sourcing was completely overshadowed by the lack of attention and care by its staff - since day one of planning this event. Even a few of our family members commented on this during the dinner. At the end of the day, we felt like an obligation rather than welcomed guests, and that is mainly why I'm leaving this review. We had been patrons of Shipwright's a couple of times prior to this event, which is why we chose this establishment - to represent the best that Connecticut has to offer, when it comes to a dining experience we could vouch for. We no longer feel that we can recommend this restaurant. If you care about hospitality, I would recommend looking elsewhere.

The chowder was the best I've ever had. Plenty of meat and seasoned perfectly. The scallops were amazing.

Appetizer portions (especially the nachos) gigantic. Clearly it's for the wow factor to distract diners from the 100% food service supplier, heat and eat options. Even all sauces and dressings come in the 2oz /4oz soufflé cup with the LID STILL ON. like we are literally in the airport. Wings to start along with nachos with shredded beef. The only wing sauce (we tried 4) that tasted like anything was their "Oy-Vey" which is hotter than their bottled, ready to serve buffalo. The buffalo, bbq, and dry rub jerk were tasteless, as was the blue cheese. The wings were medium size. Not the jumbo party wings that come in the 40lbs box. Nachos were ok. Good portion of cheese and meat. But the thimble of sour cream and tasteless pour from the bottle salsa were embarrassing But... if we were drinking and enjoying friends ... it would have been fine to soak up the microbrews, I suppose. Sandwiches were disastrous. One had the friend catfish sandwich, one the spicy shrimp wrap, and I had the farmers wrap/add blackened chicken. Portion sparse. Fries and/or onion rings mid-grade coated/cover the plate type. And I added coleslaw (maybe my favorite food on the planet) at our server's suggestion...the dry, tasteless cabbage set coleslaw back 50 years. KFC slaw is miles better (and I hate that). What ruined it was all sandwiches had the same "funk" to them. Each member of our table tried to identify in their own order, and sharing some of each others, what it was. The common denominator was the funky/carbon/dirty grease taste and smell that came from their grill (all wraps and sandwich bread/roll/wrap) was heated on it. It clearly was filthy. Taste permeated everything. They don't create/chef here. It's food service supplier "speed scratch" which is assembled in the kitchen. I know staffing is hard. I know no one wants to work (they do, however, want to get paid), but really really really disappointed based on reviews and menu. Best part, I asked for a small cup of oy-vey sauce as my tasteless wrap was so dry. Server said that she'd be happy to. But it would be $4 from the kitchen. Ummm... hard pass. Again, maybe phenomenal if you're a college student at East Conn. but if you're not drinking the food simply does not stand up on its own. Worst $178 with tip (with no alcohol) I have ever spent.
