Hot and tasty with that good dip. Stuffed clams were loaded up with flavor and were great. The clam chowder was a bit watery but packed flavor. The lobster roll was fresh! Loaded with butter and huge plate of fries. The lobster roll was loaded with a lot of claw meat. It wasn't seasoned with much of anything. It felt lacking and plain. The captains seafood pasta was loaded with a variety of seafood! It had lobster, scallops, and shrimp with creamy garlic butter sauce. All the seafood was fresh but the pasta felt old and cooked. The sauce was lacking in flavor. Tbh, if I didn't see the menu, I wouldn't have known it was a garlic butter sauce. Overall the food had some highs and lows, the service was quite slow in the beginning. We waited by the door to be seated for quite a while even though the restaurant was near empty.

We sat on the second level balcony and it was so relaxing watching the boats coming in and out. We ordered two frozen drinks, a melon colada and a margarita. I was so excited to see a melon colada on the menu because I don't see them often. Unfortunately, there was no melon flavor to it and it just tasted like a regular pina colada. We ordered chicken crispers as well. They were tasty and they give you a heaping portion so it's definitely an app for two. There's only one unisex bathroom downstairs that seemed to have a line every time I had to go. Not sure how great that would work out on a busy weekend.

You order at the window and pick up your food so not much service to speak of, but the cashier's were nice and helpful and the bartender crushed it. I had a banana mudslide concoction that was absolutely delicious and perfect on a warm late summer day. I will almost always go for a lobster roll (warm with butter, please) and this time was no different. Price was on par with what you'd expect for a lobster roll on the island and the portions were more than I expected, a lovely surprise. Tables were clean and I snagged a picnic table with a view of the water. Needless to say I was happy as a clam and would absolutely come back.

This place has a little bit of everything, but there are two things you can't leave without trying. First, the fried shrimp. I know, it sounds basic, but these are on another level. Lightly battered, seasoned just right, and cooked perfectly -- no heavy breading to hide the flavor, just clean, fresh shrimp done right. Second, head downstairs to their outdoor bar, Donovan's Reef, and get yourself a Dirty Banana. Think of it as a Mudslide's cooler, smoother cousin. Donovan himself makes every drink, and if you're like me and don't want your cocktail overpowered by alcohol, this is the perfect balance -- sweet, smooth, and dangerously easy to sip. Nancy's is usually one of my first stops when I hit the island, and for good reason. Simple, fresh, and consistent. Verdict: Island staple, no debate. I eat, I judge. The fork stops with me -- your feelings aren't on the menu.
