My wife started with a Cosmo, her favorite cocktail, and said it was excellent. We shared the strawberry salad lunch special and the Popeye burger with fries. The fries were an unusual and cool wide spiral cut, and some of the best we'd ever had. The burger was wagyu beef with Boursin and spinach. The salad had a nice touch of candied walnuts. We got dessert. The flourless lava cake and the key lime pie. Both were amazing and took us to the threshold of diabetes. This has to be one of the best restaurants in the area! It's absolutely wonderful.

The chipped beef on toast was outstanding - - they actually put some of it between the two slices and stack the toast up. The potatoes were very tasty. My husband enjoyed his eggs, scrapple and potatoes. The prices were very reasonable. From what I understand, this place might only have two or three employees so if you hit them up at a busy time, please be patient.

It appeared like that had a pretty big menu for such a small place, but they offer NO vegetables,…read moreunless you call fries and chips veggies. That was my first impression. Then we ordered 2 grilled cheese and ham sandwiches and a cheese burger. It took at least 40 minutes to deliver our food. We were about to leave, but waited a few more minutes since we would start again with ordering at another restaurant. After the 40 minute wait, a regular ham and cheese came out for my husband, a cheeseburger came for our son, and for me a grilled ham and cheese with tomato came out with the bread burned so much, I couldn't scrape off all the char. I finally took it back and they brought the same sandwich back to me saying they wouldn't charge for it (like go ahead and eat the carcinogenic toast anyway). They said they had no more ham I said bring me a grilled cheese and tomato sandwich. I finally got the sandwich, but they forgot the tomato. I was just so happy it was not burned. I do not recommend. Ambiance is a cheap diner, but the food is not cheap. For 3 adults we paid $44.00. The grilled cheese sandwiches were cheap, but the cheese burger with fries was pretty expensive. And 2 ice teas for $7.00, which seamed a little high for a hole in the wall. I wish I took a photo of the burned grilled cheese.

I ordered a country fried steak, and everything was wonderful. The entire experience was really comforting. I don't think anyone at that restaurant knows it, but their hospitality and service really helped me. I'm very grateful for the opportunity to eat there, and I'll most definitely be going back.

We split the crab chowder, which was very tasty! And then I had a fried haddock sandwich with a side caesar salad. I really liked my sandwich. It was perfectly battered and fried. My husband had the crab cake sandwich and a side of the scratch corn. The crabcake was good, but the scratch corn was too greasy for our taste. Overall, the food was really good, and the water view is really nice. Great place for a meal! Side note: their cakes looked incredible, but we didn't try them this time. I would definitely consider going back for a slice of cake.

The Pier Restaurant is a whole vibe! After contemplating, researching and comparing several…read morerestaurants in the area, I decided we should visit The Pier. You have the option of dinning indoors and outside on the deck. No reservation required and plenty of room. The deck only has about 6 or 7 tables and you're in direct sun. We opted for the deck. It was warm with the sun beating down on us, but you can't beat the view and ambiance. A performer was indoors singing, which was a cute idea and people on boats would just pull up and dock and come into the restaurant. Pretty cool concept. The food was absolutely delish! We wanted to try the crab pretzel but they were unfortunately out of that dish, so we pivoted to the wings. Lemon pepper, to be exact. We loved them! I ordered the blackened salmon with a kale crunch salad and lime rice. That was probably the best salmon I've ever had! And the portion was huge!! I also ordered the lemonade crush. Perfect for a warm day! Our server was so sweet and helpful during our visit. She made sure to check on us frequently and she had a very pleasant demeanor. What's funny is she has an identical twin working here also and I would often confuse the two. Lol! All and all, we had a fabulous time!. After we ate, we did a little roaming around the area. The area has a lot of cool places to visit. Even though the ride here is about 1 hour 10 minutes from my house, it was sooooo worth the ride. Give the area a try! You won't be disappointed.

After traveling out of town and finally back in the area, it was time to unwind. It was one of the…read morefirst warm days of the year and decided to come here to grab a small bite to eat and to unwind. This area, with the nice weather, was a bit crazy to get to. Tons of traffic, a Saturday night, live music, and right along the water. Combine all those things, and it was a packed strip of people and things to do. We got to The Pier and were greeted immediately and escorted to our seats. With the nice weather we opted to sit outside. Not the best move on our part as it turned windy while we were out there. We weren't going to let the wind stop us, we looked over the menu quickly and ordered waters until we decided on drinks. Well, the wind struck and took one of the menus up off the table and tipped over a water glass. Water doused one of our party and we learned our lesson on where to keep the menus until taken from us. I was advised that you had to get a bucket here. I had to ask what exactly is a bucket before I decided that. I was told that a bucket was just one of their drink in a bigger quantity service in a pail...or bucket. I was like, alright, let's do this. After looking at the menu I went with a Lemonade Crush, fresh squeezed lemonade, lemon vodka, and, as they put it, "a splash of soda." I don't drink often at this point in my life, but this was delicious. After a very long week of work travel, this was the perfect way to cap it off. As for food, I definitely went light. I only ordered an appetizer. I went with the Pretzels & Queso. These were like pretzel bites, so don't let the name mislead you and think you are getting multiple pretzels. Maybe pretzel balls is a proper way to describe it. The queso for this, some of the best I have ever had. The service here is top notch as well. Our server made sure we were taken care of and made sure that our orders were correct and came out.
