    Clam stew
    Roberto B.

    Where do I begin with this place. As my wife said it "this was exactly what I was hoping for to start our vacation in Cape Cod" The oysters were delicious the focaccia with butter and prosciutto added refreshed the pallet and the star of the show the clam stew. I was a bit hesitant about ordering the stew but I'm so glad I did. The consistency of the broth and the heartiness of the beans and bacon pairs well with the clams. If you are ever in Wellfleet or passing by I suggest stopping here for some good food. Our server was friendly and informative about the menu. The outdoor ambiance was relaxing with the musicians playing tunes.

    A must stop every year, though we missed 2024. First time with the new ownership and, as with all previous visits, The Wicked Oyster delivers. Wellfleet Oysters are probably our Worldwide favorites, the Day Boat Scallop dish and the Pan Seared Sole were excellent!!! The only thing I could say was not our taste was the music playlist. EDM/Electronica probably not the best choice.

    New owners - new menu. The Wicked Oyster was sold earlier this year. It looks like the restaurant got a new coat of paint and a new menu. The cocktails are ambitious and tasty. The menu is smaller, but most plates feature local seafood with a creative presentation. The Lobster Gnocchi is delicious. I would have given the meal 5 stars but the service was understaffed. It took 20 minutes for the server to collect my credit card and process the card after presenting the check.

    Lemon Risotto with shrimp
    Steven C.

    Overall not a bad experience, I came up from DC and must say the food was good for coming in after 9 am with a party of 9. The lazy lobster was good although the gnocchi was a bit doughy and dense. The clam chowder was a bit loose and clams were not large, I was looking for a bit more flavor but the consistency was on point. The crab cake was good and full of crab meat but the shrimp egg rolls were a bit thick. The star if the show was the lemon risotto and shrimp. Really good! I'd come back to see if an earlier meal is better.

    Gross.

    They ran out of oysters, so we couldn't get any. The steak was 80% fat, there were 4 small scallops in sauce, my wine was full of sediment and the food was completely subpar. It should change its name to the wicked ripoff. I do not recommend. $70 deposit? For Trader Joe's expired wine. Cool.

    Little gem salad - a baby romaine head with a creamy Thai peanut dressing.

    This was our first time visiting Cape Cod and we were stayinging in Eastham for two nights. Our…read morehotel recommended this place for dinner and we are so glad they did because it was fabulous. When we arrived, we were not sure whether we wanted to sit indoors or outside. The owner, Caroline, was so gracious and gave us a little tour of all of the seating options and we loved that. We decided on a booth in the indoor dining room and it ended up being a great choice with nice music playing there. The menu has plenty of seafood appetizers and entrees. We started with the seafood sampler and it did not disappoint. It had shrimp, lobster, oysters and clams. Our next appetizer was the steamed mussels dish, another great dish. Our final appetizer was the tuna tartar, at the recommendation of our server, Danielle. It was absolutely delicious. We highly recommend this place.

    We'd driven past Caroline's and immediately caught my eye on a Thursday late afternoon in North…read moreEastham on our way to Ptown. From the outside gravel lot and simple string white lights, honestly, even from outside, you'd swear this was just another casual flip-flop Cape spot. The energy is pumping, the crowd is spilling onto the patio and the bar area might seem as it could double as a summer beach club. Inside, though, the navy and white style keeps things crisp, nautical and just slightly elevated enough without trying too hard. It's relaxed, but you can feel there's something more beneath the surface. Even with our res, we waited a bit- which wasn't a problem. Once we were seated, the service snaps into a bit casual/a bit fine-dining gear- it's attentive but not stuffy. Caroline's menu is where the "casual" mask fully drops. It's Cape Cod, so of course oysters are a must- cold, briny and perfect. Then the main plates push things a little higher: my halibut was cooked to perfection, was meaty and silky. My husband's linguine+clams was another hit- garlicky and decadent without being heavy. And the grand finale of them all was our dessert. I initially opted out of their chocolate pot de crème- but I gave in as their only chocolate item. I'm so happy we ordered it. Except, I misread the toasted marshmallow part in our dessert. I removed it and placed it on another plate. This so-called pots de crème had nothing custardy about it. It had the shape alright- but this was so freaking moussey- it was ultra heavenly. Our server Megan was a sweetheart from beginning to end. Caroline's is the kind of place that kind of says 'laid-back'- but the presentation, meal and pricing, all scream as your go-to destination that's a step-up from the ordinary. Obviously you aren't wearing your sequins dress here- but if Caroline's gave you a wink, it would say: you thought this was just a casual night out? Think again.
