One of our favorite places on the Cape. Good food, great drinks & lively bar scene. Plenty of parking, great wait staff but double check your reservation as they see to lose them. Called 2 weeks in advance, spoke to Kristie but no record on arrival. Fortunately a table for 4 became available as we arrived & we were seated on time.

We stopped here for a bite to eat after catching a sunset at May flower beach. We wanted to try something new. The food was good, the staff were attentive, friendly and efficient. Seating is limited but, comfortable. Plenty of parking. We enjoyed this little local favorite and if your in the area you should definitely pop in for a bite!

Enjoy our award-winning cuisine and cocktails while overlooking the priceless beauty of the Nantucket Sound.

Ocean House is a beautiful setting, right on Nantucket Sound. Food and service are excellent. I had the tuna taco and a swordfish special. My husband had a salad and the cape cod chip encrusted cod. A couple of glasses of wine. We were here to celebrate my birthday and it was on the reservation. It would have been nice to have a complimentary dessert or just something special to acknowledge the event.

From the mostly solid reviews, we expected more from this 10-yr old, modern restaurant on the Dennis shore of Bass River, right behind the marina. The menu is limited, and mostly fried, although they do offer grilled salmon and swordfish, and burgers. Pros: the view is nice, since the building is raised, the waitstaff are friendly and efficient, and the seafood was fresh and tasted fine. Limited seating inside, but sizable covered deck, and also seats with tiny drink tables on the lawn below. Cons: prices are higher than comparable local places, and some protein portions are smaller. The only real deal was the field green salads, which were large and fresh, and reasonably priced at $12. Lunch for 2 with no alcohol was $57 pretax.

It was our last dinner in Cape Cod and it was a great evening with our teen. We had the seared striped bass, two ways chicken, fresh oysters, and duck confit and spinach salad. The food was cooked just right and the sauce for the fish was very flavorful. Our son really liked the sour apple in the duck salad. Our host Antonella was great!

This was the closest restaurant to our hotel, and rated reasonably well. We were a little disappointed as a consequence as not up to our self set expectations.For us, the food was expensive but at least it came with some vegetable! A little overdone, but greenery was very welcome on our road trip so far. We both had the blackened swordfish which in itself was thick and excellent. The setting was canteen style and quite noisy, also a little chilly. The pub next adjoining looked more convivial but eating was in this separate bit.Probably the best local option that said, and seemed popular with locals, but not condusive to us.

For no real reason, we hadn't been here in 40 years.... and I should have been. Baked stuffed lobster was great. Lobster bisque brilliant. Quantity and quality over the top. Service was terrific. One of the largest and most extensive menus on the Cape.

2. Skipper Chowder House

The Skipper Restaurant & Chowder House is a seasonal restaurant open from mid April to mid October. We serve the finest seafood with the best view since 1936. Winner of the Newport, Boston and Cape Cod chowder festivals.
Reviewed By ChiefGuru
One of Cape Cod's oldest restaurants, the Skipper was founded in 1936 just off the coast of Nantucket Sound. I suspect that, when initially constructed, unobstructed views of the Sound were available. Currently, Seaside Cottages are between them and the water. However, if you gaze to the Northeast, especially when sitting their second floor deck, yes you can see the ocean. Parking is available in a surface lot across the street. As mentioned above, the restaurant has two floors. The first floor is family dining. The second floor has a bar with inside seating as well as a deck with South facing views. We requested and were provided seating on their outside deck. Even on an off-season week night, the Skipper was busy when we arrived for dinner. We had a 30 minute wait for a table. However, when we were done eating and leaving, we saw that the number of people waiting was near triple what it was when we arrived. This is a testament to their popularity. Our server was very good, friendly, efficient and quick. Their menu definitely focuses on fresh seafood, which is what I love. My other half is a vegetarian but is kind enough to allow me to satisfy my appetite for seafood, especially when it is so fresh. The Skipper's menu has a wonderful array of fresh fish and shellfish. The have a raw bar as well as many appetizer and cooked seafood options. They offer soups and salads, including their Triple Crown Champion Chowder. Of course, they too offer lobster and lobster rolls. If a "land lover" is in your group, they have Chicken Parmesan, Prime Rib and Fried Chicken options. In our case, we had their 10 Knot Nachos (Tortilla chips topped with jalapeño peppers, red onions, black olives, diced ripe tomatoes, scallions and jack cheese. Salsa and sour cream served on the side) and their Fried Oyster platter. The portion size was perfect for both selections. I found the oysters nicely breaded, lightly fried, juicy and flavorful - perfect for my appetite. We liked the food, location and ambiance of the Skipper and would gladly return.

Been passing this place for ten years and finally decided to try it. We were not impressed. The menu had a little of everything on it, and we tried a variety of different things. None of them were very good. The interior is dark and dated, and service was very average. There are too many good places around to go here, sorry.Sorry you were not impressed. We always wish for our customers to have a great experience, and most of them do. If you would like to contact me further about what meals you had, I would be happy to discuss any issues that came up. [email protected] Have a good summer!
