Mother’s Day with my hubby & MIL. Place is very pretty! First time for all of us even though we live around the corner. I ordered the clam bellies but they no longer serve them due to poor quality from vendor. I was a little disappointed but ordered the lobster roll instead. It was good. Not the best one ever, but good. French fries were to die for. MIL had fish & chips and enjoyed it very much. The winner was my husband’s lamb rack with mashed potatoes. Perfectly cooked. Just delicious. Pistachio cake & ice cream for dessert. Yummo!! Will definitely return! Server was awesome as well!!

The Chatham House has really good food and the bartender made excellent martinis. The vibe and clientele were a lot older than us but they were having a great time dancing. Great food and drinks would just prefer a younger crowd.

Great dinner again. Second dinner this week at Chatham House, when we arrived restaurant was very busy. We ordered a drink at the bar while we waited for a table only took about ten minutes to be seated not bad for south Florida dining on a weekend We brought a friend with us who had never been here before. We all enjoyed our dinners very much. Service was excellent and paced just right. If you’re looking for a rushed dinner you won’t find it here It is nice to be able to relax between courses and have conversations Food was excellent service was excellent and we will definitely return on our next visit to the area

First time at Chatham after living in LBTS for a couple years. Everyone in our group of 6 was very impressed by Chatham. I think the slightly more upscale ambiance was a welcome contrast to most of the beach type restaurants in the area. The food was very good quality, and staff very friendly. They have a very attractive bar area with a piano bar, which is hard to find, with a small dance area. Overall we were extremely pleased. If you are looking for a calmer, more romantic, intimate setting, this is a good choice.

Outstanding food, great service. Ambience a bit under-whelming. The Restaurant name might imply that they only have New England seafood but the veal, pasta, antipasto and salmon were very flavorful.

We are locals and have been there before and were not disappointed once again. We did have reservations but it was fairly quiet with plenty of tables. The bar was somewhat lively with music and interaction between the musician and patrons. Very nice. We were seated and the service is always spot on. The servers don’t rush you and the pace of the meal was perfect. I ordered the veal sorrentina, which was veal topped with eggplant, prosciutto,tomato slice, and fresh mozzarella. AMAZING!! My husband ordered the rack of lamb, which was delicious. Our appetizer was grilled octopus. Always a favorite of ours and this time was no different. I always feel like I’m transported to another time when we dine there. Kind of an old school place...in a really fabulous way. Highly recommend

Was not impressed with this place. For a place on the beach at 7:30 pm on a Saturday night and only 5 tables I should have known something was not right. Service was slow and non-existent. Food was average , nothing special. Prices were ok. We used to eat at the old Pa D's all the time and its a shame what this place has become. Won't be back for many years but pretty sure they wont be here that long. Stay away

We had so much fun! Definitely for a more mature crowd--music is from the 60s--80s with lots of old favorites sung live. Bar Bites menu is great! Customer Service is outstanding! Food absolutely plentiful and delicious! They do not rush you and provided ample time to relax, chat, and dine at our leisure! Booth seating is comfortable, clean, and spacious.

What a find at the beach! Easy parking right at the front door, very nice bar, attentive service and elegant table setting in a casual atmosphere. If you want a quiet place with great food and superb service, this is the place for you. We tried the fresh fish and the lobster roll and both were excellent and moderately priced.

It was our first time here and found it surprisedly nice, cozy with very good food. Even though we were early for our reservation the host team agreed to let us in. The restaurant had a nice ambiance, music was suitable for a conversational dinner without shouting at each other, the presentation was excellent and the taste delicious. The food portions were adequate for adults, our server Alex was very friendly, polite and knew how to properly take care of a group, he was very detail oriented and understood our needs and special requests. I do recommend this place for picky eaters who want more quality food for their money.

I ordered eggplant parm which was very good with side of pasta. My fellow diners were also happy with their choices. We are a group with a few dietary requirements and the menu was varied enough that we could all find a good choice. If you are in a big rush this is not the place for you. But people who want to spend time talking with friends,etc. it is not a rushed place. We were there on a busy night and did not fell rushed at all.

Overall excellent dining experience. Our server, Michael was great. He was friendly and attentive. He checked to insure our meals were prepared as ordered. We did not have to ask for our drinks to be redilled as he was right on it. Both of our meals were tasty and serving size was just right. This was our first time at Chatham House but certainly not our last

The Chatam House has a limited menu in the summertime. They do not have substitutions, not even something as simple as a bowl of vanilla ice cream if you don't eat tiramisu. However, all of the food was delicious. The service was excellent. Our waiter, Alex, was very personable and attentive. The atmosphere is pleasant and one in which you can speak in normal tones and be heard by all parties at the table.

The restaurant has changed its sunset menu which now is extended to 10 pm but is more limited especially on desserts. Previously, they offered a delicious tiramisu or pistachio pound cake with pistachio ice cream. Now, the only dessert offered as part of this menu was vanilla ice cream. It was homemade and very good, but still...The salmon piccata was very good as was the salad. Service was great!

Unfortunately it took a very long time for the food to arrive and when it did one of the orders was incorrect and the other 3 orders came out cold. After sending the cold orders back they came back still barely warm....the plates were actually cool. The food did have a decent flavor however fell short due to not being hot. While they took a % off the bill the manager never came over to greet our table yet he managed to pay special attention to several other tables. I can understand why there were not many patrons.....would not go back.

We have been going to Lauderdale By The Sea for years and have not been to Chatham House previously. We discovered it on a walk by the restaurant and said we should give them a visit. We made reservations on Open Table and are so Happy that we did. Everything was wonderful from start to finish. The service was excellent during the entire meal. Everybody's food was Excellent and some of the best we have had in South Florida. Desserts where also very good. We will be back to visit again.
