    Amazing views, impressive service, and some wonderful food. Highly recommend the LSC Trio so you can try a bit of everything. And the portions are well worth the price; I couldn’t even finish everything, and packed up at least 30% of the leftovers—enough for a brunch for another day. The calamari and seafood chowder are also delicious, and so is The Rigged 56. Would also recommend the Boathouse Signature, as you’d have 3 seafood items plus some sides to try out. Would highly recommend this place for a special occasion. While prices aren’t necessarily cheap, but the portions are definitely generous for what I expected.

    The Boathouse is our go to restaurant for family meals. With wheelchairs, strollers and everything in between it is very comfortable, has great views and good food with variety for everyone. We will continue to go back.

    I ordered the ahi tuna and an iced tea. After the entrée came out the iced tea still has not. I thought they forgot about it and 2 mins later the iced tea finally came out. I dont know what took so long as there were only 5 other tables in the restaurant.
