Alcove

I had an amazing experience here lead by Alicia. Seated on the patio with an incredible view. The oysters were so fresh and delicious. My daughter is the pickiest eater and is wowed by the chicken tenders and fries. The hospitality provided was outstanding! Alicia went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable and had everything we needed. Her expertise and recommendations were spot on.

I’m not going to argue that Alcove’s food is great because I ‘like’ it… who am I? Everybody has their own sense of taste, their own cultural roots and preferences - but - I know enough to say that the cuisine is eclectic and genius, and visionary. Whoever is behind the design of this cooking, the range of wisdom that goes into its creation, knows very well what they’re doing, has been around, maybe the globe, and has talent, a smart palate and a wide palette, and divine sense of balance in taste and ingredients. On a summer evening, nice weather, around sunset, the experience is peak and sublime. Unforgettable. My only quibbles are the pushiness of the establishment in 2 ways - one, given that it’s basically a tapas place (small plates), the menu has advice to order 3-4 plates per perso

Afternoon snack was delicious, great service and atmosphere sitting outside! Spinach Artichoke dip was the best thing we had by far!

There’s a lot to like here. Gorgeous views outside, really modern interior, prompt service, and sustainability as a focus from the menu. I think like many spots nearby you’ll find seafood is one of the highlights, but I wish they could do more with their appetizer section - it feels a bit lacking. The bread was delightful if small in “value”/portion sizing. Ditto the ice cream at the end. Entrees felt generously portioned and were quite good, but the burger was a bit lackluster - just a little dull and not all that well presented- same for fries. Same for the chicken. Delicious, don’t get me wrong, but plating needs work- just very bland aesthetically. Feels like a 3/5 there but a solid 4.5/5 in flavor. I’m doing the full 5/5 stars because we had a good time, felt well attended, and gen

A wonderful, cozy, elegant, but casual place. In warm weather, the outdoor patio has a fantastic waterfront view. In cold weather, the spiked hot chocolate is amazing. Delicious small plates, many reasonably priced.
