Constantine’s on the Bay

Rarely do I give 5 stars, but this place deserves 6! How is there not a line around the corner to get into this hidden gem! Where to start? Well, exactly where I did: the Pumpkin Caramel Espresso Martini met my best expectation of what that combination would taste like. The rest of the meal did not meet expectations; it blew right past them! If you are a fan of fried calamari, as I am, the Mediterranean Calamari from Constantine's was otherworldly: fresh, simple, yet with the perfect blend of Mediterranean flavors I had no idea were possible in calamari! Unfortunately, it will ruin every other calamari I eat outside of Constantine's, as it was by far the best I've ever had! Next, the main dish: Steak Frites. Asked for medium well and got the juiciest well-done NY strip I've had in a long t

Came here for lunch. Was ok. Drinks were good. My wife liked her buffalo chicken wedge salad. I had the tacos. They were ok. The clam fritters were ok. Overall, a decent lunch.

The staff are very pleasant and friendly, the food is phenomenal as to say this is my favorite restaurant of all time. I love the outdoor seating and the indoor is beautifully decorated. I would recommend this place to everyone.

The food was phenomenal! 5 stars, well-deserved. I cannot wait to come back! Very high quality meals. Big portions of food at reasonable prices. My husband loved his fresh tuna melt. My baked stuffed shrimp was the best ever! 5 jumbo shrimp with excellent stuffing and a citrus lobster sauce, tender baby asparagus and flavorful seasoned baby roasted potatoes. We were upstairs overlooking Niantic bay. It was all just marvelous!

We stumbled upon this wonderful little restaurant on the waterfront in Niantic, CT. "Contantines's on the bay" They had the friendliest staff and amazing mussels and a few local IPA's which were recommended by our waiter Xavier. The beers were great and his amazing service was awesome. It was great meeting Brittany as well. Highly recommend this restaurant if passing by.
