★★★★★ 5.0 Tammi Sewall Real Estate Agent · Sep 2025

Mackenzie was awesome!! Just wanted to say that first!! We learned about this place from another server at a different restaurant which was also amazing. This was one of the highlights of our visit. The food was incredible in the service McKenzie provided was excellent. She was very friendly, helpful with the menu items, and it was just an all-around fun visit. Looks like they have a lot to do there if the patio is open. Some outside games and just a great atmosphere with a beachy feel. We both had the fish and chips which was probably the best ever. Don't miss this incredible hot spot in Mystic!!❤️🤩🥰

Typical American restaurant with a nice big lawn filled with lawn games for the little ones. The food here was mid at best. The chicken wings and ribs were definitely overcooked and super dry… the steak was on the saltier side. The pastas were just okay. The best thing we had were surprisingly, the French fries.

The ONLY restaurant we ate at during our family vacation. And it was not the wrong choice! Service was great! The server checked on us multiple times, making sure drinks were filled and we didn't need anything. The food... the food was all fantastic! We ordered multiple apps and all had different meals, EVERYTHING was delicious! It wasn't overly crowded, but we were there a little early. We also sat outside, which was nice and covered. We had 5 children with us too, and they were happy playing at the outside entertainment area. The price was VERY reasonable. We had 9 ppl, and with a few drinks and the apps, less than 200. Would 100% eat there again.

Went for a mid-afternoon lunch and we were able to quickly get seated. I had the fish tacos which are made with cod. Not much fish and a lot of salsa which soaked into the tortilla making it impossible to pick up. If you aren’t a fan of soggy bread, I suggest you order another meal. My husband enjoyed his fish sandwich. He had it accompanied by a generous side salad. Between the two restaurants, I prefer the Stonington menu over this one.

★★★☆☆ 3.0 Brian Lovasco · Aug 2025

Rolled in on a Friday night with our one-year-old, and the place was hopping — mostly with retirees who looked like they’ve been coming here since Nixon was in office. Everyone was super friendly, which made me feel slightly guilty for what I’m about to say next. Ordered the “brisket,” which was really just pot roast wearing a brisket costume and hoping no one would notice. I did. My taste buds filed a formal complaint. Easily the worst brisket I’ve ever had. Mac and cheese? Glorious. Cornbread? Solid. Mashed potatoes? Sad. Like, “forgot to salt them and then apologized with a pat of butter” sad. Beer list was aggressively average. I got a local brew in a can, which felt like a passive-aggressive dare. Overall: lovely people, meh food, and a brisket that needs therapy.
