★★★★★ 5.0 jahem gilligan · Jan 2026

I’ll start by saying waiter and food was amazing. He was running the bar and waiting but still attentive. The hostess should just be put in the back, she showed no urgency to seat us, and just seems to not want to be there. But I will not take away from the restaurant because of her. Food was delicious, me and the wife loved the crab dip and mussels (just the right amount of spice). My tacos were perfectly fried, and all the flavors complement each other. My wife liked her spicy chicken sandwich, I loved her sandwich as well. The restaurant is quiet and well decorated. Very nice vibe especially with the water view.

This was my husband and I first time going. The atmosphere alone took my breath away. We reserved seating outside by the water and it was unreal. The server Drew took real good care of us. We will definitely be back. The crab dip and hush puppies were good, the only thing it was lacking was more spice (Just our preference). Our main meal was grilled salmon and the seafood platter (Forgot the actual name of the dish). Everything was good, mines was lacking a tad bit salt (again my preference) and my husband wanted a little bit more on his plate. It was a bit pricey, but overall a wonderful experience. The crème Brulé was the best we ever had. Thank you for the wonderful hospitality.

This location is beautiful as it is tucked away right off the water in Hopewell. The inside decor is stunning and well designed. The staff is great. Just to name a few people; Alex, Sarah, Ryan, and Tucker are all knowledgeable in their craft and assisted on both recent visits with making the experience great. Sunday Brunch provided a live Jazz band that played beautifully. 95% of what we ordered from the menu was delicious with an honorable mention going to the calamari and lemon ricotta pancakes. Overall, this ranks number one for me of the Bosthouses, with all being beautiful will providing their own individual charm and character.

★★★★☆ 4.0 Arien Hudson · Jan 2026

Great service, usually I go for lunch or early dinner to avoid crowds. Food was served quickly and taste great. Shrimp tacos as always were amazing. The crab dip was just ok and the hush puppies seem to have changed from previous years. The bread pudding was ok but the fried caramelized bananas was fantastic. I was not impressed with the chocolate cake with berries my daughter got.

★★★★★ 5.0 Joyclyn Kananen, REALTOR · Dec 2025

My sister and I ate here to celebrate her birthday. The view was spectacular and the restaurant was clean and well managed. We enjoyed mocktails, I had a cucumber mint something and she had a strawberry flavored mocktail. We enjoyed crispy brussel sprouts, avocado toast, chicken and waffles and a cookie dessert. I highly recommend, 10 out of 10!
