Customer Reviews
The service is stellar. The ambiance is upscale yet comfortable. The food is not quite as good. We ordered raw oysters 4/5, fried calamari with banana peppers 3/5 (more calamari less banana peppers, even though the peppers was the tastiest part), chicken sandwich 5/5, and catch of the day scallops with risotto 4/5, and Dubai cheese cake 3/5. Good cocktail, beer, and wine choices.
Had to eat here twice on our time on the island because we wanted our last dinner to be just as good as our first! 10/10 food. Everything we tried was incredible. Tried the two specials. Scallops and fluke as well as the corn side. Preparation was great, flavor wasn’t lacking. All dishes were 10/10. The second night my fluke specifically lacked as much sauce as I had the first but it was still very flavorful (posted both pictures and realized how much bigger the second fish was to the first night 😅) . The portions for the fluke are HUGE. You will not be disappointed eating here.
This place is clearly very popular because there was a queue outside the restaurant before it opened for 5:30 p.m. dinner service on a very rainy Saturday night. Once open, the restaurant quickly filled up with diners. Tables tend to be closer together because of how busy it gets, and there are a lot of hard surfaces, meaning things can get a little loud. Service was the right level of attentive: staff were very friendly and they were good about clearing plates and utensils when it’s clear diners are done eating. The daily fish specials are posted on a chalkboard inside. Overall, the food was very good. The buffalo brussel sprouts with whipped blue cheese were very good but for $18? Feels steep. My husband enjoyed his tuna, which was served like an elevated poke bowl and had Asian influe
LOVE this spot. The food was amazing! And Molly, our waitress, was amazing. Our drinks came out super fast and the food was delicious!!!!! Highly recommend the Port Hunter.
Great experience. I’m vegan and they provided me with many options (which aren’t all listed on the menu - so feel free to ask). They ran out of high chairs, and made the effort to go across the street to their sister restaurant to get one for our daughter. Service was excellent and food was delicious. 10/10
