My wife and I live just up the hill, so we felt we needed to see what this newest operation in this convenient and good-looking space was all about. We're also bocce fans. Much to our surprise, the food also turned out to be interesting and tasty and also a bit unusual. I was a little suspicious about the unusual combinations offered but tried the Korean tacos, thin slices of bulgogi spiced beef with fresh greens, which turned out to be both fun and tasty. The beer selection was vast and all was reasonably priced. The bocce is $5 per person playing.

Contemporary classic meets Golden Age opulent in the Vintage Room, 16 Bay View's spectacularly beautiful and surprisingly unstuffy lobby bar and small plates venue. An intimate and some say "sexy" destination bar for hotel guests and locals alike, this gl

My husband and I live locally and love to go to the Vintage Room for after-dinner drinks. Marcus is a fabulous bartender. We enjoy drinks on the cocktail menu (My Fair Lady is my favorite), but Marcus is also able to whip up a spontaneous cocktail when we are craving something different (ie: a spicy bloody mary or a coffee martini). Dear Katie C,Thank you for taking the time to contribute your review! Iâm so happy to hear that you have found a local comfort spot in Vintage Room that you return to. Marcus is certainly an artists within his craft with creativity that is always developing. Until next time! Cheers,Erick AndersonGeneral Manager

If you are looking for that Maine Lobster experience..do not come here. It is obvious that the kitchen is clueless and the staff could care less.The food here is horrible. The lobster dinner came with corn that was spoiled....no lie....rotten kernels evident on just about every piece.Or how about cracking open your lobster and having smelly green liquid exploding onto your dish.....doesn't go good with the butter.I don't think they know how to properly cook a lobster. I don't think they care.It was by far one of the most disappointing meals I have ever had.But lets face it....its basically a great atmosphere to have a few drinks with friends on the harbor. After a few drinks....I wouldn't care either.

Select a different restaurant. We visited this restaurant based on a suggestion from our hotel staff. We ordered pasta and meatloaf. It tool quite awhile and when the waitress brought out the pasta, she informed us that lasagna had been plated instead of meatloaf and that it would take a few minutes to fix the meatloaf so one of us was eating and one was waiting for the correct entree. It took 13 minutes to get the meatloaf. Our whole dinner experience was ruined.

Nice atmosphere. Okay food. Bit pricey. The problem is the bartender/waiter with the same first name as the town. He was so hopped-up I thought he was high. He was aggressive and inappropriate with me and other patrons. He was verbally abusive to the charming Russian waitresses in Camden on a cultural exchange. He had a full-on TEMPER TANTRUM in full view of the dining room because a table had not tipped him. He constantly barked orders loudly into the kitchen. Outside, where I sat after my meal, he came out, barked into his phone, then threw a lit cigarette, which bounced off a parked car and landed in the street. Is this really the face that Cuzzy's wants to present?

Silly us, we went for a sunset view dinner but the sun set behind us. Be smarter than us. Had mac n cheese w/lobster and it was good but not stellar (too runny for my preference). Good wine, wonderful service and decent prices. We went early and even made a reservation which at that early hour wasn't necessary. I'd go there again!

My husband and I have been coming here regularly for the past few years. We love the Happy Hour deals and the food is fantastic. Creative cocktails and the bartenders are entertaining and friendly. I consider this like an upscale Cheers bar where youâre more likely than not to meet great people and make new friends. The beer and wine list is extensive and inspired. I highly recommend this place!

First impressions of this busy seafood restaurant were good. Great buzz and lots of atmosphere. But we were underwhelmed with the food. My oysters were the smallest I have seen anywhere. The sauce with my wifeâs moules was insipid. All in all it wasnât value for money or a great gastronomic experience.

There comes a point where the trade-offs, like "views of the harbor," don't cut it. Sandwich size? Unless you order one with thick bread, and maybe even then, are so lacking in filling you will have to go eat elsewhere immediately afterward. Ten bucks for a scrawny sandwich with a load of potato chips, and an, admittedly good pickle, is too high a price. Except on the second floor, (when it's open), there is no waitstaff. So, you place your order at the high-barrier food case, pay at the register, sit at a table, wait for your name to be called, and then go pick up your order. And then you get the overpriced, scrawny sandwich with all those potato chips which you'll be glad for because you won't get full on the sandwich, no matter how slowly you eat it. And don't think it makes a difference whether you order a lot, or a little. The laissez-faire attitude extends to all.Staff is generally not welcoming. That, too, has been forgiven long enough. When enough is enough, it's enough. No more. A sit-down meal at a full-service restaurant isn't going to set you back much more and you don't have to do most of the work yourself. Just get desserts and coffee. Great desserts at a very good price, at least the other week. Note: TA needs to change back to the $ sign for ratings for cost levels, because "cheap eats" it certainly isn't. Self serve and casual, it is.

We waited half an hour to have dinner and the host was pleasant. Our server brought out our gourmet hamburgers like you order in the pub and the bun was so hard it should have been thrown out, not served! I told the waitress and she said she'd let the kitchen know. Really?? That's who send it out in that shape, they touched it and made a decision to serve it. I at the meat because I was especially hungry. We wouldn't recommend it given that approach to food overall.
