Three of us ate their yesterday, during the madhouse Sailboat Show. We
had a five-minute wait for a table at 12:30. Their only less-swillish
beer is Beck's Dark (they were out), Sam Adams, Leiny's Red, and
Killian's. We had relatively simple fare (crabcake sandwiches, flounder
sandwiches, their dolphin-shaped fries, cole slaw, dessert, beer), but
the food quality was quite good for that type of tourist trap. Our
waitress was a manager helping out during the holiday weekend - she was
very pleasant and efficient (and attractive). The view out over the wharf
was very nice on a beautiful, sunny day.

Sorry you had a bad experience, but it sounds like it was mainly due to
one sullen waitress. Did you inform the manager how little you enjoyed
the meal? 

It's not Vincenzo's, it's not Cantler's, but it's not bad for what and
where it is, just to be fair.
