Cheerful family-owned spot with year-round deck seating dishing up hearty portions of comfort fare.

The food was very good overall, with generous portions and fair, moderate pricing. I ordered the Haddock Oscar ($26.99), which came as a large broiled haddock topped with crab meat, hollandaise sauce, asparagus, and breadcrumbs. The flavors were solid, but my only complaint was the pool of buttery oil at the bottom of the dish.
Service was friendly and attentive, and portions across the board were impressive. We sat on the bar side, which was a bit noisy — but that’s to be expected. Overall, a good meal with strong value and a welcoming atmosphere.

We frequent this place see as though my mom lives in the area. Whenever I come from Milton, Massachusetts, I like to come and get some great seafood and awesome muscles a little neck.. to my surprise the muscles are now loaded with yellow peppers. They give it too much of a tangy flavor. I could barely taste any chorizo in it. We both ordered the seafood boil, substitute the rice for the potatoes.. the red Bliss potatoes were served hard and cold. They took it back with no problem. The beats have no flavor at all. I have had them before and love them. Mom had zucchini it was flavored really nice with garlic. The bread was impeccable with garlic lightly toasted, and butter. The seafood broiled casserole. Mom had a whole fillet of haddock underneath on top that came with shrimp and scallops. When I received mine, I had a quarter of the haddock underneath so I was extremely disappointed. They were extremely nice to take it back in the chef made me a new one.! I also had a cappuccino martini that was really good
Sarah and Lily were extremely accommodating and friendly great servers !
Forgot to mention it is winter and as we’re eating, there’s tons of flies

I’ve been coming to the Gateway for years and it’s very unfortunate but the food has slipped a lot. I never thought it was great but they used to have a banging burger and the fish n chips are fine. The burger I liked they took off the menu. Ah well, so I started ordering the kids fish n’ chips bc I don’t need an adult size. Never had an issue and then the last time I was there I was upcharged $3 for ordering the kids size. Never happened before and it won’t happen again bc I’m done. The menu is smaller, the portions are smaller, the food is mediocre at best. There are too many other places around to bother going back. It’s a shame bc we enjoyed the bartenders and trivia night. Seems they went cheap on everything while raising prices so that’s that.

I went in for lunch before work on Sunday 11/16. I arrived around 1:40pm and was seated right away in a corner near the bar. After looking over the menu and conversation I realized that it had been about ten minutes and nobody had stopped by the table. I gave them another five minutes to see if I would be acknowledged. Unfortunately nothing. I got up and walked out. The hostess on the way out smiled and told me to have a nice day. I stepped back in really quick to get the managers name, and she seemed a little nervous or confused. I told her it was for my review and she just waved at me. That was my first impression of this place. I know that nobody really cares and customer service isn’t what it used to be, but really? They couldn’t care less if I ever came back, so I won’t. I was really hoping to try the food because the menu looked really good, unfortunately I left and got my uniform on to get to my shift skipping lunch all together. On a positive note, I have no complaints about the food, or even the service, because there wasn’t any.

We ordered fried calamari pretzels and steak egg rolls as appetizers fried calamari came with no marinara sauce asked for marinara sauce. Never arrived for the amount of money. You only got a small bowl of calamari. Not very many egg rolls. We’re supposed to be steak egg rolls with some aioli sauce. Just had some sweet chili sauce and it was just ground beef and the Bavarian pretzels were good. Wasn’t cheese sauce though. It was some kind of white creamy Sutton. The lobster roll was magnificent. The hamburger was a hamburger. What do you expect? You want a hamburger? You get a hamburger. You know the clams strips a little tough little aftertaste chicken sandwich, The chicken sandwich was good. I heard my grandson said it was nice. Macaroni and cheese look like a box of Kraft, macaroni and cheese. Nothing special there and the fish and chips were good. The service was lacking

I have to say, I expected more. I ordered the fried chicken Mac and cheese and it tasted burnt. I’m not sure what it was but it had a bad taste. I asked the waitress if I could have something else instead and she seemed annoyed. She also didn’t say you’re welcome whenever we said thank you. She didn’t introduce herself when she got to the table and we didn’t feel very welcomed. We came from out of town because we saw that this place had pretty decent reviews, but I wasn’t impressed. I switched the Mac and cheese for the Alfredo flatbread and it was also just okay.

Exceptional food, but slow service. I don’t recommend going if you’re in a rush. The food here is terrific. They have a wonderfully diverse menu and very creative specials. They’re all delicious!
Where they fall short is the service. Every server I’ve had has been great, but they always seem understaffed (not the servers fault). During our last lunch visit on a Wednesday, it appeared as though there was one server for the entire restaurant, plus the bar tender. This was for both the outside and inside dining areas.
After you sit down, it generally takes about 15 minutes before a server comes to greet you. I recommend ordering everything at once, because it’ll be about 20 minutes between visits.
That being said, if you’re not in a rush, enjoy!

I ate here with some friends and we shared some of the dishes, so it was fun to be able to taste several different items. The lobster ravioli was delicious, but it was a little bit light on the actual ravioli. The pasta with mussels was probably my favorite dish, I think it is either seasonal or it was a special the day we went in. The tuna poke was very good, but the rice was just OK… keep in mind that of all of the ingredients in this item, the rice is probably the least important! Still worth mentioning though. Overall a very good experience!
