This was my first visit to the marina several weeks ago and I was very impressed. The floor to ceiling windows offer an incredible view of the marina from everywhere in the restaurant and gives the place a feeling of serenity. Some of the food I tried would rival some of the best Manhattan steakhouse and seafood restaurants. The food was perfectly prepared and plated beautifully
The seafood tower as an appetizer was very impressive with right off the boat fresh tasting clams, oysters, very large shrimp and lobster. The tuna tartare had a very unique and delicious sauce and was mounded on an absolutely delicious fried disk. My other two stand out appetizers were the seafood salad and, a surprise, what they call an Italian eggroll With really delicious Italian red sauce. If you are a lobster bisque lover this lobster bisque was to die for. The Châteaubriand was cooked exactly as ordered, medium rare with house made barbecue sauce and Demi glace which were both excellent with a roasted garlic bulb creamed spinach and mashed potatoes.
The very fresh angry red snapper came on top of broccoli rabe and was topped with very fresh premium crab meat. The best part of this dish for me was the ring of gnocchi around the fish that were like little pillows of softness. The variety of desserts are homemade and all were delicious. If you happen to be there on a nice day and the tiki bar is still open, it is definitely worth sitting out there for a cocktail and a dessert and coffee. I can’t wait to go back there in several weeks for my birthday.

Haven’t been at the marina since 2012. Thought it would be a nice place to catch up with a friend I hadn’t seen.
The appetizer was shared , crab meat, artichoke and spinach dip with tortilla was good. Our main course wasn’t seasoned, very bland, the chicken was raw and pasta soaking in a mixture of water and tomato sauce.
Reservations were for 2:15-2:30. We were feeling pushed out due to a party coming in that needed that area. We learned of this upon arrival. No advance notice was given otherwise we would have changed the date. We decided to leave asap taking our dinners with us. I cooked the chicken at home, pasta was drained but beyond repair, the soaking caused it to become gummy. Our bill with tip came to $162.00. Staff were kind, view calming. Very frustrating how our afternoon turned out.

One of the best Italian spots on the island AND good views ? It’s hard to find a place that does both but this one hits the mark. Growing up on SI there have been so many parties and dinners here especially during the summer for the tiki bar, the drinks are well made for the price! I would definitely recommend if you haven’t been !

Food was mediocre. We ordered the dry aged rib eye steaks but the meat was more chewy/ striated than rib eye cuts should be. Minimal marbling. Mashed potato was lumpy and looked microwaved. Broccoli was bland and seemed like it was simply steamed. The service was also mediocre- it is apparent they’re not bothered about hospitality and “wooing” customers as the location is the main attraction.
In summary, the price tag is literally for the beautiful waterside view and location. The restaurant has large glass windows so no matter where you sit you get a great view and feel of the natural sunlight.

We started with the dragon shrimp and meatballs. Both were great! The shrimp was our favorite but meatballs were really tasty as well. They also gave us bread with the sesame crackers I love. Then we got the pasta di vincenzo and the short rib. The eggplant pasta wasnt our favorite but not bad. The short rib was very good but tasted a bit like stew meat not what i expect from short rib. Would still get it again just know to expect a more stewy short rib. For dessert we got the creme brule and apple tart. The creme brulle was really good but the apple tart crust wasnt our favorite

The food is great, never had any issues, the servers all great as well.
The only problem that I have and that’s why im taking 2 starts off, cause the cocktails are literally not a restaurant level. Ice, not tasty at all. Wish they would add some nice cocktails to the menu and make it as good as in some places, not just an ice + orange juice.

This staple restaurant is a classic in Staten Island. Came to the tiki bar to sit outside and catch the breeze. Our waitress (wish I remembered her name) was super friendly gave great recommendations and followed through with checkups. We started with calamari (a little cold) and the lobster and carb sliders (no food presentation) then ordered the tuna steak and salmon, they were cooked well and taste was good, they were able to substitute the sides. I didn’t like the paper plates and plastic cup service. This is a tiki bar so there was a crowd on the younger side but played the music at a decent volume for patrons to hear one another during dinner.

My family and I went for Christmas Eve and although we had to wait a bit, it was truly worth the wait. Plus it’s always a great sign when the place is packed and everyone is enjoying themselves. We sat in the bar area for some drinks and were seated at a beautiful window facing the marina. Appetizers were delicious, especially the white arancini with honey, and the squid was beyond fresh and tender. Best squid I have ever eaten. I ate the Christmas menu special seafood fra diavola, and enjoyed every bite even the next day which I took home because portions are very generous which I appreciated. My mother ordered the seafood risotto… delicious. I must shout out the bartenders as well who made us delicious drinks and the servers who checked on us often. We had a great time and would come back again to enjoy.

I have been to this restaurant several times with family and friends and I can’t get enough of it. Eddie is the manager of this restaurant who is so awesome, accommodating, friendly, and attentive. All of the waiters are all great. The ambience has a great scenic view of the water front, the drinks are nice and strong the way I love it, food is fresh, seasoned and delicious, the service is fabulous and the overall environment is relaxing and comforting. The price range for meals is reasonable especially with the cost of seafood today. Parking is not hard to find whether your parking in the actual lot or off the street. For party size great than 3, I would definitely suggest making a reservations for meal times after 5 pm. Prior to that you could walk in and be seated with a table.
