A solid restaurant in Mystic. Their clam soup is the best I’ve had! Lots of good flavors! The beet salad was delicious and they kindly split it for us. The seafood pasta was good but a little heavy. I wasn’t expecting it to have a cream base. It did have lots of seafood in it

Came in here to have some food and drinks while enjoying downtown Mystic! Sat in a booth in the bar area and was immediately greeted by the waitress who was friendly and stayed on top of things the entire time as well as the support staff who also came by the table. Everything here is made from scratch and they use local seafood and even tell you about it and where it came from! The chilled shrimp is the best we’ve ever had! The clam chowder was extremely delicious and tasted very authentic and hit the spot so we even ordered a second cup! We did try a lobster roll as it’s a popular menu item however it wasn’t for us, probably just our preference. The bread was good on the roll, again, just our preference so if you like Lobster try it! All the drinks were good and they had a large selection. Even the margarita had flavor of the day options, I tried today’s flavor which was passion fruit! Very clean restaurant and friendly staff! Highly recommend! We’ll be back!

Excellent! We tried this spot for dinner while visiting the town for the day. We were able to get seated right away. Our server was great. I definitely wanted to try seafood since we were on the east coast. I had clam chowder and the scallops. Both were delicious! The scallop dish was seasoned perfectly, very generous portion and I especially loved the corn risotto it was served on. Highly recommended this spot!

This place is 5 star all the time. I go here with my daughter after Thanksgiving. It is always good. I got fried scallops and she got prime rib French dip. Too full to eat dessert. This place gets very busy so go early for lunch. Nice atmosphere and very clean.

Very nice atmosphere at this restaurant. Waitress was very friendly and food was very reasonably priced. The wings were ok however my son loved the Mac and cheese.

The Mariner is a fantastic spot in Mystic, CT! It’s conveniently located near the old seaport and right in the heart of town. The seafood here is excellent and reasonably priced. I started with the clam chowder, which was rich, flavorful, and packed with hearty chunks of clams. I also had the lobster roll, which I’d easily rank in my top 10—fresh, delicious, and full of flavor. I only wish it had just a little more lobster and butter, but overall it was still a great value. My fiancé ordered the swordfish, which was also incredibly fresh and well-prepared. Overall, The Mariner is a must-visit when in Mystic, but definitely make a reservation since it gets very busy

Nice place!, I was visiting for a reunion, it had been 11yrs since I was in the area. Although I missed some of my old favorites that have now closed, I found a new one! I had the Lobster roll & Clam Chowder, along with a Old Fashioned. Freshest lobster roll I’ve ever had!, would have liked a little more buttery roll but it was OUTSTANDING! The Clam Chowder was also Excellent…great flavor, not too creamy, and just the right mix of vegetables and Clams. Service was great,friendly and I was not over attended nor under attended. It did feel like I was being hidden because I’m a middle aged man and was by myself (I’m used to it, but expected better from this type of place). The atmosphere was friendly, and the dining room guests seemed to all be enjoying themselves. Definitely a place I’d go back to next time I’m in the Mystic CT area.

Exceeded expectations. The clam chowder was delicious. Fish and chips was very good. The mussels were amazing. Must have if you like mussels. Oysters tasted very fresh. Derek was attentive and we definitely enjoyed the visit… if I am in the area again I would not hesitate to stop back in.

Stopped in Mystic on our way to Maine. We had read to try Connecticut lobster roll to compare to Maines. We stopped in Mystic, wandered around and stopped at The Mariner to have a light dinner and to try a lobster roll. We got the New England clam chowder, a wedge salad and the lobster roll.
We were seated immediately outside per our request. We were greeted immediately by our server. Our drinks and clam chowder came out super super quick.
The rest of our food was pretty quick as well. Even with them being fairly busy.
Everything tasted amazing, our server was on top of everything. Would absolutely come back!

Absolutely outstanding! The Mariner is hands down one of the best spots in the area for anyone who loves top-quality food and a great dining experience. My girlfriend Karina and I stopped in during the afternoon and had an amazing time enjoying their happy hour from 4pm to 6pm—the deals were unbeatable and made everything even better.
We ordered several items off the happy hour menu and were seriously impressed. We each got a smash burger, and they were juicy, flavorful, and perfectly seared with that ideal crust. The fried mozzarella was golden and gooey, and the 6 oysters were super fresh and chilled just right. Every bite hit the mark.
To kick things off, we each had a happy hour drink—I got a vodka soda with a splash of pineapple juice, and Karina had a vodka soda with a splash of blood orange juice. Both were refreshing and perfectly made. Later on, we also tried their specialty cocktails: Karina had the Riverside 75—light, crisp, and elegant—while I went with the Summer Break, which was fruity, smooth, and exactly what I needed to unwind.
We also shared the Prime Rib French Dip entrée, and it was incredible—tender, flavorful meat on a perfectly toasted roll, served with a rich au jus that brought it all together. It was the perfect dish to split and made the afternoon feel even more special.
The local seafood overall was incredibly fresh, the pasta was clearly homemade and full of flavor, and the prime steak we tried was cooked to perfection. You can tell the kitchen takes real pride in what they serve.
The music playing in the background really added to the vibe—it was relaxing and enjoyable without being too loud. It created a great atmosphere that made the whole experience even better.
And a special shoutout to our server, Michelle, who was absolutely perfect. She was friendly, attentive, and made sure everything went smoothly without ever feeling rushed. She really made us feel welcome.
The whole place had a warm, laid-back energy that made Karina and I want to stay even longer. If you’re looking for a perfect afternoon spot with amazing food, drinks, music, service, and value, The Mariner is a must.
