This spot is very nice. Especially for a warm sunny day (bring your sunglasses). Plenty of outdoor tables right on the marina. Water, boats and palm trees were a nice vibe. Service was great but the food and drinks fell a bit short. The Lycheello and the Peach Tavern weren’t the best drinks I’ve ever had in this category. But as far as apps you can’t ever go wrong with Calamari with the sweetness and spiciness of Thai chili sauce. The Brussels Sprouts were well dressed in balsamic but they were a bit overdone. The grilled octopus was great! I heard the oysters were great. As far as lunch goes the dry-rubbed ribs were bland. I guess I prefer BBQ sauce instead. The coleslaw was fancy but lacked flavor. And believe it or not the French fries lacked flavor. I dipped them in ketchup and it wasn’t your typical ketchup. It was more like plain tomato sauce. The tres leches looked great but were also lacking. However, the cheese cake was good and the cookie lava cake was great! Despite it all, I would come back and try other menu items. I did order outside my usual picks.

We enjoyed Beach Tavern for their chunky Maine Lobster with crunch celery on a toasted brioche bun (with a side of fries), paired with a crisp Sauvignon Blanc and pretty views of the Shrewesbury River. Friendly service and the beachy chic decor added to the experience. In the summer, they open up the back patio for alfresco dining, as well as their dock and dine area.

The place is really nice, decoration, table disposition and the views outside is beautiful. Our server was great too. Our dining room was only 25% full during our entire stay. We waited 20 minutes for a calamari appetizer and then 40 minutes for our entrees of just grilled and fried fish. No one came to our table to give us any explanation so I assume nothing extraordinary happened that caused our food to arrive so late and not as hot.
