Wonderful home cooked quality food. Huge portions. You can order one meal and share. Complimentary outgrageous garlic bread and marinated olives /w mushrooms. Service is attentive. Outdoor seating over dock. All fish meals are recommended. We have not eaten meat here. Ceasar salad is just typical w/a distainct anchovie flavor.
The best seafood spot in city island. Great view.Best shrimp scampi every had. loved long island ice tea a lot.The serve is great.Great spot to bring the whole family.
Great views are what sells this place, average food and prices. Not sure I'd go back except that it's pleasant to watch boats dock, better restaurants that give you more.
The view is great. Food is tasty and not to expensive. Their pina coladas are to die for. City island lobster house is one of my favorite restaurant to visit out there..would recommend to anyone who enjoy sea food.

Wow! I struck gold when I went to this restaurant! A must go!!!! Not one bad meal in 16 visits taken guests all positive! Fresh food, excellent service, amazing portions, no wait, first restaurant on left after bridge. Enjoy guys! I never wrote a review till this one just had to tell people.
Pros: Best Food Consistently
Cons: Need more restaurants like this one!!!!!
From the moment you walk in you feel that the staff is really happy to see you. They treat everyone like family, especially if you ard dining with kids. The food is very fresh and the drinks are refreshing. I can't say enough about this restaurant except that I had dined in almost every other restaurant in City Island but for the past 4 years this is the only one that I now go to.
The only thing that I can say is that when spring/summer comes around I highly recommend dining on their waterfront deck. Sometimes there is a wait of around 1/2 hour for a table but it is well worth it.
Pros: BEST SEAFOOD & DRINKS
Cons: WAIT FOR A TABLE IN THE SUMMERTIME
I went with someone who saw an ad for the place on TV and was awed by the platters that were shown.. however, in reality, the plates were large but the portions skimpy. A lobster that was supposed to be a pound and a half appeared to be under a pound and my companions shrimp and prime rib combo was pricey, but only had 4 shrimp! Water glasses were not refilled and service was not great, however, our main waiter was friendly. Not worth the trip from anywhere.
Pros: Valet parking
Cons: Overpriced, small portions
