The Boathouse Grille - Essex

A timely little place in the middle of Essex, MA. Beautifully decorated! The menu had a lot of variety to choose from. A bit pricey, but you get a LOT of food with your order so be ready to have lots of leftovers! Friendly service and all around a fun experience.

Fantastic service and meal! We got there for an early dinner and it was already packed at 5:20. No wait, just packed. The service was great! Our server, I wish I caught her name, was very attentive and personable. The deviled eggs are a must! My husband got the fried seafood plate (heaping) and I got the cobb salad with Buffalo chicken tenders. We didn't have room for dessert, but they looked delish! Thank you for the lovely service and meal.

My food was excellent! The beer was great.Hannnah our waitress was wonderful!!!

First time after many peeps telling me how good it is. It was excellent! The food and drinks were great and the portions were big! Great atmosphere and great staff. We had party of 6 and waited only 45 minutes Saturday night. We got the fish tacos, haddock tepori or something like that, fried clams, plus beet salad, mussels, and clam chowder. All were delicious and they pour a good Guinness! Highly recommend!

Simply great food! This time we had Haddock Tesoro and Shrimp Fra Diablo...both excellent!
