Coast Guard House Restaurant Review

Went there for a late lunch yesterday and had such a great time. The vibe was great, the manager (or owner?) on duty asked how we were doing which is always nice, and the food was great. Our server, Cameron, was very attentive and personable which made the day even better! I had the deconstructed fish tacos and they tasted great. I ll be back soon!

Amazing fopd, service and views. One of the best meals ever

Atmosphere excellent.
Waitress good.
Food mediocre, but presentation fine.

This is the place my daughter asked for when she wanted a fancy dinner for her birthday. They did not disappoint! I'm writing this during COVID but the Coast Guard House had a wonderful outdoor setup for social distancing. Beautiful private "igloos" for each group! Honestly, they were so cozy, I hope they keep them after the pandemic ends.

The food is delicious. They were able to make my dinner to order as I have a bunch of allergies. I had been craving scallops and the pan seared scallops here we're delicious. My daughter and her friend split lobster mac and cheese and the duck entree. Something new for each of them and they were quite pleased.

I highly recommend making a stop here if you are on vacation in Rhode Island.

Mmmmmm Calamari, pan roasted scallops. No way you should go somewhere else

Walked in for lunch one month ago...we got seated but no waitress came to our table. We waited a good 15 minutes. The place looks like it needs a good cleaning. Maybe during season it's different... don't know otherwise. We left.

Got a table outside in front of water with no wait and no reservation.

Good food and drinks. Killer view!! I'll be back for sure

Went here last week. They served my water in a plastic disposable cup with a plastic straw, outside. So, where do they think these things end up when a gust of air takes them from the table. I didn't ask for a proper reusable glass because I didn't want to insult my host (and my plastic cup would have ended up in the trash). But, Coast Guard House - WAKE UP AND SMELL THE PLASTIC IN OUR OCEANS!!! China does not take our recyclable trash any more, and by the year 2050, there will be more plastic than fish in our oceans. Consumers and customers of this restaurant: please let your server know that you do not want a straw or a plastic cup.

Enjoyed dinner with my wife and in-laws. Excellent views. Street parking.

Beautiful atmosphere, friendly service and amazing white fish!

The Lobster Tamale appertizer was so delicious, the music selection was fantastic & you really can't beat the view at sunset. Great spot for a 1st date

Thoroughly enjoyed all aspects of our visit to the CGH! Waitstaff, food and the view were all impeccable --- can't wait to return! Out of 5 stars, CGH rates a 20!! Well done & thank you!!!

Awesome seafood, clam chowder was great. The atmosphere was very good. Service was great.

Food was good, waitress was very attentive. Will definitely go again.

The best lobster roll you will ever have. Beautiful view.

I ate here a few months ago. The staff was very friendly, and the food was delicious. I would definitely recommend this place for a quick bite to eat or drinks.

Outside seating with view of beach and Rocky surf. Live music good drinks and relaxing atmosphere.

Good food, good service. The view was amazing!!!!!!!!!! Took a large group. We had some drinks out near the water before dinner, it was amazing. Looking forward to going again. I do recommend this place for small or large groups. Enjoy your dinner!

Awesome place to dine.... Good food and a great view

Delicious food, amazing food and great service! Call for reservations!

Georges Bank Scallops were good..but everything else on the plate SUCKED!!
The lima beans were RAW and the onion was whole and raw. The plate only looked pretty but all i could eat was the scallops. Go for the VIEW and cocktails..because for $28..only
4 Scallops is a RIP OFF!!

A very nice restaurant clean good customer service.

The food is ok...table full of obnoxious kids behind us (at 7:00) was a huge bummer. Adults were sitting a table away from their kids, seriously! Would've stayed for another cocktail but no thanks.

Great date night spot especially in the summer when you can sit on the balcony and watch the ocean

Great food, great views, great service. A little on the pricey side, but it's arguably the nicest restaurant in South County. This place gets super packed during the Summer, but you basically need to visit this place if it's your first time in Narragansett.

A visit to Narragansett is not complete without a stop here!

Food was phenomenal as well as the view! We also had the sweetest waitress! Can't wait to go back!

Amazing service and food. I've lived in RI 26yrs and had never been here.

Patio dining was great. Tables well spaced, cover from the sun and wind but still keeping the ocean view. The food was fantastic and the service was wonderful.

Great place. Good good. Love the bed. Just a little hard to find a paring spot. Especially in the summer season

I had lunch which turned into dinner at the Coast Guard House. Hostess was very friendly and accomodating. Restaurant had a great location and really good food. My experience was strictly with our server. We were seated at 3:15 and it took 15 minutes before I asked another server who was our waitress so I could order a drink. This forshadowed the service we received. It continued to spiral and an hour and a half later we received our entrees and mine was incorrect. Instead of being sincerely apologetic, she tried to say I ordered the wrong entree because dinner was being served and not lunch anymore. The manager offered his apologies and I had to eat my entree after everyone else was finished. I was disappointed that my dinner was not taken off our bill and we were offered a complimentary dessert. By this time, I wanted out of there. I have never received such an attitude from a server who obviously was not doing her job. My sister has been there often and never received the service we did that day. Note to manager, relieve her of her duties!

The view alone was $$$$. Followed by huge succulent Lobstah tails, too die for ! The entrees were equally impressive and the staff was Aces. Top of all time TY CGH.

Very good restaurant in what is a dirth of good restaurants in South County (Wakefield especially - mediocrity rules!!!)!!!

They have fresh seafood and spectacular ocean views while dining! Great experience for a special day to remember!

Always a great dining experience...drinks are great too. Have awonderful dinner with fabulous views inside or out (weather permiting).

Could not get a burger cooked rare, sent it back twice and they would not accept an American Express gift card, won't be back soon

We had a fantastic dinner in one of the igloos tonight! The views were incredible, the food was delicious and the igloo was cozy.

Great place to be close to the water. Great service plus food is always good.

I had a lovely hot drink and meal listening to and watching cold waves slam the frozen coast.

My daughter and I went here to celebrate some accomplishments. We were not disappointed. The food was delicious. The service was awesome. And of course, the ocean view was just beautiful. We look forward to returning, soon.

Service was professional throughout, great menu, very reasonable prices given the location, service and quality of the food. Daughter's medium skirt steak came out closer to well done. We mentioned it to the manager who had brought it out, but just as we did, my daughter said it was fine. He mouthed, "thank you" (ie, he knew they dodged a bullet on that one). Nevertheless, a perfect medium skirt steak materialized at our table a few minutes later.

Wife's scallop dish was flawless. It's easy to get perfectly cooked scallops in many places, it's not as easy to find them paired with anything as delicious as what they have here. Definitely recommended, and fairly priced at $26.

My swordfish was a generous portion paired with a zesty tomato gazpacho, very good.

Dessert was the coconut tres leche, also delicious.

Despite the restaurant being full, our water glasses never got below half full, very attentive service throughout. We'd go back in a flash.

Hostess was extremely rude when she stated-"it's an hour wait"

It was a muggy October day so we were able to sit outside with an amazing oceanfront view in front of us and a lovely fire behind us. The service was friendly and efficient. The food was excellent mostly, and by that I mean - everything we ordered except for the clam linguini definitely fell into that category. The oysters were fresh and clean; the scallops with grits and bacon jam was out of this world in flavor; the tomato beet salad was mouthwatering; both the clam chowder and the lobster bisque won our praises; and the steak on a bed of arugula was cooked perfectly. Unfortunately, the linguini dish just came up a bit bland in comparison. That's not to say it was bad but if the kitchen is open to suggestions, mine would be to add more garlic (because it is listed as such on the menu) and decrease the amount of pasta by at least a 1/4. The presentation of the dish was lovely, however, and we had a wonderful time. I'd go back in a heartbeat.

Another Rhode Island landmark must go-to. Swordfish paired with a Whalers pale ale on the patio was just the perfect lunch.

Great dinner and great service. Our waitress Meaghan was the best!!

Beautiful location. Very good food. Clean and efficient with friendly staff. Accessible. But limited parking and very pricey.

Great food. Great views. Love the ground level deck bar.

Delicious brunch no matter what I have ordered and generous portions.

I was here for a 'Girls' birthday lunch, there were 7 of us. Service was excellent and our waitress was very accommodating, as was the rest of the staff. Food and drinks were excellent and the view was to die for! It was a birthday party so we brought our own decorations and cake, which the staff had sliced and served for us no problem. I would highly recommend Coast Guard House

Very lovely views. And atmosphere is very nice. Food is ok. Overall a solidly ok restaurant by the bay

Was here for a wedding. Food was 'meh'. View of the ocean is great, but it is great from many other locations on this road.

Always a favorite. Best food and service good value, terrific setting right on the ocean.

The carrot ginger soup was wonderful as was the kale salad!

We have eaten here 3 times since the re-opening and have had great experiences. We loved everything that we tried and the staff are personable and knowledgeable. It really is worth going there, just for the view, both outside, of course, and inside! (This is relating to the dining room).

Outstanding seafood. Excellent service. Perched right on the rocky Narraganset shore with the best ocean view around.

the best place when in narrangansett... the food, service and setting is just something you can t describe... 23 yrs coming here and never disappoints. joseph catanzaro was our server today and went above and beyond. must go!

Popular place, staff is great beautiful view food very good. A little nutty busy at prime time, definitely recommend reservations

Food is good but our waiter was not attentive and seemed to have a chip on his shoulder. I asked for a drink and he never brought it. I won't go back again this summer

Beautiful views of the Atlantic ocean fun friendly staff. The lobster mac n cheese was amazing!!

Realy good food and an amazing view. There was a half hour wait to get seated so I suggest calling ahead.
