Our party of seven happened to get there eight minutes before the opening time, which is five pm. We were greeted by a gentleman who identified himself as the chef of the establishment, who told us we could sit wherever we liked. We chose the outdoor deck with a bar adjacent to one of the canals in Freeport, NY. We waited chatting among ourselves until the place was officially opened. The ambiance was great, Reggae music livening the vibes. The menu, while limited, had some interesting entrees like vegetable pasta that has cheese in it. Although I don’t drink alcohol, I found the mixed drinks rather expensive, even water was three dollars. This is the first restaurant where I’ve seen that. My wife and one other member of our party had Moscato, which was nicely chilled but both glass seemed to be poured from different brands, even though only Moscato was listed with no flavour varieties. For appetizers for my wife and I, I chose Jamaican spring rolls, they are two per serving, very tasty, spicy and full of flavour. She (my wife) couldn’t handle the heat, so I ended up eating both orders. She then ordered steamed Mussels paired with Marinara or roasted garlic sauce. All the flavour was in the garlic sauce. The Mussels were steamed but not seasoned. On to the main course, two of us chose the steamed red snapper with spring vegetables and rice and peas. Well steamed fish, yet all the seasoning seem to be within the head and the peas tasted of can from where they came. One of our party had stuffed salmon with shrimp, crab meat and roasted potatoes, for her the salmon was bland but the stuffing was delicious. Another had pineapple salmon, pan roasted with tangy pineapple sauce. His complaint was only the sauce had flavour, no seasoning on the salmon. A few more things, when the wait staff arrived,there was no introduction of themselves to let you know they would be hanging your orders/tables/party. And at the prices of the mixed drinks, they should be served in glasses or glass mugs. Last but not least, nice ADA restrooms, great interior set up, good looking bar. I hope everything I’ve addressed clarified the ratings I gave.

Let me just say the setting and view was nice. However the service was absolutely awful. First, my girlfriend and I weren’t greeted or welcomed by the hostess at all. Second, it took 1 hour and 15 minutes for our food to even come and there were only 5 other people in the restaurant. Our server didn’t ask once how our food was and didn’t even check up on us when it arrived at all. Pretty place, decent food, bad service.

Food taste as if it was place in microwave before bringing it out cause the meats was warm and the vegetables were cold. Wings taste as if it came from a store. Only had one waitress working while the other 3 sit around. As we enter there was no greeting and help was very hard to find.

Our waitress took our order. Never brought any water to the table. Several people came in after us and got their meal quickly. At one time, I had to ask another waitress to find mine. She never came back to check on my table after she gave us our food. The food was ok.

I came here for my homegirls birthday party (Wednesday). The food (which she cooked) was good as usual and the music was litt. The atmosphere definitely gives island vibes that’s laid back and enjoy. I’ve passed this place on the mile before and always liked the music, I’ll definitely go back to get a better vibe.

My daughter, Granddaughter and I stopped for a drink and bite to eat. We were quickly seated with a stroller. My daughter ordered Harry’s Hurricane as her beverage, but it was lackluster and was substituted for the rum punch. The waitress was very nice and accommodating. We ordered wings, and shrimp and fries. The shrimp was fresh and perfectly fried, but had no flavor, the fries were a little premature for my taste and the wings were good but also not very flavorful. Overall, it was an ok experience. The drinks were overpriced and could have had more liquor in them. With the competition on the Mile, I may or may not return.

This restaurant is located on the Nautical Mile. You can eat inside or outside while listening to music and watching the boats go by. Drinks (cocktails) were a little pricey, however they were made to perfection. Food was delicious. Plan on spending at least $100 for for 2

Went for a bday brunch. Had the soup, snapper and pasta–washed down with rum punch. Needless to say we were completely satisfied. Love this place–owner is chef and makes the food. He interacts with his patrons too. He’s had chef training for all over the globe and has brought this expertise to the Nautical Mile. I wholeheartedly recommend this establishment.

The food was terrible, the fish had a raw smell, real turn off! The jerk chicken was a bad BBQ. We went with a group of 10, I waited 45 minutes after everyone was served and ate. My meal was not served. After waiting for what seems like forever. Not wanting to be the only one eating, I cancelled the order to which the waitress explained she will take it off the bill! BTW excellent ambience and great music! I don’t normally write review however I’m doing this so the establishment can make the necessary changes to the food and services and to improve quality.
