Haven’t been to City Island in over a decade. This trip reminded me of what I’ve been missing. Awesome daily lunch specials like Shrimp done how you like it with crab legs and a lobster tail for under $40 bucks!

Unapologetically if I don’t taste brine on seafood I am dissatisfied and disappointed. If I don’t taste brine then I think the worst.

Great service. Great strong drinks. Delicious food! I had the crab legs and lobster it was so much crab legs. Big thick crab legs that come out in one piece when you crack it open. So filling and satisfying.

I traveled with a group of seniors on a day trip. Each ordered what they felt was right for themselves. I ordered broiled Scallops and asked my server to give me the garlic sauce, it was perfect. My friend had the fisherman’s platter and said it was so much food. Before the meal started we had garlic bread. I had the Manhattan clam chowder with my meal. The Scallops came on their own platter and were cooked to perfection. After the meal we had dessert, I had coffee and chocolate cake with chocolate frosting. The server was very nice and answered all of our concerns with speed and grace. In my opinion.. this is a very good restaurant to bring a friend or family member for a memorable meal.

There for lunch. Cajun tuna was excellent but the order of snow crabs were old and smelled like ammonia! They went back twice! Settled on lasagna which was great. Salad was limp but chowders were good. Drinks good. Service was excellent. I would not return as I was there for seafood and was deeply disappointed based on reviews.

Another Bronx/city island classic. Seafood fried/ baked/ grilled, lots of bread and strong drinks. Been coming here since I was a kid. Throughout covid to present, the service has been consistent which keeps us going. Great spot for large groups and is very popular for Mother’s Day, graduations and the like. Dinners prepared for two is well worth it ! Valet parking- make sure to tip.
