I sat at the bar. Got the clams casino app…. perfect variation on the starchy classic.

Solid spot for breakfast and lunch. Food won’t blow you away but will definitely satisfy. Prices are a tad high but that’s inflation these days. Only real negative was the waitress swipes your card on an iPad at the table and stares at you while you chose your tip amount, not too comforting of a process. Still worth a visit if you’re in need of a meal on the cape.

My husband and I go here for breakfast every summer were in wellfleet and it never disappoints. Food is delicious, staff are friendly and welcoming, and seating both indoors and outdoors depending on preference. I got the special pancakes that day (banana and coconut), along with turkey sausage and a nutty fruit bowl, and my husband got an omlette, toast, and blueberry pancakes. Of course we each had to have a grand mimosa – delicious as always

We make a point to come to Van Rensselear’s every year on our Cape vacation, and it never disappoints! Delicious food, elegant drinks, and fantastic service. Our server Caroline was friendly, knowledgable, and attentive, and made the experience extraordinary. I had clam chowder, crispy duck, and creme brulee and they were perfect – I get the brulee every year and it’s always unbelievably good. Thanks to the kitchen and staff. Can’t wait to come back next year!

Staff is very accommodating. We didn’t get a chance to make a reservation and they were able to make it work for us which was really nice. Dinner service was excellent too, very attentive wait staff, especially Chris. He was an excellent waiter. Food was good, I enjoyed their potato crusted bluefish special. Dessert, Kahlua Toffee chocolate mousse good too!

We had a fabulous breakfast at this restaurant this morning! The staff is so attentive and friendly, and the food was impeccable. We will definitely be back to this restaurant for another meal, dinner, perhaps!

Had a good meal here with friends. The cocktails/martinis were delicious! The food was pretty good. Had the cauliflower appetizer which lacked a little flavor but was still decent. The bruschetta salad was pretty tasty but could have used a larger portion of mixed greens as it is sold as an entree salad. Would skip the garlic bread if I did it again. Overall the staff was very friendly and the food and drinks were good. Would definitely return!
