Mariners Harbor On The Hudson

Food:[2] • Service:[9] • Atmosphere:[10]

• Location and feeding the ducks.
• Food and service.

“The only reason me & my husband went was because we had gift certificates to use. The first time we went, the service was as terrible as was the food. I don't know what kind of spices they use. Maybe they just make the recipe up as they go to cook which isn't bad if it tastes good at the end but it doesn't. The second time we went was just a few days ago the service was wonderful but the food was no better than the first time. My husband ordered mussels with fries thinking a side order of fries, but they put them on top of the mussels. Strange!”

• Nothing at all positive.
• Waitress rude. Food we ordered was never delivered.

“Worst meal I have ever had and the prices are crazy. Trying to turn a pig's ear into a silk purse perfectly describes this place. Waitress was rude, brought the wrong food to our table 3 times and then got upset when we told her to forget the meals we would pay for our drinks and be done with it. Later found out from another waitress that this person is the one in charge. Will never go back not even if the meal is free.”

• Feeding the ducks.
• Everything else!

“Terrible, bad & never again! The food is over priced. The 7 dollar soup was just flour and milk. The salad was wilted and warm, my lobster was tiny and over cooked. The chef was outright rude! Never ever again! The only good thing about the dinner was sitting outside feeding the ducks and fish which they had no old bread for. Bad all the way around.”

• The wine was good but then all they had to do was pour it into a glass.
• Food was horrible.

“In the last decade, theyve done a good job when I've been there and the fact that the restaurant is right on the water (the Hudson River)and you can feed the fish your bread scraps and sit out on the deck and watch the boats, has always been a plus. The meal we had May, (18th or 19th) 2009 was without a doubt the worst meal I've had in a restaurant, except for one other time when I ordered lobster at a different restaurant and it had such bad freezer burn, I couldn't eat it. The salads were 8 or 9 green leaves, a tomato and a bit of dressing. I ordered calamari fritters (expecting chunks of calamari deep fried) and something with the texture of hush puppies, over fried, and near burnt was delivered. They were sent back to the kitchen. The soup came to us with a thick scum on the top, as if it had been sitting under warming lights for several hours and was barely lukewarm. We ordered lobster bisque and a rusty, red soup was delivered that tasted nothing like lobster bisque and a lot like Campbells tomato soup with some other kind of food processor beaten vegetable. I sent it back to the kitchen. The beet salad was very disappointing. Beets were stringy and I believe they were likely dehydrated beets, rehydrate an hour before the meal - chewy and flavorless. My daughter ordered a filet mignon that had a strip of gristle down the middle. It was mediocre for a filet mignon. The restaurant was understaffed with two wait staff for tables inside and out. Service seemed slow although Im sure they were working as fast as they could. We saw other tables leaving food and my daughter heard one woman saying, as she pushed her salad around on her plate with her fork, that her chicken Caesar salad was "Okay, nothing great."”

• Location by the river.
• Food and service.

“The menu is very limited with exotic names of items and no explanation of what they are. The food was not that good. The service was terrible and the cost was worse for what we got! It used to be a nice place to eat but my family and I will not go there again.”
