Seahorse Inn

I thought the service today was wonderful. The waitstaff was definately more then mediocre. I see some pretty harsh reviews regarding them and it’s possible that people are being a little excessive. I’ve been to this establishment more then a handful of times and the staff has always been helpful and polite.

This is one of my local watering holes, love that I can come by boat. Very reasonably priced, hand made chips are so simple and so good they arrive nice and hot. During the summer I bring my daughter here by boat and we sit outside to eat early in the afternoon.

I’m not even going to rate the food which wasn’t even mediocre. The service was AWFUL!!! Extremely slow. I will never come here again. Out of the hundreds of restaurants we have ate at this is by far the worst and slowest service.

I frequent this place a lot, and it is a great place to kick back and just have some fun. The food is very good here, and comes in large portions. Try the crab wings (wings with Old Bay) or the taco salad — yummy.
It is a local watering hole, but a very friendly atmosphere for everyone. Kids are welcome, but as the evening progresses, best to leave them at home. Really there’s not been a pattern to what night of the week is «hopping», just depends on who pops in and what’s going on. Some nights are dead, which is fine if you want to kick back, other nights it is jam packed and crazy, which can be fun also! Best advice is to stop back on a few occasions before you really give this place a thumbs up or down. There’s also an outdoor deck and bar, and a downstairs with some new renovations, and a horseshoe league during the warm weather!

Found this place by accident while driving through the area, but there are lots of reasons you could choose to go here. We ordered a bevy of fried foods, and they were all competently done. Nothing fantastic, but it all came out hot and crisp, and everything was satisfying. The least pleasant were the crab fritters, but I blame myself for ordering crab fritters in the land of crabcakes.
Anyway, the overall experience was a very good one, because it’s a neighborhood joint by the water with really friendly staff. You know that weird feeling you get when you walk into a place for locals and you think they are all staring at you? Well, since the bar occupies the whole middle part of the restaurant, and since everyone at the bar is a middle aged white guy who looks like he owns an unpretentious boat at the marina but for some reason has time in the middle of a weekday afternoon to hang out at a bar, everyone really IS looking at you when you walk in. But then they just go back to drinking beer and chatting with each other. The momentary tension subsides, and once you are seated, you turn into a local too simply by interacting with the friendly waitress.
There are lots of tv screens around with sports and news. Drink specials and shrimp specials on the menu accompany bar type food. The set up looks to me like the place is probably hopping in the evenings during the warm months of the year, since the outdoor deck overlooks the water and the area for patrons spills down the steps into an open space with more chairs. Everything is colorful like in a typical beachside restaurant, though this is really marina side. Further, the bathrooms are spacious, and that says to me that there must be patrons aplenty at night with the lights all aglow and the taps all aflow.
I wouldn’t make a special trip to go here, but if you happen upon it as we did, order a Natty Boh or a mixed drink, some bar food, and I think you’ll find it a nice place to just kick back with the locals.
