    Location view of water is nice, but parking is scarce. The food did not taste good and was inconsistent. Appetizers arrived at the same time of meals. Three of us ordered taco salad - all 3 looked very different ( one they forgot the lettuce). The waitress didn’t seem to think it was a big deal that the taco salad was only meat for one of us. Another persons has Jalepeno none of the others had any. The service was mediocre at best. One person arrived early in which they told her to come back instead of offering a seat at the bar. (even though 6 tables were open, and never filled while there. Water was not refilled, server seemed annoyed when we asked. One person ordered the spicy chicken sandwich. It was not spicy, and was lukewarm when arrived. Disappointing dining experience for the price. Would not recommend.

    We were the first patrons at noon when the restaurant open for lunch. Maybe they were not ready, but we were disappointed in the food and the value. We ordered a clamps casino pizza for $20 which when it arrived was no larger than a small pizza from a carry out. additionally, between 15% and 20% of the pizza did not have a topping on as the preparer only cover the remaining part of the pizza. The appetizer, which was served with the pizza, was a broken beer pretzel for $9. It was impossible to eat pretzel while warm and the pizza while warm since they were both served together. The tangerine flavored beer was very good, except with no price is listed on the menu, I was disappointed that a very small glass was $9. The service was very good and friendly. However, for the price we certainly expected more.

    View is nice, and it’s nice down town. Wouldn’t go back. Disappointed with the food, only a couple beers on tap. Not worth the price once so ever.

    I am a fan of five churches in new Britian, so we decided to take a drive out to Niantic to check out five churches by the bay. We wanted to like it but sadly we were disappointed. Our waitress was good but the food was not. I paid 20.00 for a burger and fries that came out in a basket like a kids meal!! My husband ordered the fish and chips and it was tasteless. There was no flavor to our food and the portions were very small. I’m sorry to say we were not impressed. We will stick to the original five churches.
