  • I don't know, but c'mon dude, you know you should have made reservations for your wife's birthday dinner. :wink:
  • What day of the week was it? they close Mondays.

    It was yesterday (sunday) and according to their hours sign & their phone message - they are open 7 days a week.
  • Hmm...wouldn't be the first time. They're very inconsistent with hours. I usually call ahead.
  • I consider the Fish Camp to be pretty overpriced.

    Carnivore has a good point. If you were married to my sister-in-law, who damands star treatment on her birthday, wedding anniversary, and every day in between, you'd be a deadman posting.

    Unless you're making a reservation, calling ahead only to confirm that their sign is correct is too much to think about.

    Is anyone reading what I write? THEY DON'T TAKE RESERVATIONS!

    Plus my wife was disappointed with the fact that they were closed - but shes not a crazy person - she knows its not my fault. We'll go another time (as long as they aren't closed for good...which IS WHY IM ASKING! Does any one know what their deal is/was/will be?...close parenthesis)
  • Every once in a while, I've tried to go on a Sunday night and have found them closed. I don't think they're closed for good, though; we were there earlier last week...
  • Follow Up: We went tonight and had a great meal - as always. They had a special - chowder & Lobster Roll & Wine/Beer...$20!!!! DEAL!

    I asked the waitress about the night they were closed and they were having their holiday party - fair enough, just a little sign saying "sorry, closed for holiday party"

    Anyway...mystery solved! You go Nancy Drew!

    Red Lobster does not take reservations either, so be careful if you go there next year.

  • Yeah, you think you got problems. Forget The Fish Camp, Blue Water Grill, Blue Ribbon, and City Crab. I can't even get into Red Lobster. A few shameless individuals and I had coupons for lobster tails, were informed that Red Lobster does not take reservations, went to Red Lobster and could not get in -- the place was jam-packed with a wait over two hours.

    Sweet.

    Any idea whether that was just that night in particular or if it's a regular Tuesday night deal?

    No idea. But it was a great deal.

    At least you goto to eat that lobster - did you wear the plastic bib?
  • What's you're favorite/worse dish at Fish Camp? I was hoping to treat myself to a meal there, but I never knew if they were really good or not. They did seem kinda pricey, but I love seafood so I'm willing to pay for great fresh fish.

    <oIIII-<
  • I thought the lobster roll was excellent and loved their french fries--they had the old bay spicing on them, hard to find in the city.
  • Here is another vote for the lobster roll. The grilled baby octopus appetizer is very nice too. I have generally had good experiences with the appetizers, but the main courses (with the exception of the lobster roll) have been more hit-or-miss.

    The lobster roll is great. Its "market priced" so, sometimes its a little bit of a shock when the check comes. altough, maybe check it out during the week - we got that great deal on a tuesday.

    If you want the old bay seasoning on your fries you have to request it - its a nice touch!
  • I find Mary's to be hit and miss. Some times the food is pretty good, other times it's average. The service seems to be consistently good. I like their lobster knuckles and steamers. They certainly beat Randazzo's. The seafood on City Island is just plain disastrous. Here's hoping for a good Dingleberrie's.
