We had been there before and I knew that is was a relatively
small restaurant that sometimes could have a long wait, especially on a Friday
night. Thankfully, they accept
reservations for parties of four or more.
I called in a reservation for six (my daughter would be joining us as
well) at 6:00 p.m. We arrived right on
schedule and were promptly seated in our reserved table.
Getting caught up in the company, I neglected to take lots
of notes about the dining experience but none the less, I will make a few
comments about our evening.
In addition to the menu, the Blue Point offers blackboard
specials. On the board was also a note
that a New England Clamboil was an additional $3.00 (due to the high price of
clams). The regular menu price was $17.00 so $20.00 for a clamboil was still
not a bad price. Both my daughter and I
decided to get the clamboil. However,
when the waitress came to take our orders, she told me they were out. Very disappointed! My daughter had a plan B to order the Nicky’s
Marguerita Pizza ($9.50). This pizza had
alfredo sauce, sliced tomatoes, roasted garlic, parmesan cheese and freshly
chopped basil. I didn’t have a plan B so
I made a quick decision to have the Baked Seafood Casserole (scrod, scallops,
and stuffed shrimp all in one casserole) for $17.00.
My husband ordered the Meat Pie dinner ($9.50), my
son-in-law ordered the large Fish and Chips ($10.00), to share with his mom, and
his mom opted for the Crab Cakes appetizer for $6.50 (she planned to have a
little bit of her son’s fish and chips).
I didn’t personally taste everyone’s food, but they all said
that they enjoyed their meals. Based on
appearance, everything was as expected.
Nothing remarkable, but nothing bad, either.
We’ll need to visit again so I can give a more accurate
review – and hopefully have that Clamboil that I’m still craving!
