    We went for Thanksgiving and the food was absolutely delicious. The wait staff went above and beyond with their service. Our cocktails were well prepared and full of flavor. We ordered the crab artichoke dip and it was incredible. I felt like I was home with traditional Thanksgiving plate that I ordered for my main dish. Thanks again Skates on the Bay for a wonderful Thanksgiving.

    Amazing food with perfect execution and creative vibrancy. Great service paired with warm ambience enhanced our experience even more. Our favorite was the grilled pork with braised savoy cabbage, chanterelles, and pear purée. Perfectly juicy and seasoned, paired with the right amount of sweetness, acidity, and umami. Churros were also the best and most unique ones. They were slightly custardy in the middle and served with a rich and sweet/savory miso caramel sauce.
