George's Of Galilee

It’s walking distance from our house so we go pretty regularly. Definitely try for a spot on the 2nd floor bar area to get the best view of the boats - they also play live music here in the evenings, so it does get a little loud. This restaurant is enormous but it still fills up quick in the summer. Yes the takeout counter outside is identical food to what’s served in the restaurant. The sushi seems random on a menu of thoroughly American fare, but you are on a fishing pier so it’s very fresh. Obviously seafood, specifically lobster and clams and scallops that are brought in at the pier, are some of the best options. They’ve got great clam cakes. Point Judith calamari is caught right off this coast but 80% of Rhode Island squid is actually shipped to China to be processed - not sure where George’s gets their calamari (and for the record it’s still very good) but it’s likely not as fresh as some of their other items. The cocktails are also really good. I always get the spicy margarita!

I can not say enough good things about George's. We came here the other night, as I have never been, and my husband was here 30 plus years ago. Outdoor seating was open, and really, that was one of the main reasons for coming here, I want to soak in as much summer as I can possibly get. Upon being seated our server Jack came over to take our drink order. He was friendly, pleasant, and very personable. Brought our drinks out, and we ordered clam cakes, as it's a must for me to try anyone's clam cakes in New England. These arrived quickly, hot and delicious. Extremely light. I would have liked to have had a little more clams in them, but they were still very good. Jack took our dinner order, which I opted to try something a little different and went with the Roasted Day boat Cod with Pistachio and Parmasean crust. My husband opted for his favorite, which was baked stuffed shrimp. The time in between our appetizer and the arrival of our dinners was perfect! We got to enjoy hot appetizers while taking in the sceneries before our dinners came out. Literally, I could not have asked for a better experience for a night out. Our meal without tip was 100.00, but this included 2 drinks each, an appetizer, and 2 dinners. While it may be a bit on the high side for some, the service, the atmosphere, and the food were absolutely well worth it. We will definitely be back.

Incredible food, service, drinks, and right on the sandy beach. Couldn't ask for more. The calamari is exceptional: 2 types both with rings and baby squid. The ingredients are remarkable. Best scallops and lobster I've ever had in my life. The place is 10 seconds walk from the beach and a ton of other fun places.

Very good food and drinks. I went out on a limb and ordered the seafood potpie and it was amazing.(pictured below) My wife did not care for the pistachio crusted haddock she wished she just ordered it baked because the fish was very good. We walked out to the beach after dinner and viewed the Tiki bar sand castle. It was very breezy and chilly on the beach so did not spend much time out there. Great place to eat!

Super location, great views, right on the beach. Food and service were great. We will definitely go back!!!
