Boom Restaurant

We have eaten at Booms Restaurant twice this Summer once in August which was our 1st time & last night (9/10/16) both times with other couples who have never been there before. We ate outside on the deck & the atmosphere, the ambience & the food couldn't have been better!! We watched the sunset while enjoying the beautiful boats in the Marina. All of us "loved" the food, it was delicious! The restaurant is a winner in our opinion & both couples that went with us agreed. We definitely will be back.

Price: $$$$ Ease To Find & Park: 3/5 Food: Great Tasting Food, Small Portions For A Pretty Expensive Meal, Average Entree $27, low $24 High $38... Appetizer $14++... Kids Meals Inexpensive $5/$6.. Atmosphere: Personnel very dry. While you don't feel unwelcome there is no welcoming feel. Very dry employees... feels like just a way they male cash, no more no less. Absolutely no music, no live music, no radio, none at all... Recommend or Not: Yes, but only if you are willing to spend, it's definitely quality of quantity of food... bring your A game for talking as its extremely quiet...

Not great. We tried to make a reservation for 7PM and were told only 6:30PM was available. We arrived and the place was essentially empty except for a few tables with noisy children. At 7:10 when we left, it was still essentially empty. The food was very marginal. The drinks were not great. The Flounder and Chips, a basic dish, had chips that were clearly cooked an hour before they were served. The bill was pretty high - over $90 with tip, for 2 entrees and 2 drinks. Ambiance was terrible. Definitely not worth the price. Really disappointing and why we tend to cook at home when on the CT shoreline.

we made a reservation for 4 at the last minute on a busy summer saturday evening. they managed to squeeze us in to a table inside. while the indoor tables were small and somewhat cramped, the food was excellent. sitting outdoors on the deck overlooking the marina would be a better bet. overall, a welcome newcomer with great food.

My husband and I decided to go out of our "norm" to try a new place. We will NOT be back! First, we made a reservation, as it was recommended that we do so... We drove an hour to get here- not too bad since we were expecting it would be worth it- there was a very unorganized parking situation; we didn't know where to go, people parking right up where you're supposed to walk; very confusing. Then, I walk in and everyone working there seemed completely flustered and didn't really acknowledge us at all. Then another customer rudely shoved me out of the way to show that her reservation was clearly more important than mine. They took her first. Then, when they finally do acknowledge us, they seat us at the smallest, most uncomfortable table in the whole place. I was literally touching elbows with the guy next to me. I politely ask if we can switch to an empty table right next to the water. The guy says "I can't make that decision- let me ask my manager" Then some lady comes out and as shes speeding past us, she says "You can't move because those tables are for reservations only" ..... When she comes back, I tell her "I made a reservation! Why is mine not as good as all the others???" She sees my frustration and reluctantly moves us over. Then they give me a hard time about adding something to a salad, and charged me $6 extra!!! It was just one thing after the next... My husband was very frustrated over the whole situation, and it completely ruined our vibe for the whole night. Very overpriced. Wont be back
