The dipping sauce which is tomato-based had a fiery kick to it. We sniffled our way through a delicious meal! It also came with a few raw veggies like carrots, cucumbers, and lettuce which helped deal with the spice. Their staff was friendly and great. They do have a few tables inside and outside if you want to dine in. We got ours to go. They steam the momos fresh so it was about an 18-20 min wait for them to be ready. Oh but they're so good that you won't mind the wait even one bit!

Cute little seating area, lots of photos of the Himalayas as the owner is Nepalese.

But, everyone is amazingly friendly, the food is delicious and yes, the view. We've eaten there for every meal of the day and snacks included - if you have kids, the kids menu is basically the same throughout the property for lunch/dinner. Seafood is a standout, but everything is great - from fresh produce (some from the Chatham Bars Inn farm down the road!) to desserts. The lobster tacos may have been my favorite this time - flavorful and full of lobster. For when you don't need an entire crustacean. Drinks are delicious - the Chatham rose is quite good, but there are plenty of wine options on the menu either by the glass or bottle. This year, I also noticed quite a few non-alcoholic wines and beers (more than usual). Service is always friendly and willing to go the extra mile if you have menu questions or tweaks. I'm not sure they can make every change to a menu item possible, but they will try their best. At the beginning of the 'season' in summer, there are often team members learning, but I've never noticed a drop off in service at all. Overall, expensive, but delicious and a spot that you simply can't beat for the atmosphere.

I honestly think it's probably one of the best places to stay if you're visiting Cape Cod. It turns out this restaurant is actually pretty popular on the Cape, so we decided to give it a try. Unfortunately, the food was just okay--nothing spectacular. We got the Chicken Piccata, Lobster Roll, and Panzanella Salad. The salad was incredibly fresh and very good. The Chicken Piccata was also good, but nothing that really blew me away. The Lobster Roll, though, was incredibly bland. If you prefer a very simple and mild lobster roll, you might enjoy it, but it just wasn't for me. The brioche was amazing, but I really didn't enjoy the lobster itself. Honestly, the main reason I would come back here is for the view. The setting is beautiful, especially being right by the beach, but in my opinion, the food is pretty subpar. Come for the views, not necessarily for the food.

But I have to admit that every time I've looked at the menu for their fine dining restaurant, Stars, I was never impressed so we've only eaten there when we hosted Liz's big birthday bash in 2022. That food was great but we just never tried Stars even after that. This week we are staying at one of the Spa Suites at CBI and last night we dined at Stars. The crab cake starter was the best crab cake either of us has ever had and we've done Baltimore many times. There was no filler, beautifully done fresh crab. Outstanding. I ordered the New York strip which was served with pommes purée and a medley of fresh CBI grown vegetables. That steak was better than any I've had at Moo, Grill 23 or Abe and Louis by a lot. Tender, flavorful and perfectly seasoned. Amazing. Liz had the scallops which she also loved, the one I tasted was perfectly seared and sweet. The Mexican Hot Chocolate cake was spectacular and the ice cream was amazing. The best meal I've had all year by far. The wine list is extensive but be careful there were several bottles costing more than $5000. We had a nice bottle of Barolo for around $150. All in on this place.

I'm so torn about rating this restaurant for many reasons. It's an iconic hotel with so much…read morehistory behind it, and a view to live for - the kind of view that is the music in a dream. We're in second summer, it was our anniversary and the hotel lobby, veranda, bar and pub were PACKED. It tells you something... OH THAT VIEW! Soaking in the last sips of summer feels. Walking into Stars and turning towards the windows, you feel all the feels. And with Jose as our steward for the evening - magic. And now the wheels start falling off the bus. Because in a restaurant that thinks highly of itself, with an award-winning wine list, the uniform on many of the servers looked liked they weren't fitted properly, and as picky as that may sound, when you have the prices you charge, every single detail matters. Prices are hair-raising but it is the vibe for the restaurant. The bread service, at $16 was fantastic. The baking team nailed it. The foie gras was so ethereal making a heavy product like the foie light and airy. The staff was LOVELY. Even if some needed better fitting. I ordered the Halibut - receiving an appetizer size piece of fish that was COLD, with beautiful petite veggies. Perfectly seasoned, but cold. My husbands super petite piece of duck? DELISH, but COLD. The temperature was just off. And I am sorry - in a restaurant like this, where IF an A-LISTER walked in the food would be flawless, that thinks highly of itself can't afford to let a single dish go without the love. I can't blame Alex, the super elegant and charming manager - he answers to a higher calling. The owners, the higher level management... cmon. Give the team what they need to make it flawless for EVERYONE that walks in through the door. Everyone is a VIP regardless of their net worth. Cold entrees, not cool. I'm sorry people, but not cool.

Littlenecks cook in about 6 minutes and I am sure the quahog is ready to be popped in the oven on the prep line. 45 minutes later, no apps. Bartender is back in the kitchen 3 times. Still no apps. We get to talking to a local resident next to us who ordered a salad with salmon, and she says that this was her second try at the restaurant as well and no realizes why she never came back. Her salad took about an hour. For a salad... Ok, so now we place dinner. Well we should have just paid at that point and gone to the Squire for a burger cause now we wait another hour for our dinners. Which when they come out are ice cold. Mind you we had baked cod and a pasta dish. Neither of those should take more than 20 minutes to prep. We have now been in this place over 2 hours and didn't get to eat a dinner. What a huge disappointment. Sad thing is this place can get away with bad service because they are attached to an inn in downtown. So people will never stop eating there. But hopefully with a few more bad reviews, they will figure something out or close.

It's more than a coffee shop though, they have basic dry goods, snacks, and sandwich bar. The service is just ok. The servers are working hard, but not so friendly. I know weekends especially bring a big wave of customers and it's a lot to keep up with. The coffee is ok, not great. Both times I got an iced flat white (ice latte with less milk) and the ratio was great. The only difference between the small and large iced latte is more milk, not more espresso. Baked good look very good, breakfast sandwich is just ok. Very simple, premade, warm English muffin with egg, cheese, and sausage/bacon.

They were out of two different breads at 1:30 p.m. I ordered a sandwich on toasted bread. It came on untoasted, soggy bread. A simple request ... I even pointed out another sandwich when ordering 'just like that'. The cold cuts were nothing special. Cut a little too thick ... real good delis slice thin and pile on the bread. This was 3 thicker pieces of meat ... bland. No spices. The guacamole was an absolute joke. It was literally a green stain on the bread. It wasn't guacamole. It was literally like green paint. I've never seen anything like this before. I have had sandwiches with a thicker layer of mustard than this 'guacamole'. The bacon was a little rubbery and not crisp. Tasted like pre-packaged bacon. The bread was bland ... cold cuts were bland ... the only part of the sandwich which had flavour was the very spicy mayo. If you don't like hot things ... be prepared. It had a very hot pepper taste. I was surprised as that's not how the sandwich was described on the board. The store itself was staffed with tons of college kids. Attention to detail/perfection was not their forte. Nor was friendliness. The bar in the back was unstaffed i asked how to get a drink and they said you could order one. Tough to do with no bartender. I will skip this place if back in Harwichport.

I am the WORLD'S BIGGEST food critic, and hands down, this was one of the BEST breakfasts I have ever had! There was a line out the door, and now I completely understand why. But it wasn't just the food that blew me away. I sat at the bar and watched the staff work, and I was honestly fascinated. They navigated a packed restaurant flawlessly, engaged with everyone, helped one another, and somehow made the whole place feel relaxed and happy. One staff member told me, "We love working here. We don't have a manager--it just all works." And WOW, does it work!!! I own a business that runs pretty smoothly, so I naturally notice systems, staff interaction, customer service, and how a busy operation flows. This place was IMPECCABLE. Everything worked together like a well-oiled machine, yet it never felt mechanical. It felt warm, genuine, fun, and welcoming. The food: AMAZING. The staff: AMAZING. The atmosphere: AMAZING.

All the road work going on MA 28 was also incentive, as we could get there without traveling on it from where we were staying. We were also told several times to get their grilled breads (if you weren't gluten-free, of course). The complimentary coffee in the waiting area was a nice tough as well. It certainly lived up to the recommendations. We had maybe a 3 minute wait for a table on a busy Friday morning. There were lots of specials on the blackboards on the side wall. Coffee came out quickly; it was piping hot and mellow, with very frequent refills. I did try the bread, an apple-cranberry, grilled/toasted medium with a pat of butter for extra yum. I opted for the hash Benedict with fruit instead of potatoes. I got potatoes by mistake anyway, but they immediately brought over the fruit. The eggs were perfectly cooked, the Hollandaise was flavorful, and the hash was crisp and not greasy at all. Now it's my turn to be a good friend and pass the recommendations forward for others.
