We sit at the bar and after 5 minutes or so, we place our drink order. So far so good. We then place our app order. Stuffed quahog and the Portugese Littlenecks. Nothing too ground breaking here. 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.

Ok so we've been coming to the Chatham Bars Inn for a very long time. The Inn itself is the best…read moreCape experience for lodging that you will ever find. 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.

I told my wife that I was going to the first restaurant I see.....which happened to be The Captain's Table.....which happened to be A GREAT FIND! This is a family owned restaurant. Our waiter, Steve, happens to be the son of the owners. He cooks, does dishes, buses tables and serves as a charismatic waiter. His dedication to his trade shines through. Now, they serve breakfast all day. If you're like me, 24 hour/day breakfast is a big sell. I had the 2-meat breakfast burrito which might very well have been THE best burrito I've ever had. They make their Bloody Mary mix and they are delicious. PLUS, the prices were reasonable (for Chatham, that is). If you're looking for a great meal prepared by great, local people The Captain's Table is where

They have both indoor and outdoor seating but just about everybody there chose the outdoor patio like us. The menu offered both breakfast and lunch items as well as some specials. I went with the Cajun grilled swordfish sandwich and it was delicious. It came with a small bag of Lay's potato chips as a side. French fries, Cole slaw or any other side would have made it better. My husband had the fish and chips, along with cole slaw. He also enjoyed his food.
