    Burrata salad
    Heather D.

    This is a literal neighborhood restaurant for us. It takes us 6 minutes to walk here. We come every once in a while, mainly because the food is decently good but expensive (over priced?). The historic building provides an amazing atmosphere. It's also great to have the live entertainment in the main dining area. Those with mobility challenges will struggle to get in. We've had many menu items at this point. The clam chowder is tasting better lately with lots of clams. The tuna nachos are good, but they seem overpriced for what you get. We liked the breading on the calamari, but not all the stuff it comes with. The fish and chips is good; the spicy isn't really spicy, and the beer batter (not butter as the menu says) is tasty. The fries are where it's at! Love the monk fish, love the salmon dish. My husband says the burger is great, as is the spicy chicken sandwich. Vegetarians will struggle here because there are no proteins for the vegetarian dishes. Incorporating grilled tofu or beans would be helpful. The burrata salad probably has the most protein, and it's delicious. We keep coming because it's close to our house, and we want to support. A menu refresh is probably in order.

    Beautiful ceiling and chandelier.

    Had an absolutely lovely evening for a company holiday party. Everyone was super nice and helpful. The food was fantastic! Owner was awesome to work with before and during the event. Will definitely be back. Also, amazing building to look at and be in, how can you not love this ceiling?!

    I've enjoyed Blue Duck as a patron and am have organized some work events here. They have great…read moremenues for events and made coordinating a breeze when I was planning for ~20-30 people. Don't miss their happy hour specials!!

    TO BE FAIR THE WINGS WERE FIRE And I WENT ON A MONDAY…read more I'm giving this place 3/5 stars because the food was great, the hostess was extremely attentive but I simply did not get the full experience of the location due to the time and day. Therefore, I will need to revisit to give a better review. I visited The Blue Duck this past Monday, on Presidents' Day at happy hour. I got there around 3 and left just before 5. The wings were 5 for a little over $5 or something like that. Which honestly $1 wing in this economy! Excellent for my pockets. Anyways, the place was quiet, a few people did start coming in as I was leaving, and again, I came on a Monday. Not really a peak bar day. But I would say the location is near the water which is a plus. The seating area at the bar was massive. I'm curious to see how busy it gets on the weekend. This isn't necessarily and instagramable/ social media picturesque kind of spot. Ok, so the wings- I CAN'T STRESS ENOUGH- they were AMAZING . I love it when the skin after being smothered in sauce is still crispy. And they were! The blue cheese wasn't liquidity or too chunky. The fries were crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. The best part- for me- is that they were the shoestring kind of fries. I'm not big on the steak fries or thicker cuts. They were salted just right! No condiments needed for dipping. I ordered two drinks, which I honestly wasn't too impressed by. But it's my bad. I probably should have stuck to shots or basics like A sour of some sort. Idk. The other drinks could be delicious. Overall the only reason at this point that I'm coming back is the wings. Truthfully, the only reason I traveled 45 minutes to New London was after seeing an IG post about all-you-can-eat wings on Mondays. Sadly they aren't doing that anymore.

There were 6 of us for brunch and none of us had been here before. The Shipwright's Daughter rivals many excellent experiences we had and surpasses most. The staff was super friendly and did everything they could to make our experience memorable. The brunch menu offers a nice assortment of options as we had one member in our party who had some eating restrictions. We started off with both raw and roasted oysters, both of which, we some of the best we have ever had. I love Shashuka. I've never had it with tomatillos. This version is now my favorite. I enjoyed the play between savory and acid. I chose my eggs to be prepared over easy expecting the yolks to add the desired richness that tomatillos can handle without overpowering their bite. What set this version apart for me was the addition of the pickled vegetables. They greatly complimented the tomatillos with their own sweetness and acidity that made for a well balanced bite. Others in our party felt similarly, that their meals were so flavorful and so well execucted that it made for a superb dining experience.
