Went here with couple family members on a Sunday for dinner. Great location near water, nice dining room. We chose to eat on the patio. Very pretty, but very buggy. We all ordered a different seafood entree and all were excellent. Hot, delicious, plentiful and well plated. Service was very good too. Will definitely go again. read more

I sat by the window with a view of the Roundout Creek. I liked the chicken wrap, and a piece of chocolate cake, with mocha, and hazelnuts. read more

Really liked this place. It's within eyeshot of Hudson Cruises so my beautiful girl and I stopped in after our romantic cruise up and down the Hudson. Food was pretty solid and the location was clutch to feed us after a long day. Outdoor seating was perfect on the crisp cool day we visited. Service was great. I won't be in the area again anytime soon but if I were I'd certainly stop in again. read more

Food, Service, and ambiance are great 13 of us ordered Prime rib sandwich, mussels, Cod sandwich, salmon, Cod sandwich, soup,...Each and everyone loved their meal. I had the sliced steak rare and it was the best I'm an experienced eater; and this steak was tasty , tender and a colorful red. Always liked this place outdoors or indoors and this time it was exceptional. The wait staff is pleasant and well trained highly recommended read more

A solid dining experience with nice service and a good menu of items, with views of the water While I wasn't blown away by the food, we enjoyed it (spinach and shrimp risotto special was tasty but could have been cooked a touch longer; steak, mashed potatoes and green beans had a good sauce but steak was a bit chewy; clams and linguini were as advertised and good; calamari was good and not too bready but was a bit pricey for the portion size). They also have a selection of other seafood, sandwiches, soups and salads. Entrees were around $25 per dish. Sandwiches and wraps under $20. No restaurant parking but municipal lot is close and side street parking available for those who look around. Service was attentive and friendly. I imagine the views are nice if you sit outside but in the cooler months it was only ok. Views of the "Severance" Bridge available too. Pretty close to some other shops on the waterfront. read more

From Utah Visiting family and have been here 3x I love patronizing local brew pubs and this is the best. I've come around happy hour and was lucky to have Emily all 3 times. She can handle the crowd and still be an attentive server. The food has all been good and atmosphere is stunning.I also wasn't asked for a credit card BEFORE I ordered unlike the Blue Duck brewery and I could pay cash unlike to Hutton Brickyard which only takes credit cards which should be against the law...cash is legal tender. Great place read more

On our million (lol) visit to Mariners and they are still knocking it out of the park! Our waiter was very attentive and the food came out nice and hot. We were hoping to eat in the patio but they're booked for the night due to live music on Friday nights in the summer. Mental note...make reservations early next time. Our food was amazing. The steamers are amazing and we're taking the broth home...it's THAT good. It is a must. I ordered a salad because this girl has been eating a lot of carbs lately and my jeans are screaming to please eat a salad but I did get it with Cajun chicken and that made it delicious with just enough spice. My companions loved their dinners. They both got shrimp dinners and it came with lots of shrimp!!! The flavors are amazing and we all left full and happy. read more

Marine's Harbor is a true crowd pleaser. Then again, depends who you ask. From Wraps to Bisque to Oysters to Main plates, this is one restaurant nestled along the Roundout Creek in Kingston, NY, that practically has everything and then some. This place is like a maze of surprises because you enter by their spacious bar, followed by their dining room and then their covered canopy area. With their seafood-plenty menu, we lucked out for a late lunch and seated in their serene covered balcony area overlooking the creek. I could be wrong, but from looks of it, come to Mariner's H. for a big rowdy evening too by the bar. The one server around, weaved through tables with ease and charm- and, there were about 3 other tables he tended to. We kicked things off with a doz. Blue Point oysters that were meaty and satisfying alone and hubs enjoyed his skewered steak appetizer that was nicely kissed by the grill. I stayed with Mocktails and were both done very well. Between the sprinkled lavender buds on my Lavender+Ginger+Lemonade and my Mango+ Turmeric drink, ingredients ROCKED! Hubs' stuffed Cod with crab meat+shrimp, was exactly that and not some mealy, bready mush and said a sprinkle of salt was needed and my salmon and cream sauce was enough for like two people. We thought price was fair. My dish was $28 and can't get better than that! And even their regular cocktails topped at $13-14. Price is too good. It's a guaranteed treat. Follow your lunch or dinner with a stroll by the creek to catch the boats gliding through. read more

b.overly_delicious @marinersharborkingston Kingston, NY: The days of my youth, late night drinking at Mariner's, are long gone. I can still see the Phil Rizzuto commercials on tv, over and over in my head. Mariners is certainly a staple of the community and living in the shadow of Mariner's Harbor Highland's past. After sitting down with Sal Guido over a plate of pasta, he explained the ever-changing climate of increasing quality and service expected by the new wave of well-to-do tourists. Whether you want to admit it or not, Kingston has quickly become a tourist town with a swell of customers coming all year. Restaurants have been forced to increase prices but also increase quality to keep up with the evolving dinning scene. Sal explained, "nothing comes frozen or prepackaged, it's all breaded in house". A welcomed change from Mariners' past. I started off with a basket of hot bread and a plate of fried calamari. Calamari was lightly breaded and delicate. I threw some salt on for good measure. My plate of Fra Diavlo was delicious and well-prepared with a nice mix of shellfish. Not too spicy and a large portion of shells to dig through. Thinking about sitting outside on a cool summer evening, with live music that Mariner's puts on all summer, really sounds nice right about now. The strand is always a pleasant place to wash away the stress of a long week or simply celebrate a birthday. I could really go for a drink right now.

Again a delicious meal! Steamers in butter clam broth garlic, Lobster ravioli in vodka sauce, fried cod with fries! Val served us with warmth and sincere pleasure as we shared our enjoyment! The sunny day and view of the river added to the ambience. Planning a return trip with friends! read more

This was such a nice place to eat dinner! The atmosphere was relaxed and there was a sitting area in the enclosed patio that looked out over the Hudson River. It wasn't open yet but it looked lovely. I had the red sangria--it was so good! My meal was the scallops with creamy Parmesan risotto. It was so delicious and rich. I felt like it was a real treat. The scallops were cooked to perfection and the risotto was just so tasty and creamy. I was too stuffed to have dessert but the service was great, the host was super friendly and chatted with us and it was just an overall lovely dining experience. read more

Total disappointment. Going here for a few years. Birthday dinner comes up. Make a 630 reservation. Party of 5. Sit down, 25 MIN. later server finally takes drink order, order food at same time . Order lobster because that's what they are famous for. Another 20 min later drinks come out. Another 15 min later server says they sold out of lobster (730 on a Friday night by the time server finally took order) order something else, even though the stupid lobster was the whole reason we came to this place. Didn't get check until after 9pm. 2 1/2 hours to serve a part of 5. Garbage service. Won't be coming back for a long time . read more

The linguini with shrimp and scallops Florentine with sun-dried tomatoes, and peas was delicious with lots of scallops. The chef was kind enough to replace the vodka sauce with olive oil. It was so much better. The vodka marinara reminds me of tomato soup, and it would have ruined the taste of the seafood. Many thanks to the chef for accommodating my request. read more

We had not been here for many years but since the weather was so nice we decided to stop in for a quick bite outdoors overlooking the historic waterfront TR Gallo park. We were not at all disappointed. We ordered the special prosciutto pizza with pear and it was amazing along with the ahi tuna served in a wonton bowl and both dishes were fresh and yummy and paired well together. Our waitress, was very attentive and Linda, the hostess for many years, was quick to stop us and ask us if we were happy with the service and meal on the way out. We admitted that we had not dined here in years because we were not happy with the food or service the last couple times, but it seems things have improved 100% and we will give it another shot soon and let you know if it is consistently good. read more

Tasty food + beautiful scenery + attentive service, what more can anyone ask for? We were a party of five, arrived at Kingston by boat for brunch, and this restaurant was right there by the water to welcome us. It's an extra large establishment, with spacious outdoor seatings and a sizable team of waiting staff. Any eatery that can satisfy this non-drinking vegetarian gets a 5 star. Everything we ordered is shown in the photos of this review, except for my son's plate of Fish and Chips - he sat a bit far for my phone camera to get a good angle. Although I did not taste everyone's choice, esp. the non-vegetarian options, I could still recommend this restaurant with confidence, judging by my fellow diners' level of satisfaction. read more

Did not have that great of an experience here. I was in the area to explore Kingston and thought it would be nice to have some seafood. There aren't many seafood restaurants in the area, and I was really hungry so I stopped by. Firstly, I don't know if I am a fan of the fact that the area is not air conditioned. I came in late July when it was super hot and the indoor seating was closed (not sure if that part even had AC to begin with). Not to mention, when I came in the restaurant was pretty empty but I ended up waiting an entire hour for my food. People who came after me had already gotten their food and finished eating before mine came. Secondly, the food seems to be way overpriced compared to the quality of what you're getting. We got a crab cake sandwich and a Zuppa Di Pesce. There was nothing special in my opinion, especially for a dish that costs $30, I expected more quality. I am well aware that it is probably a tourist trap which I walked myself into, but I am generally not that big of a fan of this place. The only thing I would say I liked were their raw clams. But their lobster bisque did not even have any lobster in it or the right lobster bisque flavor read more

If you eat outdoors it has a beautiful outdoor scenery if the River and boats going up and down. The calamari was light and crisp but the sauce which was good was thick enough to be on spaghetti. It was good. We got the crab cakes where they serve 4 thin cakes with Mayo based sauce smeared on the plate. It may look overdone but it isn't. The raw clams did not look very fresh but they were fine. This was better than the first restaurant we ate at in Uptown. Definitely eat here when you visit. read more

Came in tonight to have Birthday meal and got the Maine Lobster. Ended up with the 2 lb as my entree because the 1 1/4 lb was sold out. This is a Father's Day weekend. Appetizer was the steamer clams in a delicious broth. My brother got the beer batter cauliflower appetizer. Was really good. We shared a salad. His entree was the ahi tuna. Delicious too. We had a great time. The meal was great and service was friendly and helpful. This is a great place to go to. We sat in the outside patio with a good view. read more

Disappointing experience, after a decent one in May of this year. The lobster rolls did not have big pieces of claw and knuckle meat this time, and they did not include cole slaw like they did last time-it was a choice of fries or slaw. We asked for mayonnaise on the side, and found out when the check arrived that we were charged $1 each for the mayo. We asked the waitress about it, and she said it was considered a sauce. Sauces were extra so we were charged two dollars for two little plastic containers of mayo. I told her it was a condiment, not a sauce, and she told me that the owner was responsible for the fee. We won't be returning. Ridiculous! read more

First time here. Great location by water and a lot of parking options very close. Staff pleasant at check in. Seating very comfortable outside with lots of space which is a huge plus. Not congested tables like in other water front locations. Wait staff professional and helpful. Food was good. Pricing was reasonable. Good clean Cold water bottle with ice was nice for tables. Wings were not very good. Not crispy. Just greasy fatty skin. Buffalo calamari was excellent. Perfectly cooked and seasoned. Best dish of the day. Mussels were good. Small mussels and small portion for price. Mussel Sauce excellent. Lobster bisque was fair. French Onion soup good. Grilled chicken veggie wrap was good. Little bland but nice big wrap. Subbed out fries for green beans. Servers did it with no issue or cost. Buffalo chicken wrap was good. Angus burger very good. Fries were good. Tuna bowl was excellent. Overall a nice experience and atmosphere. 3.5 for food. 4.0 for staff. 4.0 location. Will come back again. read more

Haven't been here in a hot minute and was easily sat at the dinner hour without a reservation. The back seating has been renovated and looks sharp and the space was warm and well insulated. We were not cramped at all and were able to get cocktails n bread quickly with a robust menu of diverse foods. Side note: the Thai beer-battered cauliflower app was A-mazing. Not something I would have tried but a new fav. The specials were excellent. Staff always attentive, polite and helpful. We were able to spend a lot of time visiting with zero pressure to turn over the table. Always a grade-A experience. read more

Careful eating here. They serve old sea food. Calamari was pink and old (google pink calamari) Old sea food can kill someone and make you very sick. I did not realize it until three bites in. The restaurant didn't even offer to do an incident report after serving me old seafood. Old sea food is nothing to take lightly. It makes me scared for the other customers that may have eaten it without realizing. This place really needs to purge their expired food and not serve it to customers. The chef should be fired!! read more

Nice atmosphere, competent and pleasant waitstaff. I had the lobster roll with apple slaw. Lobster was good but not great. Seemed to be sweet along with sweetness of coleslaw was too much. Then I don't like coleslaw made with sugar at all. Hubby had a grilled veggie wrap which was good and a good size. He took half home. I would say the overall rating of 3.5 is about right. Nice atmosphere. read more

Came here for my Sister N Laws 40th Bday Party and we had a blast. The staff was super friendly. We had an open Wine and Beer Bar and the selection was nice. I am totally looking forward to coming back in the Summer and enjoy the view. Dinner was awesome. We had choices between steak, shrimp and pasta, or chicken Francaise. I opted for the steak au jus and hubs opted for the shrimp fresco both cooked to perfection and kept us wanting more. read more

We stopped in yesterday for Mother's Day which I realize is a hectic day for most restaurants. The good: our drinks & our appetizers (fried calamari, oysters, thai cauliflower), and the service. I had the linguini with clam sauce (white) as my entree. The clams were fresh & cooked perfectly; stack those into "the good". The bad: the pasta was sooooo overcooked I could barely pick it up with my fork and the sauce was literally water. I would order something else next time. I've enjoyed the mahi tacos, seared tuna, the burger and other items on the menu before. I'll stay away from pasta here. read more

If you're going to have seafood and the state of New York, expect to pay more. So don't complain about the prices! My friends and I went here for dinner tonight, and everything was delicious. Before dinner, I had a beer from a local Poughkeepsie Brewery called Millhouse Brewery, which tasted very good. My dinner was Sesame crusted Ahi Tuna with mango coleslaw and lemongrass rice, along with a glass of the house white wine (1st time I have mixed my drinks). As is evidenced by my empty plate, I enjoyed everything immensely. Again, and for the 3rd time since I've been in New York, the waiter / waitress did not ask how us how the food was. Though, our waiter did come up and asked us if we would like something else. But again, I can live with that when the food is this good. read more

First time visit and w enjoy the experience. Hot day but they had indoor dining as well as shaded seating outdoors. Large menu with daily specials.

Sure it was a busy Friday night and the table wait was very long, but Caitlin at the bar and Nick at our table took very good care of us. I have been coming here since I lived in Kingston about a decade ago. Mariner's has been our go to spot every time we come back to town. I now live in Poughkeepsie, but will come back here religiously because the food and drink is far above par. Again, it's on the water so you have to be patient, but worth every minute. The steamers are perfectly prepared. The marinated steak was flawless, and my wife's shrimp were perfect. Never disappoints, and thankful for the whole staff effort for keeping up with incredible demand at a busy bar. Cannot wait until our next date night, this place is the go to. read more

Maybe I should have gone over the summer bc it seems as though others had a great experience! We went in September, I wrote in 4 times and received no response about how terrible our experience was. Not only was the service terrible, but the amount of time it took for our meal was well over 40 minutes, when other people had gotten to the restaurant later and ate earlier than us. From the time we entered the restaurant to the end was painful and expensive, and we had to take our dinners to go because of the length, who wants to eat Market Price lobster to go? read more

This restaurant has a great location right on the water, the bar is so nice and they have a huge patio! Great place to get drinks and then walk along the water. Service was also really great! And their fries are nice and crispy. Their lobster soup was also good. They definitely did not cheap out on the amount of lobster they put in it! read more

I went to Kingston, NY on a weekend getaway. Being from the Bronx, I can happily say that this was some of the best calamari I have ever had. The calamari was tender and fried crunchy without being dried out. The sauce places onto the side was delicious. I had the lobster tail and slices steak. Let me just say -WOW. It is difficult to process that I do not live close enough to grab another bite. The steak was cooked perfectly; I asked for medium and could tell it was rested properly. It was juicy and as advertised, had a delicious taste that could only come from a proper marinade. My wife had the chicken portobello pasta dish. She isn't one for seafood, so it was interesting to see how their non- seafood and meat dishes were. It was outstanding. Chicken was cooked to a great texture and the creamy sauce was delicious. We spoke about coming back up to visit and this meal was definitely a motivation. They have a beautiful outside dining area with a view of the water and beautiful buildings opposite. I will add that they made appropriate conditions to the Covid 19 virus without interrupting the dining experience. Thank you for taking the health of your customers seriously! read more

Lively fun spot on the Kingston waterfront. The space is huge and I wanted to sit on the deck but...because there was a band playing, you need a reservation to sit on deck. The bartender girls were fantastic; attentive & friendly. We dined on clam steamers with a side of rolls to soak up all that delicious clam broth. I had the lasagna chip nacho appetizer which was meh and tasted like ogida. The fried shrimp was tough and overcooked-not the best I've had. The menu is large so I guess I just made some bad choices. We also ordered a jalapeño margarita that was also so so. I prefer my drinks with fresh juices. Overall we had a great time and will definitely return. Sometimes nice people and good vibes make the experience worthwhile. read more

First off, get you someone who looks at you the way my husband looks at Mariner's Crab Cake Sandwich yes, it was way more delicious than it looks & my sesame crusted tuna was perfect. Even though they were super busy, the servers and staff were all very friendly, worked efficiently, and everything came out in a reasonable time. I was SURE there would be a delay (understandably as everyone everywhere is short staffed right now), but nope! Our drinks, app, and entrees came out quickly. Also got a half dozen oysters. Perfect in this summer heat. If you're looking for delicious seafood in Kingston this is the place. We'll be back soon for a lobster dinner! read more

@ ten years ago I had so many bad experiences I vowed not to try anymore. Ten years later I thought...let's try. 1st try. Ok. Seafood not fresh. Reception - very sweet. Wait staff wonderful. 2nd try. Reception - very sweet. Wait staff - slow to not returning until I had to chase them down. Then gave a nasty attitude. Seafood wasn't fresh and was overcooked. It's over for me but I'm glad they are having a good time down there. There's no real seafood place in the area and because it's by the water, it's a nice hang. read more

Well, all the family and I went out to Mariners Harbor in Kingston. I had several different dishes which we found unappealing. We followed up with desserts, the cake was hard and dry was not all cracked up to what it was supposed to be. Ok the Irish coffee that I ordered had no cream in it. It was very strong. Overall, I give this a three star rating at best. I was very disappointed in the money I spent here. John H read more
