Our server, Amir, delivered outstanding service, and the host made us feel particularly valued. The entire staff was incredibly welcoming, and the cuisine was exceptional, we ordered the tuna poke with avocado & creamy togarashi in a spicy vinaigrette, prime NY strip steak entree with housecut fries, the grilled octopus appetizer which was plated beautifully and was cooked to perfection with a nice char and tender center. The surf & turf was a very generous portion of short ribs and sea scallops noodles with wild mushrooms in a truffle cream sauce. We also had the sesame and panko crusted tuna entee with wasabi "air" foam. We appreciate the wonderful experience, outside table surrounded by blooming seasonal flowers and plants. For dessert had chocolate creme brulle, and strawberry sorbet. Everything was plated beautifully and tasted amazing. We can not wait to return to this outstanding picturesque restaurant on the canal in New Hope.

Octopus-so charred that it was bitter Sea bass-fantastic: mild taste, buttery, perfectly cooked. The Cauliflower Puree was smooth and a tasty, balanced bite when eaten together with the fish and sauce Short rib over risotto-tender, deeply flavored meat and generous amount of red wine sauce over creamy risotto was delicious. Our waitress did a good job explaining the menu options, just a bit of a mix-up with my dining companion's drink order. Complimentary macarons at the end of our meal were a nice surprise.

It wasn't particularly busy and we were able to walk in to seating. It took forever to get a simple drink order placed and delivered and then our food order took much longer than normal to arrive as well. This is a restaurant that encourages ordering multiple small plates to share and we are completely on board with that but not when all the dishes arrive at once. I am happy to report that the food was delicious; salvaging the evening.

We got the last table - a cute place right by the window and it felt like we were outside but without the chill of the autumn air. The ambiance was relaxed with lots of exposed wood and brick and greenery everywhere. Service was good and although food took a little while, it wasn't too long. Husband got a Caesar wrap which he liked. I got the stir fry veggies with rice and I added chicken. The veggies were crisp and plentiful, sauce seemed to be teriyaki. Good chicken. I was so excited to eat it, I forgot the photo! The only problem for me is the rice was fairly scant. I like lots of carbs. If we were just going home, I'd have a snack but we were out of town so I ordered more rice which took a while again. And they gave me a full side order which was too much. But still, all the food was excellent and exactly what I'd wanted.

There are so many varieties to be enjoyed in a flight, by the glass, or by the bottle and we really loved the warm mulled wine, which was perfect on a chilly day.

My friend ordered the salmon special, and said that she really enjoyed it. I forgot to note how the mashed potatoes were made but I do know they had some paprika in them. Almost like a twice baked but different. Delish! I had the French Onion Pasta. OMG. If you are a French onion fan please run to Stella. I have thought about it ever day since. What a wonderfully bouquet of onion. The whole meal was onion yet not overpowering at all! The cream sauce was not too heavy. This meal is to die for. I cannot wait to go back. The view is amazing, we ate at the window by the river and of course all of the servers and runners are polite and friendly, as is the nature of the upscale restaurant. We both highly recommend Stella.

I started with a half dozen of their East Coast oyster selection, which were great. Then for my entree, I picked their Ahi Tuna Bowl (marinated ahi tuna, soy, sesame, macadamia nuts, wasabi peas, arugula, cider vinaigrette, sweet onions, farro, and sake aioli), which was also great - healthy and light while still really flavorful. Then I had a couple of scoops of sorbet (cucumber mint and mango). All of this food was perfect on a hot summer day. I also enjoyed a glass of white wine and a cup of coffee at the end of the meal. In addition to the great food, wine, and coffee, the service was wonderful (my server was named Logan and she was so great). Then there's the ambiance. They have outdoor seating that looks out over the Delaware River, but I had reserved an indoor table - I still a great view of the Delaware River throughout my meal! Overall, it was just a really nice meal - right in the heart of New Hope, it's a great option for an upscale meal with a great view.

Borrowing a move from Tiki bars, the Boathouse's nooks contain risque artwork! We were greeted by a friendly lady in a tiki robe, who gave us the option to sit outdoors, indoors (ground level with live music), or upstairs where the bulk of the artwork resides. We opted for upstairs. The space felt like a classy naval officer's club. The cocktail menu contained mostly classics and riffs on classics. I opted for the Smoked Honey Negroni with Barr Hill gin, and a Boulevardier. Both were very good. The Boulevardier - interestingly, was served neat in a brandy snifter glass. Our group also tried the French 75 and Last Word (Mezcal style). Cocktails were $16-$17, well-constructed, and sturdy. Service was friendly and unrushed - the perfect format for a relaxing evening. My one constructive suggestion is to replace the creaky wooden chairs upstairs and add more couches or cushioned chairs.

For this five star review, I want to slightly preface that perhaps a small portion of why my wife…read moreand I had such a splendid experience at The Boat House was because of our timing, but I'll come back to that shortly because regardless of when we were there, I did love so much about this place. Recommended by almost any local you ask, The Boat House sits in the quieter Lambertville side of the bridge that connect this Jersey town to the slightly more bustling New Hope, PA. Down an Edison-lighted alleyway you'll find this small house for boats and ya know, it probably was a house (not sure about for boats) because it's pretty dang small. The night we were there I noticed there's some outdoor tables available, but really the interior downstairs area only fits a handful of folks. The upstairs can hold a bit more and that is where our timing lies. Somehow, we must have been early/lucky enough to hit The Boat House on a Friday evening when everyone was still out to dinner because the very friendly host sat us upstairs where we had the entire place to ourselves for almost our entire time there. Having the space added such an extra vibe to everything, especially because those creaky steps lead up to what really gives The Boat House its name as the ceiling is covered in maritime memorabilia. The walls, book shelves, and eclectic array of tables and chairs also adds to this. People or not, it is a true unique spot. But what really makes the place so great (besides the looks and the friendly staff who never stopped checking in on us) are the drinks. To start, my wife wasn't feeling alcohol and got an Aper-No Spritz which did the trick, though for myself, I dove into the intriguing list of specialty drinks that makes this place worth visiting. Round one was the Rower's Reserve which lists as a Boat House original and is gin-based with Amaro Nonino, sage, and blackberries to create some fantastic flavors. Round two I had to go with a personal favorite (with a twist) in the smoked honey Negroni which tasted exactly as it sounded. There were a bunch of other libations that also sounded intriguing, but that'll have to be for a future visit. Overall, there's a reason people from the area always suggest The Boat House. It's a true old fashioned maritime cocktail bar that gives you all the feels you'd want from a place like this. Perhaps this review is a little tainted in timing, but hey, maybe that'll give you a little motivation to get here on the earlier side and checkout the upstairs area for yourself. No matter if there's people up there or not, it's a good time here. Cheers!

Excellent birthday lunch!!!…read more We sat outside by the water at a reserved table. Lovely views and ambience. Our waitress, Jen, was personable, attentive and fast. She quickly brought kids cups, gave us recommendations and made us laugh. The food is pretty good! We enjoyed the spring salad, cauliflower bites, and shrimp app. The scallops were ok - a little too much corn and not enough pesto imo. I think they should maybe put them over the risotto? We got a side of veggies which were tasty. My sister and law liked the tacos. The drinks were excellent! The inside is nice, renovated with air conditioning and a nice bar. The manager/host quickly moved us inside just before it starting down pouring and we were extremely grateful! Gave us time and a moment to enjoy birthday cupcakes/coffee. Want to give them a HUGE thanks and def recommend coming here!!! Want to come back and see a show. :)
