I had such a great experience at Mcloones Boathouse. With a great waterfront table on the patio, my friend and i had a wonderful dining experience. My server, who's name I believe was Dylan (tall guy with a mustache) was excellent. Made the two of us feel welcomed and like no one else was in the restaurant. The food was great, with the ahi tuna nachos being the standout. The drinks were great as well, with a nice cappuccino to end the meal. It was truly a 6/5 star experience, we cant wait to be back!

Thanking our server, Leia, for the best service on a beautiful day! 5 stars alone for the service on the patio. Leia was friendly, quick, and efficient. For the prices, the food was underwhelming but maybe we just got the wrong thing. We had our pup with us and he absolutely loved his steamed edamame! It was a very enjoyable experience despite the food. We will certainly be back to try other things! Not a lot of places are dog friendly so we certainly appreciate being able to take our little guy with us to lunch!

I've been to McCloones in the past, but for drinks. it is a beautiful place that sits on the Orange Reservoir. They have a few fireplaces and fire pit, as well as outside seating, which faces the water. It is a very large restaurant with a very nice vibe and they do have live music at times. I have not been there for the live music but I did see the lineup one of the times that I visited. Also the service has been good the few times I visited. Yesterday was my first time dining here. We were served warm bread with sun dried tomatoes in oil. It lacked flavor. We had Blue Point oysters on the half shell, which were not briny at all. I had Blue Point oysters two weeks ago and they were briny and delish, but not these. We ordered drunken muscles, which was made with garlic, white wine, grape tomatoes, parsley, scampi, butter, and served with grilled baquette. This was really good and I look forward to having it again. We also ordered seared scallops, which were delish. I really like this place for the vibe and recommend it. Next time I visit, I plan to skip the oysters since they can be hit or miss, as well as sun dried tomatoes in oil. I do recommend the place.
