Reviews for McLoone's Boathouse in West Orange, NJ
The staff was so lively and personable. Gorgeous views while having a luncheon, majority of the tables are conveniently in the... shade. I had the ahi nachos and fish tacos... love them both. Really 0 complaints, even their indoor design aesthetic wasindustrial yet bright with natural light. Added some photos of our menu picks. Read more
We ordered a dozen clams ($19) and oysters ($30) on the half shell and it was the worst I’ve ever had. Whoever shucked the... shellfish did not know what they were doing. The clams were completely destroyed and some of the shells barely had any meat. Notto mentioned it was all stuck to the shell and incredibly hard to eat. I suspect they split the clams in half and counted it astwo. The oysters were also not shucked properly and required a lot of effort to release the meat from the shell. For the pricewe paid, the quality of food did not hit the mark. To clarify, our server was extremely nice but there is something up with thekitchen. Not a place I would come back to. Read more
Very nice and cozy place with great vibe and atmosphere! The food is good and decent. More importantly is the outdoor space. It... is great and beautiful with amazing view! You’ll enjoy the food there. Read more
I had been at this restaurant many times before for lunch and dinners. First time after pandemic and it was not the same.... Hostesses are not friendly. I felt that I disturb them for some reason and I'm not at right place. Then I was waiting tillwaiter gets to us for 25 min before he gets our drinks water. Waiter was great and food was great but beginning of the nightmake me think twice before I come there again. Read more
Went to McLoone’s Boathouse for a Lunch get together with my coworkers. Service was good, we had reservations so we were... seated once everyone arrived. Although the drinks and food took awhile to come out, it wasn’t disappointing. I had the salmonburger with truffle fries and the boathouse bucket to drink. Love the views over looking the water, I’ll be returning. Read more
The full quarter leg on the left is what I thought I was getting. The pic on the right is what I actually got for dinner... ????.... My first time at this place and definitely my last! I tried to be nice and not make a big deal as there were so manyissues going on. I could not pass up this opportunity to leave this review. This meal should be removed off of their menu. Read more
Great spot. It is excellent for when you have couples, singles and families. It’s not too adult or too child friendly, right... in the middle. Very nice. Food was good too. I thought the prices were fair. Read more
Stopped by this restaurant for a Thanksgiving meal with family. The food was buffet style and the overall quality wasn’t... salty. Servers were quite busy being a holiday so I don’t blame them that the silverware had to be asked for. I think thefood was at best whole foods quality. The venue is beautiful and a large space next to the water front so it has an an aestheticappeal while dining. Drink menu wasn’t impressive as well and had very basic drinks. Overall, probably wouldn’t go back,but worth a stop if you want to eat somewhere nice but regular American cuisine. Read more
