Katy Lamers★★★★★This was on my bucket list for decades and going was just as wonderful as I had dreamed it would be. When Harry Met Sally is one of my all time favorite movies so when my friend and I went to NYC we had to go here, just like her and her girlfriends do to talk about life and love. The mocktail I had was so tasty and refreshing! The patio is gorgeous and we literally saw a family of ducks, coy fish, people rowing around and the stunning city view is unbelievable. It’s a gem. The food was incredible, all very fresh and flavorful. My friend and I can’t stop talking about how yummy the crab cake wa
Bill Garbat★★★★★It is so exciting to see The Boathouse restaurant open again!! I had the pleasure of returning to the restaurant in December 2025 and recently in May 2026.

Anastasiya Martinez-Conde★★★★We had a wonderful evening at the Boathouse with friends who were visiting New York for the first time.

Everyone ordered multiple courses, including appetizers, main dishes, desserts, and coffee, and we also enjoyed two bottles of champagne. Everything was going perfectly un
Jacqueline Onder★★★★★***Terrific experience*** We had a reservation so no waiting for us. Enjoyed a beautiful lunch around noon on a rainy day overlooking the water. Service was perfect and our food from the appetizer to our main course was spot on. 👍 Crab cake, Sea Scallops and Beef fillet all cooked to perfection. High praise to the chefs! ♥️
