Excellent seafood. Atmosphere, view, food, portions and live music all came together for a great fathers day celebration. I highly recommend Outriggers for any special occasion. We had the Chilean Sea Bass, Grilled Salmon and Blackened Scallops. All top notch. Thanks

Start off with our waitress, Julianna. She was beyond friendly. Very attentive, and always checking to make sure things were to our liking. The food is above standard. All and all a great experience!

Delicious food, excellent service & comfortable deck seating. Pictured are Lobster Grilled Cheese, Broiled Scallops, Baby Spinach Salad, Deconstructed Cannoli & Coffee with Baileys. Highly Recommended!! The only thing I was slightly disappointed in was the Red Hot Margarita...from the name, I was hoping it would be spicier.....

Thanksgiving dinner with a view. Our "go to" seafood restaurant for celebrations is now our go to for a great Thanksgiving meal. Absolutely delicious. Portions were impressive and price was reasonable. Service was a bit on the slow side, but the views made up for it.

Great first time experience at Outriggers! This place has been on our radar since my husband and I moved to Stratford last year and we finally made it for an early evening dinner on Father’s Day weekend. My husband ordered the poke dish entree and I ordered the Crab and Corn Fritters and scallop appetizer and we shared all three. We rarely eat fried food but I have to say that the fritters were worth it! They were delicious. I also absolutely loved the scallop appetizer and would highly recommend it. The poke bowl was huge and had a lot of good flavors. Everything was priced really well for the quality and you feel like you are on vacation sitting out back on the deck overlooking the water. Lastly, the staff was so kind and welcoming. We can’t wait to return!

They are very busy an understaffed but well worth the wait. It was my 5-year anniversary with the love of my life. I reserved a table and wasn't disappointed. I stopped in 2 hours beforehand and Maddie the hostess was more than happy to help set up a dozen white roses for my better half. Our waitress what's Courtney and everything was served to perfection and what she didn't do there was plenty of help to help her. I have been here many times in the past 5 years and it's always an excellent time. The view from the water and the fireworks on the 4th of July or well worth it. Keep up the good work

The claims and the cod were outstanding. Tons of food. We should have shared. We really enjoyed the claim chowder. Services was really good. We will be back.
