Their chef is very good! My favorite thing to order is the Ahi Tuna dinner or the Ahi wrap. My husband’s favorite is the Tricolor Tortellini with grilled chicken. Find their menu on Facebook. Order by phone and pick up available.
Always friendly & fun, you can find a great steak dinner or a quick burger. On weekends they feature karaoke. Come watch the game, or enjoy pull tabs, game room & pool table. There’s always fun times & great meals cooking at Da Boathouse!
