Outriggers

Well, well… out of business. If ya ever wanted proof I know what Im talkin’ about — here it is. ;-)

Admittedly a bit pricey but, sofa king good. Took plenty of pictures, check ‘em.
Here’s the skinny:
Great décor and atmosphere & a Koi Pond complete with Koi!
They’re ready to serve a good meal at Noon (open)
Good food albeit pricey for dinner items.
Live music on the weekend.
Here’s the fat:
Décor is nice, classy casual type. I was actually expecting to see fishnets on the walls, anchors and ropes everywhere… nope! You can tell it’s a seafood place but, they didn’t go OVER THE TOP with nautical nostalgia.
There IS a Koi Pond with a little bridge too, pretty cool I think. Watching the fish swimming around, oblivious to the fact that their kin is being cooked up in the back… too dark? did I go too far?
I got there at exactly Noon, like on the dot. I was a bit worried because there wasn’t a soul in there except the staff who were talking among themselves.
Were they even fully open yet?
How’s the food gonna be?
How long is it going to take?
Legit questions I asked myself. All questions that You shouldn’t worry about!
I was seated right away, water and drinks on the spot, the only thing I had to wait for was the Garlic Bread because they had to make it. Fine by me, wanna make me fresh garlic bread go for it! It was good too! I added a dash-​o-​salt but that’s it.
I ordered the Australian Lobster Tail (Dinner Menu) which was about 10 oz. for $ 49 and had 2 Tanqueray and Tonic’s (easy ice, double lime), Clam Chowder and a Double Baked Potato. Total was $ 79 plus tip.
Lobster — nice and tender, good seasoning, I did get some shell on a bite or two but, no biggie… it IS SHELLfish after all.
Clam Chowder — creamy, clammy, warm and tasty. I dipped my Garlic Bread in it, super good.
Double Baked — Visually it’s meh… nothin fancy, could have used bigger potatoes too. Flavor is good though, I just wish there was more potato.
While talking to the waitress/​bartender she did say that there is live music on the weekend. I haven’t been there too see it but, I was told (by staff) that it was a good time.
I’ll be back to Outriggers again, the Lunch menu is very reasonably priced so maybe next time I’ll try one of those meals… Smoked Salmon sounds good.

We came here for my sister’s 50^th birthday. I thought the food was very good but a little on the expensive side. Our waitress was very friendly and helpful.
I ordered the whole sea bass which was a special that night. The fish tasted good and was fresh but at $ 39.00 it wasn’t worth the price. Included with your food is either soup or salad and free unlimited garlic bread pieces. My wife and sister had the shrimp scampi and the shrimps were huge and tasty. They also have a big choice of drinks including flavored martinis at $ 8.00 a glass.
Overall we had a good time and enjoyed ourselves. The bill including tip came to around $ 300.00 for 6 of us and that included the bar tab as well. This is one restaurant I’d try again.
