Boat House Review

I have been to this restaurant before but at another location. My unexpected 4th dine out. It was for my birthday, thank you to someone. =)

The service was not bad, the lady was really nice. I like how she was asking if we had any plans after lunch and stuff lol. The man that bought out our food, the cake tipped over and fell on his finger and he was like I'll get you a new one. So not bad.

We ordered 2 west coast seafood chowder, fire grilled sirloin, coconut pacific cod, mocha ice cream pie and seasonal crème brulee ($30 each).

The seafood chowder was ok thick and to me it had a strong cream taste. There were lots of bites and pieces in there, not bad.

Pacific cod was not bad at all. The fish was moist, not dry like the other 2 dine out that I tried this year. I guess because this one was pan seared and there was a quinoa and some sauce so it was good. The other ones were fried and dry and no flavour. The dish was well flavoured.

The fire grilled sirloin, I don't eat beef but I tried some. Wow, what a cow, that is one hard cow lol! So hard to chew, I don't know if the cow is old or they over cooked it. Otherwise the taste was ok.

 

Mocha ice cream pie, It had enough mocha flavour and there were peanuts or some kind of nuts on it. I feel like they can make the base of the pie a bit better, it tips over easily, maybe make it a bit more firm. The cream on the side, I thought it would be sweet but it had no taste or maybe the mocha ice cream was sweet so when I try the cream, it had no taste? It was not bad. Where is my candle?

 

Crème brulee, it's ok, not a big fan of crème brulee, too liquidly feeling for me, I like something more firm. The caramelized sugar were stuck to my teeth as usual.

 

Overall, not bad and the dishes were actually quite big, I was pretty full. Yes, I would come back again. However, I don't really like the location, it's hard to drive out of the place, especially when there are a lot of cars.
