Scrimshaw Restaurant Reviews List

Scrimshaw Restaurant

Scrimshaw is uniquely situated in historic wharf buildings right on the water in the Village of Greenport, New York. The restaurant setting reflects the history of the whaling ships that sailed from this port in the early years of the 20th century. Scrimshaw's dining room offers water views on three sides and open-air dining on the dock. Enjoy drinks in comfortable Adirondack chairs outdoors or in the bar room with windows that look out on a Greenport boatyard. Although the cuisine is contemporary American, the chef's Asian and international background is reflected in many dishes.

"We went for lunch over the weekend. They were out of several items on the menu which left a very limited selection. The fish tacos were good, but the fish was tilapia which had no taste at all. You would think being on the most eastern end of Long Island they would have had a fresh and flavorful local fish. The prices were very expensive. I would not recommend this restaurant."

"The food at Scrimshaw is consistently very good.
I have taken house guests to dinner there and they have always enjoyed it.
Guests have commented on how nice the menu is.
This weekend the food was very good as always however it was
very cold outside and difficult to keep the indoor temperature comfortable.
Also I was disappointed in the dessert selection. There was only one
item and it did not seem fresh. That is very unusual.

"We were there for a Chinese New Year celebration. A nine course extravaganza that lasted 3 hours! I can't think of a better way to spend an evening. What a lively, fun place with such carefully prepared food."
