"Enjoyed our early dinner at Bridges on Mother's Day. Bright and comfortable, very nice view of the water which enhanced the dining experience. Food was presented well and tasted very good. We had a problem with one of the meals and it was promptly corrected. Only downfall is the acoustics (sound level) which seems to amplify all the conversations going on even though it was only moderately busy."

"Food is excellent but pricey. Four entrees and one appetizer with iced tea and sodas was $150. Definitely a special occasion place for dinner. Their lunch menu is much more reasonable but limited to small plates and sandwiches. Service is excellent."

"First time visit. The service was very good. Waiter was friendly and attentive. Awesome view of the water. Tried a variety of items: Fried oysters and the crab dip for appetizers. Awesome. The crab cakes and crab pizza for dinner. Love it. Creme Brule and Blondie chocolate chip coconut brownie...Perfect ending."

"We had been before with another couple. Had such a wonderful experience, we took other friends. There is always the fear that when you return after highly recommending a place that it won't live up to the recommendation. The second friends loved it, too. Great location. Great food. Great service."

"went to this restaurant on Valentines. The food was fantastic. Excellent filets, great sides and good wine. Waitress a little slow and didn't seem familiar with menu even though she said she had been there for over a year. Bus boy spilled sauce on my wife while clearing the table, clearly was an accident but still he seemed new and didn't do a great job cleaning up. Manager was super nice and apologetic for bus boy. Overall the food made the experience very good. I would recommend, should be fantastic spot during warmer weather with nice open deck and great views of the Narrows."

"I enjoyed my visit to Bridges. The fried oysters were crisp and delicious. The scallop risotto was good, but the black pepper overpowered the sweet scallops! The chocolate / peanut butter pie was very sweet and quite tasty! You have to ask for bread, but it was worth making the request (and worth the wait)."
