      Frying Pan is a wonderful, lively, and beautiful restaurant to visit.
      I personally could not get used to the rockiness of the ship, potentially because it was raining that day which made it worse.
      But frying pan is a lot of fun with great drinks & great food! You can't go wrong with anything.
      For its location & the fact that it's on a boat, the prices were reasonable.
      Servers are very nice as well!

      Food (5/5): Ordered the fish and chips, lobster roll, and my friend got the lobster BLT. All the dishes were delicious and well made. Also considering the boat aspect, the restaurant had relatively reasonable prices for these dishes at around $25-$32 mark.

      Service (5/5): The host and bartender taking our order were friendly and helpful. We opted for self service and got the food quite quickly. They missed the coleslaw on my lobster roll and quickly fixed it without issue.

      Ambiance (5/5): Cool restaurant on a boat. Very spacious with nice waterfront views. Just be aware if you're easily seasick that the restaurant might shake a bit. However it's mostly stable.

      Had a great experience here! Came on a weekend around sunset and the ambiance was perfect. The restaurant is on a large boat with plenty of seating. We were able to snag a table on the side of the boat with an amazing view of the waterfront.

      There's no table service. You have to order food and drinks at the bar. After ordering and paying, you're handed a buzzer.

      We ordered the fish tacos, seafood bake and a lobster BLT. The lobster BLT had huge chunks of lobster and each bite was the perfect bite. Should probably eat this asap before the bread gets too soggy. The fish tacos were a tad bit disappointing. The fish was definitely on the blander side.

      The entire experience was very enjoyable, would return for some drinks and finger food!

      I visited this restaurant on a boat and had a great time. The fish and chips and the lobster dishes were tasty and worth the price, which was reasonable for the location. We got our food quickly even though there was a small mistake with my order, but they fixed it fast. The views from the boat are really nice, but it does rock a bit, so keep that in mind if you get seasick. Overall, I enjoyed the experience and the food, and the service was friendly.

      Great views. Good food and drink. Went around 3pm on a Sunday and there we no wait. It s open seating. You order and pay at the bar. I tried the lobster roll and fried fish sandwich and both were good. Also had a glass of Pinot noir which was fine. If you get motion sickness try to sit toward the inside.

      Will definitely go back on a nicer day.

      Such a fun experience! It was lovely getting a cocktail on the Hudson on a boat. I would recommend coming here just for the experience. Take note though, If you get seasick, you may want to sit this one out (or take a Dramamine). Everyone was so kind and if I wasn't bothered by the rocking of the boat I would've eaten here.

      This is my happy place. The staff are so nice and accommodating. The food is great, American dishes and huge portions. Now, the restaurant is inviting. The view by the water is very peaceful, enjoy your company while the sun is setting. Just perfect!!

      Have wanted to try this place for some time and why not on a Thursday afternoon!! We each got a cold beer, the peach and burrata salad, fries and the Thai wings. YUM!! Food was incredible and eating with real utensils and off of real plates. Fantastic. Service was easy and Apple Pay so efficient. Get a pager and pick up your food. So many places to sit and enjoy the many views. Comfy seating too. Can't wait to come back!
