Damn good food again at Fagers Island. Nashville Hot Chicken sandwich, Filet Mignon and Seared Ahi Tuna. Everything was very very good !!!

I have loved fager's for some time now! Ive been to the restaurant for take-out, fine-dining, and regular outdoor dining. I have yet to stay in the hotel. On this visit, we sat in the covered patio area, as it was a little chilly out. We took a long from coastal highway down a long dark road, it could be a little better lit coming from the back way. So I don't recommend that route if you can help it. The restaurant was bustling, but our service was efficient. The crab cake entree is still good but now that it is more expensive, it seems less worth the price for what you get. The live music was a nice touch. So you can eat and then go dance it off. This does create a louder environment, so choose where to sit based on your mood. I'd definitely return to sit out on the water.

Short story: Made last minute reservations for 4 on a Sunday night in the fine dining side. So glad we did! The service was great, views were amazing, and most of the food was outstanding. Get the Basil-infused Strawberry crème brûlée if they have it! Make sure to head out to the docs for sunset, the music & views are awesome. Long story: Appetizers we had weren't anything special. Calamari was a bit chewy, but the sauce was awesome. Escargot was decent but also a bit chewy. My husband got the filet, and it was served on the most delicious bed of caramelized onions on top of mashed potatoes. My daughter had the Nantucket risotto, again the seafood was just ok, but the risotto was phenomenal. There was a bed of arugula salad covering everything - If they just replaced the arugula salad on top of the dish with asparagus it would put this dish over the top! I had the Steak & Cake, and my filet sat on a huge crouton/fried bread thing that was so simple & delicious. Son had the Surf & Turf and ate every last bite. Lobster was nice and tender. To top off the night we shared 3 desserts, but the Basil-infused Crème Brûlée had the most amazing basil flavor! Pretty sure the crème brûlée flavors rotate, but this needs to be a staple!

We had a great evening at Fager's Island. We made reservations for the formal dining room on Tuesday evening. There is a free shuttle from the parking lot to the restaurant if you want. Once there, we were seated and greeted promptly. Order was: Chicken Liver app, Scallops, house and Caesar salad, Prime Rib, and catch of the day. Everything was fresh and delicious. Oh yeah, be aware, they play the 1812 Overture every night when the sun goes down!

Food: very good Service: very fast Ambience: Crazy view! Too crowded and noise ! Like big chaos but nice You have to make a reservation! We were lucky and were 2 person and we found a table... Try to sit outside when the weather nice. Today was windy and a bit cold. But I still like it:) Huge parking lot! And they have golf cart to carry you to restaurant and to your car back when you leave! I like it! I have more picture but there is no space! I think I will put it to my instagram page:) @basakoral

Restaurant right by the water with gorgeous sunset views. Our waiter was extremely friendly. Alcoholic cocktails here are SUPER strong. I enjoyed my crispy duck itself, but didn't care for how sweet all the things that came along with the dish. The sweet potatoes, sauce, carrots and broccoli were all sweet and sugary. I enjoyed eating the sweet potato with the duck. If you want a more savory dish, this one may not be for you. The fried scallops were delicious. Crispy outside and juicy/tender scallops inside. The seafood pasta was also delicious. There were a lot of clams in this pasta dish.

This venue has a bar, restaurant, and even a hotel. The restaurant and bar are attached to each other, but in their own separate areas with their own menus. The venue can hold a lot of people. If you are unable to find parking close by, you will be driven by a golf cart. Fine dining is available starting at 5pm. I was seated facing the bay and was able to watch the sun lower (but not set because I didn't stay long enough). I do wish they had blinds though because I was definitely blinded as the sun lowered. I felt like Johnny Cash while I wore my sunglasses inside. My party had: - Chicken livers & water chestnuts wrapped in bacon w/ a horseradish sauce ... 3/5 ... The water chestnuts were not distributed properly and the livers were a tad dry. It wasn't greasy at all and I LOVED the sauce. - Oysters Rockefeller ... 4/5 ... Light and acidic. It needed more seasoning, but it was very fresh - The day's special (catch of the day): rockfish, sautéed spinach, sun dried tomatoes, Noilly Prat sauce, fried couscous ... 3.5/5 ... The spinach was hot, but everything else was room temperature. The fish was cooked perfectly. I liked the fried couscous. It was a large portion and unfortunately bland because it lacked seasoning - "Lemon Lust": layers of lemon filling & sweetened cream cheese with a toasted pecan cookie crust ... 3.5 ... it reminded me of lemon meringue pie. The crust was good, and the layers were smooth. It wasn't tart at all and was a bit too sweet for me, but my family liked it a lot. The experience was very nice and our waiter went above and beyond to make sure we were happy. The view was beautiful and the food was alright, but I expected better due to the price. I'd like to go to the bar next time to try their less expensive options. I do recommend the fine dining menu if you want something relaxed and romantic. If I find myself there again I will probably only get drinks and appetizers.

So always heard good things about Fager's and since it's right near the St Patty's Day parade route, we decided to come here afterwards. Of course there was a wait, but honestly it wasn't as bad as I expected. We waited maybe 45 minutes to be seated, and in the meantime it was a lovely day so we were able to get drinks and sit on some benches outside. They were definitely prepared for the crowd. They had a bathroom attendant making sure things were running smoothly and quickly (her mantra was "flow and go" lol). They had plenty of staff working so the tables were being flipped quickly. I got the fish and chips and a dirty Elvis drink, which is a frozen peanut butter, chocolate, and banana drink. The food was great and that drink was delicious. I had a really nice time here and will definitely be back.
