Good service and awesome food The place was packed but the bartender was very attentive!! The atmosphere was great and lots of friendly people and staff

Astonishingly great Turkey Club Sandwich enjoyed today - Best ever - ANYWHERE. Fresh makings, immensely generous portions! I've been a customer at the Gateway for several years and have always been really happy with the meals and the service. There was always a great experience to be enjoyed. I'm blown away. Very many other meals enjoyed and to be enjoyed - "Strawberry Fields Salad" Lots of others...

We've been going here since 2008 since they are only 2 miles from my house. At first, they were consistently a 4* rating, but over time, the prices went up and the quality went down, giving them a consistent 3* rating. We still go back about once every 6 months because of the location. A few nights ago we went back and were very surprised at how much better things were. I don't know if it was an accident or a trend. The prices seem about the same, but the quality and quantity of the food was much better. Service was also top grade, but that may have been because our waitress was in training and was super focused on getting everything perfect. I ordered the Bourbon Steak Tips. In the past they consisted of uneven chunks of varying inconsistent doneness. This time, there were 4 large pieces, each cooked perfectly. In total, there was close to a pound of meat. The broccoli was cooked perfectly, but was not served as warm as it should have been. The chunky mashed potatoes were done very well and was an especially large portion. There was enough meat and potatoes left over to take home for and additional meal. My wife had Sesame Seared Tuna which she rated an overall 4*. They have wonderful bread served with garlic oil, but you have to ask for it. In the past, glasses of red wine tasted like they had been sitting around for at least a day with no preservation. To avoid that, we ordered the daily wine special for $8/glass. The wine was fresh and good and a larger then expected portion size. I had given good ratings in the past to the Strawberry Shortcake, but I just didn't have room to try it again. This experience came close to making 5*s, and we will be going back in the not to distant future to see if The Gateway will regain its ranking as one of our regulars.

Ordered the Baked Rangoon stuffed Haddock which was so good. My sides...well not so good. I ordered mashed potatoes and broccoli. The potatoes came out warm (on cool side) and the broccoli could have been cooked more to my liking. I mentioned to the waitress that the potatoes needed to be heated more. She said she would get a fresh serving, which she did, but they weren't any warmer-thus the 4 star rating. I didn't address the broccoli because it still was ok. We sat at a booth but would have preferred the bar or the deck but that but both areas were packed and we didn't want to wait. The deck area overlooks the marsh and has a nice view.

We decided to stop in this place for lunch. We sat in the outside area with a view of somebody of water. The food was delicious and the service was friendly. The inside of the restaurant had an odd smell to it, but it didn't really affect us because we ate outside. I would recommend the outdoor dining for this place.

Taco Tuesday is a favorite of ours! So many yummy choices and a beautiful view of the marsh. Service is always friendly. Get the spicy mango margarita!!!! It is sooooo good.

Husband and I moved here a few weeks ago and have been to Gateway a few times now. The food has been consistently pretty good. The menu is large and there are plenty of specials to try out. The appetizers have been very good: we love comfort food so the nachos really hit the spot. The service has been good for the most part. On busier nights it's a bit slower but this is to be expected. Everyone has been very friendly and nice. Gateway definitely has a fun atmosphere, it can be a bit loud but never to the point of being unbearable.

The husband wanted fried whole clam bellies because he's a born and raised Bostonian living in Charleston where such delicacies are not available (the waters are too warm.) The day after Labor Day has so many restaurants closed for the season, or not open until Thursday. The Gateway Tavern is a great find, with the clams done well, served with french fries and coleslaw. So many clams the sides were not touched. Their market price was about $7 below competing restaurants. The parmesan encrusted salmon served with zucchini and yellow squash plus a to die for rice pilaf, incredible. Alexis, our server was on en pointe with her suggestions, the perfect blend of friendly and attentive.

I've reviewed meals at Gateway Tavern several times, so I won't repeat all my praise for the serving staff and the quality of the food. Only gonna rant about the two things I had for lunch at the GT: Clam Chowder and Blackened Salmon Tacos. Consistency of the chowder was exactly as I like it... thin enough so my spoon won't stand in it, and thick with stuff like clams and potatoes. Home run on both counts. Probably the most clam in chowder... EVER. The salmon on the tacos was moist and plentiful, well seasoned, fresh. And the tacos were HUGE as well (see accompanying pic). Gotten accustomed to deep-fried fish on my tacos, so this was a wonderful change. BTW, GT also serves Seared Cajun Mahi Mahi Tacos. They look great too.
