The Chantey At Marina Bay

Went here for lunch today.  It's OK...not great.  The Caesar salad was very good but the clam chowder had very little clams in it.  The entrees are pricey.......$18 for steak tips??  Really??  The drinks were good and service was good.   If I am in the area I'd stop back but it's not worth a special trip.

I like this and consider it a gem.  One of the best hamburgers I have found in greater Boston.  Casual atmosphere, modest menu done well.   10 cent wings on Sunday.    Lots of great TVs.   Perfect for burgers sports and beer.    Four stars for doing what they do well.

Another case of redeeming a Groupon Coupon which would have been better spent on a meal at home.

Clam Chowder was terrible. The 1st thought that came to my mind was that it tasted exactly like Campbell's or Progesso's clam chowder. One spoonful and I was done.

I got the fisherman's platter.
- The fish was OK. Nothing worth a special drive to Quincy for
- Scallops were decent.
- Clams and squid were overbreaded, greasy and cold.
I (king of all plate cleaners) only ate 1/2 my meal.

The only highlight of the meal were the rolls as they were toasted and crunchy.
Other than that, I can think of anything good to say about the meal.

What is it with Groupons and mediocre meals?
BTW - The Fish & Chips modeled for their Groupon add looks nothing at all like the Fish & Chips my partner was servered at dinner...

There are much better options out there for your money.

I will spare them posting this to my facebook page
