    One of the best restaurants, if not THE BEST. Service was exceptional. I had the macadamia crusted St Peters fish. It was cooked perfectly. I love this place!

    Our meal was excellent as always. We moved down south but since we were up here visiting family we had to go to the Nautilus. It never disappoints!

    It was price fix night. I had the prime rib which was tasty but tough. My husband had the 2lb lobster for an extra fee. He said it was a bit dry and not very tasty.

    We always enjoy this restaurant, and this time was no exception. Nice bar selection, wonderful salads, fabulous fish and sides. Friendly, prompt service. Moderately priced. Cozy atmosphere overlooking the dock and the water.

    I had the cod which was prepared with tomatoes and capers- delicious! My companion enjoyed the filet of sole meunière. We shared our favorite burnt broccoli. Another great meal at this restaurant.
