    Food was good, service was good and prompt. We were seated within 15 minutes of reservation which is totally acceptable, especially on a beautiful Sunday evening when it's busy. Overall I would recommend and would definitely return.

    Good food. Fine waitstaff. Would like to see more non-deep fried fish on the menu. Also, can the canned music be turned down a bit? I know I'm beginning to sound like my parents, but I'd really like to hear my friends at my table rather than the 2010's Top Forty!

    We had a fantastic Father’s Day dinner at Captain’s Quarters! The atmosphere was perfect—relaxing with beautiful views of the water, which made the evening feel extra special. The fish tacos and tuna tataki were absolutely amazing—fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. Our server, Melissa, was very attentive and fun, and everything came out just right. It was the perfect place to celebrate and make memories. Highly recommend for any special occasion or just a great night out!

    CQ has been one of our favorite restaurants since 1970. We're there at least once each month.
