I recently dined at the "Boatyard" and had a mixed experience. The restaurant boasts a wonderful ambience and sets the mood with great music, although it tends to be quite loud. However, I couldn't help but notice that the staff appeared visibly stressed, possibly due to being overworked or poorly treated by the management. On the culinary side, the seafood bisque was a delightful surprise with its exquisite flavors, it had unique and unexpected taste profiles without being too heavy.
Unfortunately, the paella fell short of expectations; it was too buttery, the rice had an unpleasant texture, and the seafood lacked flavor. In summary, I'd rate the "Boatyard" a 7/10, with room for improvement in staff well-being and certain dishes.
