    Had a wonderful surprise dinner here. They knew it was a birthday celebration and were very hospitable and friendly. Dinner was delicious and the views over the Columbia were great.

    Beautiful space and wonderful service. The food was good as well. My highest marks go to the grilled salmon that was cooked perfectly. Moist and tender. We tried the pasta Alfredo, fish and chips and bouliabase as well with good reports. I am not sure I would order the chickpea cakes again but the chimmi churri sauce and carrot puree over them were very tasty. Desserts are all top notch. Blonde brownie Sunday and cobbler. I definitely recommend this spot for a nice dinner in Astoria.

    Great servers. I had a Reuben. Corned beef was very tough and difficult to eat even with a fork. The Caesar was good . I asked for light dressing and it was light.

    We really enjoyed the view and the light music being played. The food was flavorful and the drinks were nice. The service was a little slow, but I don't think it is the kind of place where you get in a hurry anyway so overall 4-5 stars

    We have been to BRIDGEWATER at least 1/2 a dozen times in the past several years. Tonight we noticed several subtle changes in the food that we are hoping are not permanent

    We requested a table set back as I was recently undergoing chemotherapy and I have no immunity. We were there to celebrate my middle daughter’s nine year old birthday. They went out of their way to make it special for us with candles and flowers. They also gave us an appetizer as well. The food is outstanding as well as the attentive and knowledgeable staff. We appreciate their efforts in making it a special night during a difficult time.
