I've been to Skates before in 90's. It was always an elegant place with good food and a beautiful view of the bay. Today, my husband and I went again. The hospitality was great. The menu needs help however. Though it's known as a seafood restaurant, they need to offer a more poultry and beef dishes. The Lemon Thyme chicken was tough and dry and flavorless . The Vegetables were under cooked. I didn't like it much. I hope Skates can explore a better Poultry menu. Otherwise, Skates is a great place.

My best friend had her wedding reception here they could not have picked a better location. The staff, food and ambiance were excellent. It was so beautiful looking out over the bay at night with the city lit up. The whole experience was very magical. At the end of the meal the wait staff brought out rewards cards good for several locations all over the United States.

The main reason we go here is it's on the bay. The food is mediocre at best. The service takes forever to get. I had a caesar salad with supposed fresh crab. It looked like the crab taken out of a Chicken of the Sea can. It tasted like straw. The floors look like they haven't been cleaned in years and if you have any doubts to what I say look towards the ceiling and the fans. There is so much dust on them I'm afraid if they ever turn them on they would cover every ones food with dust that's how long they have not been cleaned. Now don't get me wrong I've been coming here for years and will come back again. My wife loves the fresh oysters and to be on the water is wonderful. The servers were always pleasant but they take so long to come back. Just do not go there for a great dining experience.

Had lunch. Service was decent, for Friday afternoon. Prices a little high but wonderful view. Crab Louie salad was small (but good) for the price. And sushi was lightly cooked, which was odd. But it tasted good.

The food and service is excellent. I have tasted calamari done in many different ways, but OMG they have best calamari I've ever tasted. Every bite is an explosion of flavour and the toppings were out of this world. I high recommend it.
