The Dolphin - Barnstable

Great restaurant, amazing service. Highly recommend this to anyone who’s coming to the cape for the first time like me. I loved the shower and cod cakes, I’d never had one before but it was the best place to go for one. Reasonably priced and overall a great environment.

This is a must if you visit the town of Barnstable in Cape Cod. Be ready to pay the price for good food (not extravagant but more than most family restaurants well worth the cost). The service is excellent, the food was amazing both times I have visited. Definitely worth every penny. This is such a lovely place to eat and relax. You can’t go wrong with any fish you order.

The steak was overcooked. Prices are way overpriced for the food that you get there was a lobster corn meal. Could not taste the lobster. Again scalps or perfectly, but there was no taste of Lobster at all. Service was great. And my drink unfortunately was made wrong. They mixed the Baileys with a different kind of vodka and a coagulated, it was like drinking cottage cheese.

We have found the Dolphin to be a dependable place for lunch. Food is usually good, prices are reasonable, and service is prompt. Decor is a bit dated, and the dining room is dark and gloomy. Men's restroom is from the middle ages.

We were kind of late on Sunday after our whale watching. We arrived at 8:20 they stop serving at 8:30 but they let us in. I had a delicious Scallops and Risotto meal and my sister had the half chicken that literally fell apart from being so tender. We had homemade bread and a salad too. Very good and fast meal.
