A fairly new new restaurant on the local scene, the BoatHouse, has thrown its cap into the Restaurant Week ring.
“I used to do it in Washington, D.C.,” says co-owner Al Chadsey, “and it was great— a great opportunity to get people out to the restaurant who ordinarily would not come out.”
Located at the northern edge of site of Seminole Square Shopping Center at the site of what used be Maverick’s, the BoatHouse opened last October with classic American cuisine. Chadsey notes that one of the two featured entrees during Restaurant Week is actually his #2-selling item, a grilled, wild Atlantic salmon. The menu also includes Danish baby back ribs.
A Google search shows literally dozens or even hundreds of restaurants in America called the Boat House, but this one is a creation unto itself, says Chadsey.
July 10 update: The BoatHouse has just unveiled a more extensive menu that now includes, among other things, prime rib as well as a surf & turf selection featuring a filet mignon and crabcake.
