Great Experience

by TMGraham at Citysearch

We''ve been to Admiral Risty on several occassions as a couple and with friends and family. Friends and family from out of town have commented on the good time and great food we shared at Admiral Risty. Most of the servers are fantastic.

Only disappointment was a not so great table for 2 location against the wall.

The fresh fish recommendations have always been outstanding!

We'll certainly be back!! Thank you.

• Pros: Excellent food, service, and view...
• Cons: not getting a window table

Horrible food

by DB99 at Citysearch

This is not an inexpensive place, and our expectations were high. My spouse & I were talked into specials that put the bill well over $100 for both of us. The crab legs were inedible--spouse said the meat was tasteless and rubbery, and he loves crab. My salmon was mushy. I could have handled dry, or even underdone, but this was like baby food..yuck. The best thing about the meal was the salad and coffee. When we called the next day to complain (we were with friends who frequent the place alot, and didn't want to embarass them) it was clearly not to get a free meal, but the manager was cold and unresponsive, and didn't even offer to make good on our awful dinner. Stay away.

• Pros: view
• Cons: food, management

Tasty food with 70's Character.

We had lunch on Sunday September 17. Nice view of the ocean. At night the view will be dark. Everyone was satisfied with their food. I too would say that the food is slightly over average. I had the halibut with almonds on it. It was pretty good and not over-cooked. Everyone got the same sides of fried potatoes and a steamed medley of vegetables. A small cup of fruit was served to all. Our server was good. I liked the ambience with all the seashell lights. Of course collecting those shells today is "prohibito". The restaurant was quiet, except for the two small children nearby who could make some really loud sounds. The parents thought that by talking quietly to them they would respond in kind. It didn't work.

• Pros: Good view while there is light. Ambience
