Our family loves dining here as do many of our friends. Very casual and non assuming. Al, owner & host is fantastic and you'll enjoy his stories if he has time to share one. It's the only friend seafood on the Cape that I'll eat. Very Kitschy & interesting ambience --go with the flow and you'll have a great time!

Don’t be deceived, this place is a must! The owner, Al makes for a memorable dining experience. He really is a gem, he takes care of his customers! He greeted us, let us know to help ourselves at the bar….literally go behind the bar and serve yourself….brought our table of 4 numerous appetizers from his fresh seafood purchase. He literally lets you create your own menu. I had fresh grilled tuna and my husband had the fish n chips….both great choices! After dinner, he brought a platter of can-o-lies….SO good! He sent us home with more of the dessert. Al is the real deal and was a joy to talk to. Thanks again Al!

I drove by this hidden gem it was such a lovely place after looking at a rental near by and as soon as I walked in I was greeted like I was family I was fed very generously and oh man was the seafood fresh like the ocean, the dessert was amazing but the host Al and conversation was PRICELESS!!

Went to Moorings tonight for dinner. This is not your regular dinner experience, this is Al and Moorings, you won't find that anywhere else around but here in the Cape.The food is great and the athmosphere is awesome. Al tells you to go behind the bar and get your drink. He's a very nice and friendly guy who runs this great place for decades already. It's always a great experience to dine at Moorings. We will be back soon...!

Al is the best, he makes you feel like family the first time you ever meet him. The fish fry is the best deal in town for 10 for fish and chips (fries) every night. .

I advise you this place for a very good moment around tasty food. Al is at your service and doing his outmost to please you. He has opened his restaurant in 1987 and we can tell he loves his job. The food is really good value for money, fresh and diversified. It’s a kid-friendly place too with a small dedicated area where you can find toys. We’re on a road trip, coming from France, we arrived late and thus were the only clients and he sat at our table between dishes preparation and we shared good laugh. I truly recommend!

I loved everything about this quirky place! It’s literally like going to dinner at your best friend’s place. Al is an incredible host with great stories and hospitality. The seafood is delicious and you grab your own drinks from behind the bar. So fun.

Waitress Elizabeth was incredibly friendly and gave Great service. Food was hot and well prepared. You won’t leave hungry and they keep bringing you surprises…things to try. Amazingly gracious and giving. Definitely a selfless owner as he kept bringing us food to try. They are very flexible with their menu and your needs. It reminds me of a no frills but cool place in Maine we used to go to. It’s not fancy but the atmosphere is super fun.
