Total waste of money. Waited too long, lobster tailed was uncooked. We sent it back, I think they microwaved lobster tail, too rubbery to eat.

Just Don't – This place exists on unsuspecting tourists. They've renamed themselves, but it's the same poor to mediocre food with the high prices. The only decent place to eat on the wharf is Riva's....don't get me started on how bad the other restaurants are! I have NOT eaten at the restaurant at the end of the wharf, but all others. DO not trust any of the Gilberts, Stagnaro, MiraMar, Ideal places.

Waste of valuble wharf space – So our party of 5 decides to eat at Gilberts under the assumption it was a very good restaurant, and we could not have been more disappointed. It took almost 20 min for the waiter to take our drink and appetizer order another 25 min to take our main order. and when my $4 beer finally got to me it was somewhat warm, especially since all of it ended up down the side of my leg and on my dates dress. After an incident like that, one might think, that you would receive... spectacular service? a free... read more

Great food on the pier This is another place we like to eat when we go the pier. The seafood is always fresh. We love the clam chowder. The service is great and friendly. The view of the ocean is awesome

Okay Seafood The service is not that great at this restaurant. It took almost 45 minutes for a table inside. The hostess did not come until 10 minutes into that 45 minutes and then she left. There were other tables around the restaurant, but they could not be seated because they were understaffed. Gilbert's needs to improve their management. However, once seated they attended to our every need and the food was quite delicious. I would give Gilbert's a thumbs up and give them the benefit of the doubt that it was a hectic day ... read more

Exists for tourists only – I broken one of my golden rules and went to the first restaurant we stumbled upon in a very touristy place. We should have explored a bit off the beaten track because Gilbert's was really not great. For the most part, the food was rather bland. We suspect the crab cakes were frozen. Even the french fries were undercooked and tasteless. The salmon burger was pretty good - everything else was pretty awful.

awesome view, ample serving – the view was awesome. seals, birds and the cliffs. the place is also suitable for romantic dinners. Great first date. the food was ok. we ordered the Golden Fried Prawns, the Fried scallops and the sirloin steak. The Prawns and the scallops were fried awesomely to a golden crisp., yummy but a bit bland and too dry. Too much flour i think esp the appetizer of shrimps, too much flour. But still it wasnt bad at all. The sirloin steak on the other hand was a bit rubbery. uhm... not that great. but o... read more
