About This Place

Bay Pointe Waterfront Restaurant in Quincy, MA, is a genuine gem for lovers of American seafood cuisine, perched right on the water’s edge to offer not just incredible flavors but also stunning coastal views. Known for its fresh, locally inspired menu, Bay Pointe elevates classic New England seafood with a modern twist, making it a must-visit destination for both locals and travelers passing through the area.

Step inside, and you are welcomed by a bright, inviting atmosphere that balances the casual charm of a seaside eatery with the finesse of an upscale dining experience. Whether you choose to dine indoors in a comfortable, relaxed setting or soak in the waterfront ambiance on the patio, the environment complements every bite perfectly.

The menu is a vibrant showcase of the ocean’s bounty paired with American culinary flair. Signature dishes like the Bay Pointe Lobster Roll deliver sweet, succulent lobster meat lightly tossed with mayo and a hint of lemon, nestling within a perfectly buttered bun—a beloved highlight for seafood aficionados. The New England Clam Chowder is a soul-warming classic, rich, creamy, and studded with tender clams that will have you savoring every spoonful. For those seeking a more indulgent experience, the Famous Baked Stuffed Lobster, a Bay Pointe classic, stands out as a triumph of technique and flavor, with lobster meat expertly blended into a savory stuffing and baked to perfection.

Beyond lobster, the menu features a thoughtfully curated array of dishes such as the Pan-Seared Sea Scallops, boasting a golden crust and tender interior, and the Seafood Trio, which artfully combines haddock, scallops, and shrimp in a harmonious medley. Non-seafood fans can enjoy options like the Blackened Chicken Pasta, rich with Cajun spices and creamy sauce. The appetizers provide a perfect start—imagine warm, crusty French Country Boule bread with garlic butter, or the decadently layered Oysters Rockefeller with smoky bacon and creamy fontina. The Jumbo Shrimp Cocktail with its spicy cocktail sauce is crisp, refreshing, and a timeless favorite.

Diners have also praised unique offerings such as the Lobster Avocado, an innovative dish that marries fresh lobster with creamy avocado for a delightful textural contrast. Sweet endings like the Molten Chocolate Cake bring a luxurious finish to your meal, melting decadently with every forkful.

Guests frequently mention the warm, attentive service, with servers like Eddie going the extra mile to make each visit comfortable and memorable. The live music adds a lively dimension to the waterfront dining experience, creating a vibrant social atmosphere without overpowering the conversation. While some diners prefer the quieter indoor seating to fully soak in the tastes and ambiance, the overall vibe is consistently praised as relaxing and enjoyable.

    First time at this restaurant with my family. Plenty of parking but they are busy! Originally they told us one hour wait but ended up being 15 mins. Food was delicious and it came out quick. The kids menu had plenty to pick from but is pricy at $15. Comes with drink and ice cream. My salad was okay. Nothing fancy but the chowder was delicious. NOTICE: There is a admin fee when dining here. Our waitress said it is due to inflation and it’s per item. Receipt included.

    Waterfront dinning with a spectacular view and food that rivals anything upscale restaurant in the major New England area. The staff were extremely friendly and helpful. Live music and drinks were excellent. Live music was the cherry on top of the cake. I highly recommend this place if you’re in town or simply just driving through it is definitely a destination stop.

    I'm so glad I picked this restaurant. The stuffed lobster is the BEST we've had in about 30 years. The quality, preparation (all cleaned out, meat removed from claws, mixed in the stuffing...). Our Server, Eddie, was smiley, friendly, wanted to take good care of his customers, which he did with great ease. Beautiful, relaxing atmosphere. Very comfortable. It was a nice experience and meal to remember. Thank you .

    Stopped in for drinks and apps and everything was great! The lobster avocado was so unique and a great combo! The sticky ribs were AMAZING and the clam chowder I look forward to having again. Overall a great place with a bright, fresh ambiance.

    The restaurant inside and outside is beautiful. The food is absolutely delicious. I knocked one star off of atmosphere purely because I personally am not a fan of live music. There was live music playing outside, and in my humble opinion it was too loud. Thankfully, they eventually took a break and I was able to eat my dinner in peace. - I would definitely go back but I would sit indoors. My wife had one alcoholic beverage. I didn’t. He had two seafood dinners. The check came to a little over $130.

    Amazing views, & vibes and solid seafood dishes. Came here with my colleagues for an early dinner on a weekday. The restaurant was in a secluded pier with all the boats and storage yards, so compared to other bay area restaurants I’ve been to in the area, it felt more private. The patio got eventually packed by the time we were about to leave, but we were able to snag a table right away. We started off with some oysters, shrimps, and sautéed mussels. To be honest, the oysters and the shrimps were disappointing. The oysters lacked brininess, and overall it was just too mild. The jumbo shrimp looked great, but they were slightly overcooked and came out a tad rubbery. The mussels were satisfying and the white sauce was on point. For the entrées, we opted for the scallops, swordfish, and the blackened chicken pasta. My colleague said the scallops were his favorite, and it was the most solid dish of the three. The rice grains were perfectly al dente, and I liked how they used the claw meats instead of the tail to amplify that natural lobster flavors. They also cut it in long chunks which helped accentuate its texture. Some of the scallop pieces weren’t exactly the freshest, but a solid dish overall. For entrées we had the scallops, swordfish, and blackened chicken pasta. My colleague was all about the scallops, and I’d say they were the best of the three. The rice had a good al dente bite, and I liked that they used claw meat instead of tail as it gave the lobster flavor a little more depth. Cutting it into long chunks made the texture pop too. Not every scallop tasted super fresh, but overall it was a pretty satisfying plate. The swordfish was probably the thickest I’ve ever seen served as a steak, and even with the crisped edges it stayed fairly moist. Swordfish is usually kind of boring to me, but the crunchy bits in each bite kept it more interesting. Small tip: swap the fingerling potatoes for risotto—the extra moisture makes a big difference. As for the blackened chicken pasta, it had a pleasant kick, but otherwise was pretty standard. Would come back to soak in the vibes and enjoy the waterfront setting. Food’s on par with some of the good seafood places I’ve been around Boston, but not the best in the area.

    This restaurant offers nice water views and outdoor seating. The staff is very friendly and accommodating. The food was phenomenal! I highly recommend the blue crab ravioli meal… One of the best seafood dishes I’ve had in a long time! Definitely check this place out!
