The wait staff tries, they smile a lot, but can't keep the orders organized. Kept bringing us the wrong order (was ordered by another table). We were hoping they's give one of the other tables our bill. No such luck. At least we got our bill, not someone else's. The only thing delivered correctly the first time was the bill. Pros: Nice view of bay and boats Cons: inexperienced staff more

Im not going to write a story, sorry waste of my time..... 1. Owner ( Fred ) throws food at employees and customers. 2. Drinks take about 30-45 min 3. Food takes about 1 hr and very poor quality the lobster is very cheap and they say lobster bisque but be AWARE that item has no lobster. 4. The oldest manager is 27 and David the so called manager is child and ran away from our complaints. If it was legal I would have knocked him out for insulting my fiance. p.s. If you read this reply wisely as I would love to have a talk man to man. 5. The wait staff for the most part will try there hardest to please the guests but management makes it hard for them, so please dont take out anger on the wait staff as they do try there best. Thanks for reading....... Pros: The View (Thats It) Cons: everything and the owner can go f--k himself ( FRED ) more

Awful! 5/21/2009

Total disappointment. Food was bad, literally bad. Oysters were not edible. I ordered the chicken and apple wrap but came without the apple, and my boyfriend had to remind the waitress about his margharita about 3 times. It finally arrived, but without the salt. Who does that? Thought it was just our night but tables around us were having the same problems. Food orders were dropped, service was terrible, and the manager (who looked that he was 18 yrs old) could not keep up with the complaints. As a good offering, they brought over free apps, but it contained shell fish that my boyfriend was allergic too. Wish they asked us what apps we would like to have on the house before just bringing it over. Good news, the oysters & drinks were taken off the bill. Highlight of the night, the restaurant has a great view of the sun setting. Pros: Perfect view of sun setting Cons: Service more

Great Waterfront Location 5/10/2009

I was surprised to see the negative reviews on here. I had lunch here with a girlfriend on Friday and they staff could not have bene more hospitable. We wanted to get some sun and the only table that was getting good sun was a round circular table that could sit a larger party. They had no problem accomodating us at hte larger table even though it was just the two of us. Our food was brought out quickly and was delicious. Our server was pleasant and checked in frequently to make sure everything was going well. I would definetly go back here and recommend it to others. Pros: toasted buns brought to table more

Worst Service 4/29/2009

Server's name Lindsay. She seemed very professional at the start. Then it all went down, the drinks came 25 minutes after we sat down, we placed our order, and then 15 minutes later she came back stating they were out of grilled chicken, so we had to replace the order again. My kid;s food never came, 45 minutes later, she brought bread which she managed to drop a few pieces on the floor and then place the basket with 2 pieces of bread and 2 used side plates, the plates had old food and a tooth pick still sitting on them. This bread was clearly left overs from customes that had since left the establishment. We asked to speak to the Manager, who did not sympathise with the situation, he quickly got the bread out of the way and left as fast as he could. Lindsay all the while was giving all her attention to the table next to ours which had 5 good looking men. I cancelled the order, I will NEVER EVER go back to Skyline. We asked for the check, and she gladly gave us a tab which belonged to the table next to us $ 110. this is one of my worst experiences ever. This establishment does not care about the customer's satisfaction. They could all learn a few things from the sorrounding restaurants. We had dinner at Sirros next door and the service was excellent. more

treated horribly by owner 4/28/2009

lilygrace Provided by Partner
as we waited an hour and a 1/2 just for our fried chicken (which by the way he tried to take credit for Fontaines' success) we watched in horror as the owner threw food into the kitchen at the cooks, sat and drank, treated staff HORRIBLY for HIS shortcomings, and threw guests out or insulted them when they complained to him. half of what was on the menu was not available on the beautiful summer day. i went up to talk to him about how badly he looked at his behavior, and he told me that if i think i could do a better job, get my butt (not the word he used!) in the kitchen and DO IT! this is how he treats paying customers. i watched him do this to several other guests. that is COMPLETLY UNPROFESSIONAL AND RUDE-we pay HIS salary!! i am appalled at being insulted, after we waited (not OUR fault!) and will NEVER return-which he actually told us NOT to, like there was any choice on HIS part! neither will all the friends of ours who have gone there with the same results. in this poor economy, ppl should be greatful that guests are still coming out to spend money in their establishment. and this is only the BEGINNING of the seasonl. obviously, he doesn't care about running this DUMP into the ground. you can tell he does not care about anything but HIMSELF. what a shame, this is a beautiful goldmine of a location, i hope next season something else takes it's place, it's sad that ppl visiting from out of state who go here will leave with a bad taste in their mouth of Marina Bay. what a shame! Pros: servers compassion Cons: everything from food to wait to owner more

Avoid at all cost 7/8/2008

The worst experience of my life. "Bad service" is not enough to describe it. Not only that the server brought us dishes/drinks we never ordered and then charged us for it, she then insulted us every time we returned the wrong dish or drink and asked for the one we actually ordered. When time to pay came and we provided number of credit cards to pay for the mediocre food and awful service we got charged the whole amnt to one of the credit cards only and were insulted repeatedly when we pointed the mistake ( the bill had to be spitted between few credit cards). Eventually we could not deal with it anymore and 40 min later we asked for the manager, who wasn't much of a help either. So after another 30min we just gave up. Our designated payer had to carry a bill for a party of 6 and we all felt like we just got dragged through the mud for a "well spent" $$$. So if I could rate this place a minus ten I would. Pros: parking Cons: everything else more

would definately recommend 7/5/2008

We were a little hesitant to try this restaurant after reading some of these reviews. On a busy Saturday night, Fourth of July weekend, most restaurants had ridiculous wait times... we tried it. We were so glad we did! The Skyline is under new management we were told! We were seated quickly, had an awesome server, and the food was unbelievable! We enjoyed this establishment so much we spent our evening enjoying cocktails on the deck watching the waterfront. I can't say enough good things about our experience here; we went back Sunday morning for their brunch. It was a repeat performance of the previous evening. There was quick service, great food, and a wonderful atmosphere. Definitely give this place a chance... we thought it was very enjoyable. Bobby (new mgr.) Great job! Pros: Great service, food, and ambience! Cons: We didn't experience any! more

Horrible!! 6/29/2008

Mafiabossweymouth Provided by Partner
The food is less then acceptable,management seems good but frustrated as they work with what they have...which isn't much!!!!!!!! The supposed owner seems to be more of a pain in the butt then an asset to the well being of Skyline. Servers dressed in horrible colors and probably underpaid which would explain lack of service. Overall this guy should quit while he is ahead and sell this place to someone who has a clue! Pros: view Cons: horrible all around more

Terrible service and terrible food! 6/8/2008

I had the unfortunate experience of dining at Skyline recently. I can't recall visiting such a poorly run establishment. Whilst half the outdoor tables were empty we were left waiting 30mins for an outdoor table. Several guests left in frustration. We should have left too... The Oysters were covered in a green slime, and clearly inedible. The haddock was bone try. We had to ask our server several times for bread, water etc and the bread actually arrrived after we had finished eating. The management have clearly employeed cheap labor and nobody over the age of 25. Lets see where that strategy gets them... Pros: View Cons: Terrible food, and service to match more

never for a function 4/29/2008

sanho Provided by Partner
Slow service--long wait time ---meals arriving at all different times. The food was overcooked. The medium steak was well done and the seafood was rubbery. We waited for a very long time between courses. People were uncomfortable because there was more than a half hour between when the first and last were served and they were embarrassed to eat in front of people who had not been served. Orders were wrong and then took forever to fix. Food was only ok---probably would have tasted better warm. This was a very small function( under 20)---should not have been a peroblem. Pros---the view. Cons---everything else. more

Great seafood. 11/27/2007

I was recently in Boston. I live in Florida. I was hoping for some great seafood at the waterfront. A friend recommended Skyline at Marina Bay in Quincy. I was hesitant since it was not a downtown restaurant. What a surprise! My wife had the swordfish and I had scrod. Fabulous flavors and a really big portion for not a lot of money. I wish there was a Skyline here in Florida. Just great!! A Boston hidden jewel. more

Best Lobster Deal Anywhere!!!! 12/20/2006

Congrats to the new Skyline Restaurant Management! What a turn-around this establishment has been through in the past few months! We live in Marina Bay and go often for incredibly delicious, plentiful, affordable and amazingly large menu. The waitstaff is courteous and attentive. The decor is smart and clean with well lit tables for reading the vast menu. We've recently experienced their weekend lobster specials (be sure to sign up for their email list!). The lobster was available in 1-2 lbs, either boiled or baked stuffed and the prices ranged from $9-$30 - INCREDIBLE. It's definately worth giving Skyline a second chance - you'll be amazed! Enjoy the view too! Pros: Lobsters, view, selection Cons: too busy to get into during the summer more
