The Scene – Once a well-kept secret, Captain Marden's bright, clean dining room often features a wait for one of its two dozen seats (no reservations are accepted). A handful of counter seats are perfect for those dining alone or in a hurry. With plastic utensils, styrofoam plates, and an incredibly young waitstaff, don't expect to be pampered. This is a popular spot for families and seniors. A retail shop sells fish of all stripes, both fresh and frozen. – – The Food – Many of the city's top chefs use Captain Marden's wholesale arm as their primary supplier of…

Extremely rude service, poorly managed, with poorly trained staff

by charles196 at Citysearch

This has to be the most poorly managed restaurant I have visited in years. The older hostess/manager is extremely rude. After waiting for 40 minutes while 5 tables were open, she came to our table to take our order 1 minute after we got the menu. Not being ready, she told us that we "better be ready when she comes back"!! We resisted and said we just sat down, but got an evil eye from her each time she passed. The is no reason to pay money to get this kind of treatment. The restaurant should just get a better manager, train the staff right, and run this restaurant at a more respectable level. The food was very average, but cheap. Maybe that's why some people put up with her attitude. Folks, its the worth the discount to dine here.

  • Pros: Cheap average food
  • Cons: Extremely rude hostess, poorly trained wait staff
