The interior features beautiful wood paneling, a large horseshoe bar, and nautical décor.

Alfresco dining in their tropically romantic patio is the most coveted spot, so consider making reservations or getting their early.

Menu

The Cottage is famous for having one of the best arrays of small dishes/tapas in the area with delectable options such as tempura shrimp, tuna poke, and Peruvian ceviche, lobster bisque, mussels, and many other options produced from the finest fresh local seafood and produce.

You’ll also find plenty of sides and a small but incredible list of fusion sandwiches and entrees such as the truffle beef filet, porcini steak medallions, lobster Make roll with Maine lobster, Hawaiian escolar, and seafood scampi.

A simple sandwich at The Cottage is a step above pub grub. As an example, the signature Cottage sandwich features a sirloin burger, Basque aioli, bacon, lettuce, tomato, and onion on a toasted brioche bun and chips on the side. Other options include Mahi, grouper, and a Billionaire burger made with a blend of beef short rib, brisket, and chuck and deliciously seasoned with truffle aioli and an onion jam.
