Arrive early (5-5:30) or expect a wait, even when it's not tourist season! Excellent selection at the bar, amazing menu with many mouth-watering staples as well as specials each night. A little pricey, but worth it. Chic atmosphere, knowledgable wait staff... You must check it out if/when in Chatham!

My wife and I went here in early June; I was excited based on what I saw on TripAdvisor. The food was fine, pricey but good and worth it. Our waitress was great, too. What sticks in my mind, however, is what happened at the beginning of our visit. We were told there was an hour wait, so we put... More

OK, so I NEVER go to the same restaurant twice while on vacation, but after dinning at Del Mar, I went back the next night to see if it was as excellent as I thought it was the first time. IT WAS! On this vacation, we had dinner in Boston at Mare’ Oyster Bar, Abe & Louis and Terramia. In... More

There are no reservations but its worth the wait having a few cocktails at the bar to experience Del Mar. We go there year round but our favorite time of year is summer when they serve the Lobster Pot Pie. Melt in your mouth amazingness. Sadly they didn't have it while we were there for Memorial Day weekend so I... More

This was our first visit, and we really enjoyed it. Great food, great presentation, and great service. Joni, our waitress, was friendly, knowledgeable, and helpful. We will be back.

We have given this restaurant a couple tries to impress and each time they failed. I can deal with mediocre service but this was just bad. During our last visit we waited about 20 minutes before any waitress or staff even acknowledged our presence at a table. We actually timed it to see how long, we finally walked out because... More

We enjoyed a delicious meal at Del Mar while visiting Chatham. There were two of us and we both had meals that we are still raving about. I had the wood roasted cod. My husband ordered the beef cheeks. We both found the flavors to be fresh, unusual and delicious. The atmosphere was very nice and our server was delightful.... More

Great seafood and very nice atmosphere. A true gem we found in Chatham after a week of junk food in NYC.

We have a place on Cape Cod and eat at Del Mar at least ten times a year. The menu has great variety featuring fresh seafood, game, pizza etc. My wife often orders fresh seafood, occasionally very good pizza and I love the duck. Their onion tart is outstanding as one of your appetizers. The owner, John is very hands... More

Salmon dinner was a hit with one member of our party and two raved about the chicken/gnocci dish. One said "it was the best chicken dish I ever had!". This is from someone who travels and dines out a lot. Thumbs up! Good martini too (Raspberry, grapefruit essence...yum.)
