We had meals at both places multiple times and prefer the Boathouse for its interesting menu, location and, above all, service. Fultons' service has never been satisfactory for us. A luck of the draw? Chance? Who knows.
We dined at the Boathouse three weeks ago in the main dining area and had enjoyable meal, very good wine selections and live music. On a previous visit, we enjoyed the Tony Escapa Trio, a talented jazz-flavored combo.
All the best!
