The Applewood smoked bacon, perfect over-easy eggs, and grits were a huge treat and gave us energy for our walks. Dinner also very good, although the tuna tartar came with an overpowering red sauce.

Make a reservation for dinner because this place is popular. The french onion soup was savory with lots of cheese. Pepper crusted ahi tuna was served over whipped sweet potatos - yummy! Wait staff were excellent. Highly recommended!

Stopped in here upon our arrival in Chincoteague. Everyone had some variation of seafood and everything was fantastic. The atmosphere was small town but in a pretty, elegant way. A delightful way to start our vacation!

What can I say about Bill's ...but you should go there. Hands down the best seafood restaurant on the island. Husband got the Smothered Flounder. It was so huge it covered the entire plate. The crab imperial that topped it was delicious. I got the broiled seafood platter. Also very good and with so much on it I could barely... More

This is an upscale place without the food quality. Not bad, but don't expect too much. We made a reservation and still had to wait a few minutes to be seated. On our table was a spread of packaged crackers and a strange orange ball (I did not know that's what it was until I asked), which is processed cheese.... More

I really like this place, but it is kind of un-even in its quality. The first night I had the oyster casserole and the clams as a pair of appetizers for a light dinner. The oyster casserole was a special, so maybe I shouldn't be too dismissive of it, but it was simply overpowered by the bacon a bread crumb... More

Checked TA and asked for recommendation from our hotel staff and decided on Bill's. We were certainly looking for seafood in this area. Decided on the Smothered Flounder even though flounder is not our favorite since it seemed to be a specialty. It was great with shrimp, scallops, crab and sauce. Really a nice dish. Seared tuna app also a... More

After looking at the various TripAdvisor reviews, my honey and I decided to check out Bill's. It was during lunchtime and there weren't a lot of customers. The atmosphere was nice and we loved the Jazz that was playing. Seems like they may have taken on a different style than what the previous pictures show. I wish I could remember... More
