I come from the Virgin Islands, the island of St. John, and was visiting a beautiful friend on Block Island. She took me to every restaurant on the island, but I was never happier, more at home as a Carribean guy, than when I was at Dead Eye Dick's. We have great restaurants on St. John, but as an island...

We went to Dead Eye Dick's back about 5 yrs ago. It was awesome, on all levels. Food, service, and decor/view. While a bit on the pricey side, as apposed to other places, and taking into account that you are on Block Island. Years ago, I believe, under different ownership, it was a great experience. The wife and I had... More

We visited Dead Eye Dick's for an evening dinner during the mid-September shoulder season. The waiter told us they would only be open for 7 more days. Despite the waning season we had an excellent experience. There were only about 6 tables seated in the whole restaurant (out on the patio recommended!). Despite the slow night, we had attentive staff,... More

I was hopeful when the people coming out, comment about how happy we would be --their meal was great. i went with my senior mother and my twenty something daughter which... More

Great view of Paynes Harbor and delicious grub. The fries are yummy! Teryaki sandwich: A+ Sit on the patio, for sure.

When first entering dead eye's i was welcomed so warmly, then had the most amazing waitress tori. Her long flowing blonde beach hair, and bright eyes made me tingle. She recommend amazing dishes like the tuna tartar, noank oysters, and swordfish. I finished my meal with the devil's food tower and a cup o' joe. Tori sat and talked with... More

At about 3pm on a Sunday afternoon, we stumbled upon The Oar. But the wait was crazy - like 45 minutes to be seated. So we left and found Dead Eye Dick's. The deck was full, but there was nobody inside, so it really wasn't too busy. We were seated right away - no wait. The view from the deck... More

I ate lobster rolls at several places while on BI and the one served here was by far the best. As a bonus, it comes with great freshly-cut french fries. Service was good, and we enjoyed eating on the deck over the water, although since there was no breeze, it was hotter than we'd hoped (may have just been that... More

This rustic restaurant / bar has great vibe and lots of fun right at the entrance to Paynes Marina. There is a deck overlooking the marina that is available on a first come first served basis. On our visit we first ordered a bunch of appetizers for the table. The calamari included lots of tentacles which are my favorites. The... More
