Editorial Review for The Ramp – by Jennifer Joseph
The Scene
A few dozen plastic tables with chairs crowd the ancient wooden deck of this erstwhile bait shop, which hugs the industrial edge of the bay. On sunny days, the Ramp is packed with casual city dwellers armed with stiff drinks, enjoying the view of the working waterfront.
The Food
The something-for-everyone menu includes burgers, sandwiches and salads to omelettes and pancakes for weekend brunch. The real draws here are the setting and the full bar, especially the potent bloody marys and fresh-squeezed orange juice. Among entrees, many offerings, such as curly fries and burgers, are commercially prepared and simply tossed in the deep-fryer or on the grill. Green salads consist of fresh mesclun mix loaded with bottled dressing. Hearty omelettes, like the bacon, avocado and cheddar version, are sided with a big pile of greasy home fries.

Insider Tips
The ExtrasOn weekend afternoons, there's live salsa music, dancing and an outdoor barbecue.
Know Before You GoNo reservations are accepted. Though enormously popular on sunny days, the tables are turned over at a furious pace. Get a drink from the bar and relax with the view.

Thursday evening we stopped for a quick drink on the way home from work and we couldn't believe our eyes! Not only was a Latin Trio playing (members of Los Compas), but they were serving ciopinno & osso bucco! We tried the crab cakes & onion soup first @ the bar. Then finally got a table, called the babysitter, and stuck around for entrees. We talked to the bartender & he let us in on the scoop. The Ramp just got a new chef who is making ALOT of changes(including Thurs. night dinner & music). I glanced over the lunch menu, wow! I think we'll keep an eye on the Ramp this summer, looks like there's ALOT more to come.

It is a great place to go have a bloody mary on a Sunday morning, especially if it is warm and sunny out. The food is just average. The waitresses used to be really hot until they got rid of the blonde goddess punk rock hottie Lynn Perko. It is a good place to get wasted in the sun with your friends on the weekend, but if you want great food, there are many other places in the city.
Pros: bloody mary's
Cons: marginal food
