The restaurant cteam says that due to the encouragement and support from so many people, the creation of Captain Ron's was made possible.

"We are so grateful for the well wishes, offers of help and the successful fundraiser that benefited our staff. We are excited to be offering the same great menu that so many of you loved as well as a few new things for you to try. You will be welcomed by many familiar faces as several of our staff are returning."

They say they want to thank everyone for their patronage over the past 30+ years.

Hello I love your cookies

SOMETHING IS NOT RIGHT HERE...

Did the fire department determine the cause of the Dory Cove fire?

Why did the restaurant change its name? I thought that when a restaurant moves location the old name follows. The new name change implies that Captain Ron is not Dory Cove but is a brand new restaurant.
