Customer Reviews
Great Service, But the Flavor Has Faded We’ve been to this spot several times in the past, but unfortunately, our most recent visit left us pretty disappointed. It felt like the high standards we were used to have slipped, with both the food and drinks feeling like they were lacking that usual spark. The Food We both went for seafood options this time around, and the consensus was the same: The Fish Sandwich: While the portion size was fine, it tasted like it had no seasoning whatsoever. It was surprisingly bland for a place we usually enjoy. The Fish Tacos: My wife felt exactly the same way about her tacos. The freshness seemed okay, but the flavor profile was just non-existent. The Service The one saving grace of the experience was the team working the floor. The staff was very atten
Wandered in around 11:30 on Saturday before they got busy, so we were seated immediately and didn't wait long for food. They do have entrees at multiple price points, so that's helpful, and portions are reasonable. The fries came out hot and crispy but needed a hit of salt. The fish and chips cost more than I'd like but you at least get two big fillets, the breading is robust and crispy, and the fish inside is flaky and moist, so no complaints about the quality.
The food was really good (clam chowder and lobster roll). My less than 5 stars comes from the atmosphere and cleanliness. I was expecting a slightly nicer place given the location, photos online and prices but this really gave me sports bar vibes. Our table was sticky and the empty tables around us were still dirty from previous patrons. It is possible they were understaffed because I only saw one server while we were there. He was polite and the food came out quickly.
Came in to try the lobster roll, unfortunately tasted more of the carrot salad than lobster meat. $45 (CA) vs $32 (MA), just because in California everything is more expensive; two pictures from different geographical locations. Just sharing my experience: eat lobster roll when on East coast.
They do have entrees at multiple price points, so that's helpful, and portions are reasonable. The fries came out hot and crispy , very fresh! Love the sauce
