Great spot and great food. My first lobster roll on the west coast and it was fantastic. The clam chowder was excellent too. Service was friendly and quick. Will come back.

French Fries as a side are not on our menu. I politely informed this man that I could not accommodate a side order of French fries, I understand that is ridiculous to people, but no one has ever given me so much push back before. I politely informed these people that I couldn’t do that and they wouldn’t take no for an answer, I do understand their perspective. Their review was so mean and no they don’t feel any real empathy, or they would not have posted that. They insisted on getting their way and called it ridiculous and were intimidating to me, yes you bullied someone and they cried. Cashiers are people too. I promise if you visit this location so will be honest with what I can provide you and give you my best. This interaction actually stood out as the single worst interaction I’ve had with any customer in 7 months, because they were MEAN. To go out of your way to leave a one star review because you didn’t get your way is petty to say the least. I hope everyone is blessed and having a beautiful life Including Mr. Kudszus. I understand not everyone is kind and people like to make others feel bad. I love to make people happy with what I CAN do, if you are respectful to people they usually don’t cry. Take care everyone, thank you for my first negative review! Some people wake up and spread pain. I spread joy and move on to a new day.

“Stopped in with the fam (party of 6), place was empty. Tried to order 4 lobster rolls and 2 fries — nothin’ crazy. The waitress looked like a deer in headlights, started talkin’ ‘bout how she’s all alone, then bless her heart, she broke down cryin’ right there.

We felt awful for her, but y’all… that ain’t how a restaurant should run. Sure thing we left. Hands down the strangest, most uncomfortable place we ever stepped foot in.”

Very tasty food and at a very good price. Anyone that has traveled more than one block from their home knows this is a perfect spot for an affordable and delicious meal.

Came here after looking for some sort of seafood after walking and it was delicious! Can’t beat the $25 lobster roll and chowder! Would come here again!

The clam chowder has nothing for you to come back for
It is chewy and unpleasant/
The crab rolls are missing the crab
The service was good
The food not!

Expensive and minimal menu. Crab cake sandwich and new England clam chowder was good.

Great food. The clam Chowder could've been a big more creamy and thick but could not complain at all about flavor. Had clam in every bite. The lobster roll also was amazing. Best I've tried thus far.

Good restaurant in a great location right by chinatown. A good value for 25 dollars for a cup of soup and a lobster roll. You also got chips and a pickle with it. It was a slow day and not hardly anyone there so not much noise and waitress was pretty attentive. Definitely worth a try if in the area.

A satisfying meal at an incredible price. Scott’s Connecticut Style Lobster Roll was the perfect treat. Crunchy chips, coleslaw and a side of creamy Boston Style Clam Chowder was part of their award-winning recipe. Great dine-in experience.
