It's a bit pricy, but you're at the beach, so it's to be expected! Very good service and excellent food! Was the only clam.chisWhere around for miles!!! ??

My boyfriend and I visited The Anchor recently and had such a great time. They have a few new things on their menu and we were so excited to try them - and we were not disappointed!The lobster roll was delicious - as always! We also got oysters, calamari and the scallop ceviche. The oysters were so fresh and the calamari was cooked perfectly. My personal favorite from the meal was the scallop ceviche. The flavors were incredible and the fresh ceviche paired perfectly with the plantain chips. We love coming here when we’re in Venice and always recommend it to friends and family looking for great food, drinks and music with the most kind, thoughtful and fun staff!

The place, service and food were good. Why 3 stars? The portion to price ratio was not impressive at all IMO.Had the lobster roll which taste great, but don't expect to be full for your $30 order. Its 3 pieces of hawaiian bread that constitutes a whole roll with the lobster filling on top so it looks more substantial until you push it in the bread where it is supposed to be. Its $10 per hawaiian bread square for that entree, tacos break down to $10 per fish taco, no sides with the dishes.... seriously?!?! A little too steep for a snack.

Came for the Lobster Roll, stayed for the grilled shrimp tacos. Seriously, some of the best shrimp tacos ever, you gotta try them. And I love that they place two tortillas per taco. Also, they are so sweet and nice and kind!

The lobster bisque was pretty good. The lobster roll all right, the lobster roll was good not great, I think it was rush due to closing.

Parking: On the weekend parking can be difficult.

Went with my girlfriend Tuesday night I ordered the lobster roll and she ordered the lobster soup. A few hours later we were both taking turns to vomit and have explosive diarrhea. Don’t recommend coming here if you don’t want to get sick.

Excellent quality food, fantastic value for money. The staff is very kind, when I went there for dinner, even though they were about to close they didn't rush me, and they were all kind and friendly.

As a seafood lover who’s gone to Maine to try the best lobster rolls, I was a tad disappointed. For the portion, it was definitely overpriced. Margarita was also sadly a disappointment. Service was stellar though. If you enjoy Bubba Gump seafood or Luke’s lobster rolls, this might be the place for you.

Ate here while on vacation and got food poisoning. Not worth it. A week later, my stomach is still acting up.
