It's closed!!!!!! The website looks active and it even has an "online order" button but there is brown paper on the doors and windows. We drive out of our way to come here. They need to take their website down if they are out of business!!!

Delicious clam chowder, perfect for those cold days. They also offer ice cream which I assume would be great for the warmer days... I will be sure to come back for that. Staff was friendly, food has been great every time we have been here!

This place sneakily has the best burger in the Newtown area. Like 12 bucks gets you a brioche bun, beef, lettuce, tomato, bacon, and some sort of Kraft single. Class act. The entire menu is delicious and reasonably priced, and you should go here. Get the cinnamon sugar dough boys too. Change ya life

Not bad French fries are meh Disappointing to see styrofoam to go containers. Shrimp was well portioned.

Should have tried the chowder,the lobster bisque, too SPICY, had to search for the minuscule pieces of lobster! $10 ?? Are you kidding.. Head out to Captain's Catch in Milford, if you want fantastic bisque. $6.00 Best Ever, tons of lobster

Online tips go to the store. Not the kids working.Cash tips get split between everyone there, not the person in the front doing all the work. Tax is 3% the normal tax fee. $11.00 an hour the kids are making which is under minimum wage. The oil they fry in gets shared upon the seafood and fries..bad for allergies. No fish and chips, weird.

Brought my 18 year old daughter for a tour of NYC and New Jersey. Wonderful time.

Came back a second time and ordered the cold lobster roll with a cup of chowder. The key items here, the lobster and chowder, were on point! Good food for a great price. I would highly recommend. The the side of fries were too salty for me yet the coleslaw was a bit bland for my preference. All in all, the stars of the dish shined so I'd definitely come back.

We bought cold lobster rolls, chowder and cinnamon doughboys. They were all excellent. Next time I'll pass on the fries that come with the rolls. We were full.

I’ve eaten more than half of this platter but the seafood platter was delicious and fresh. The chicken strips for kids was quality chicken and flavorful and the lobster grilled cheese was good as well. The cheeseburger was just okay but my son who is picky liked it more than I did. The fries are just ok but I’m super partial to certain fries and these aren’t it. Onion rings were really crunchy and tasty! We will definitely be back!! There was something for all of us here. Ice cream and Oreo stuffed dough boys for next time bc we are stuffed

After a long day of driving we managed to find Captain Lou's--don't turn off your common sense when turning on your GPS! We were pleased that dine-in was available... both had claims, I added a cup of lobster bisque. The food arrived quickly and was piping hot! (Note that you order and pay at the counter, food is delivered to your table.) The only downside we could come up with is that a larger selection of drinks would be nice... we didn't have room to try the ice cream, but it looked great! Everything looked clean... decor is a bit... cute? LOL This is not a fancy place but it's classy and the food is great!
