Great experience at Fords! The NE Clam Chowder was one of the best I've had, and with our server's recommendation we got dessert... the bread pudding is phenomenal!
Pretty much flawless from apps to the caramel sauce on my bread pudding. Wonderful staff. I hosted my family and it was a home run.
Been there many times. Haven't had a bad meal yet. Always hard to decide what to have. Too many good choices.
Definitely not worth what they charge. Bisque bomb was 64.00 with super thin bisque and 2 pieces of extremely chewy lobster, and lobster roll bread fell apart. Rolls were very small. No outdoor dining area.

We chose Ford's because we were craving Lobster. We were really looking forward to having hot lobster.... As you can see, our rating is a 3, and that would be for the lobster. The appetizer of hot shrimp with garlic butter was DELICIOUS. Highly highly recommend. We kept that dish so that we could keep dipping in the garlic sauce. My son's lobster risotto was way too cheesy and he could barely taste the lobster, the cheese took over the taste of the dish. When I gave feedback to the waitress, she got very defensive. I own a business and appreciate when people politely give feedback, but she instead defended how it was made. My dish was lobster that she helped me create it being on the spinach salad. It was supposed to be the hot lobster, but the lobster was cold and surprisingly expensive, of what we created of lobster meat put on a salad. Now that I read the other reviews, I see that I am not the only one surprised by the unexpectedly high price. Our waitress again got defensive when I had asked why the price was so high when I had just asked to have lobster put on top of the salad. Not the experience we were looking for.

We brought friends that have never been to Fords, they are as impressed with the entire experience just as we have been. The waitress walked over and it was as if we have always know her. she was spot on with her recommendations. Big hit and one of my friends is a food critic.
Service was great. Menu is spectacular along with the daily specials. Noise level high and the temperature was a bit too cool so do bring a shawl or jacket, just in case. Good presentation and quality of all items. Will be back!
I love Fords Black & Blue, however this last experience was not so good. I ordered their whole belly clam special and they were very overcooked. Will not deter me from returning. Would just not get fried again. Staff was outstanding.
Service was excellent.

Great food and great service. Located in a marina which contributes to the seafood and summer vibe.

The waitress was impatient. Food was ok & seemed more expensive. Lobster bisque had no meat. Preferred their old location which had outdoor seating option.
