The chowder was a weekly staple in our dinner rotation but they changed the recipe and it's awful now. Clams and lobster roll are still great but we probably won't be back. Hunting for a better chowder.

I called ahead for an order. It was misplaced and had to be filled while I waited. The person helping me at the counter couldn't have been nicer. Don't tell her boss but she snuck some extra cole slaw in my bag. I had asked for a little extra but she was very generous. So nice!

I had a yummy bay scallop roll with double coleslaw on the side. I had broken a tooth a few days earlier and had to be careful what I chose to eat. It was "just right"! It was Thursday nite and good music abounded.

I almost loved everything I got here except the over fried the shrimp couldn’t eat it at all. For everyone that likes sweet wine cupcake wine sweet not dry sweet. The 2 things that I loved was the soup it was my first time having this clam chowder soup and the lobster roll kinda wish it had like a sauce mix with lobster and it would have been mouth watering.

Seafood is terrible but the drinks and wings are awesome. I've visited twice and would say the same about the seafood

3 adults enjoyed happy hour bar prices while waiting for a fried shrimp dinner, fried fish dinner, and grilled salmon on a Caesar salad. All were excellent and very plentiful. The Caesar dressing and coleslaw sides soared homemade. Very reasonable and very good.

Laid back atmosphere, far from fancy, everything is served in plastic, Food & wine was good, place is tucked away in the back. Staff was friendly. Fresh seafood.

Delicious lobster grilled cheese and clam chowder! Big chunks of both lobster and clams. Very fresh tasting!

Really nice place, food was tasty and prices were good.

J's crawfish boil was extremely good. Everything tasted good and nothing was over cooked. The only negative thing I will say is there was a dead fish in one of their tanks.

Best Cajun Seafood boil ever. Best experience. Fast service. Really worth the money ?

Got the crab boil shoulda been called the shrimp boil. On tiny portion of snow crab legs, aye for 40$ at least hook a brother up with 2 clusters. Flavor was fine just wicked skimpy. Have had boils at other placesThis popped on my internet feed. Felt like I got tricked. My feed knows I love seafood. Won’t be back.

I often visit here and I must say I love their food. The service here though is not professional at all. I dined in the beginning of this week and I couldn’t find an employee for more napkins to save my life. I shouldn’t have to get up and walk to the kitchen to find someone. In any restaurant I’ve visited there are ALWAYS employees on the floor not hiding. Yesterday I picked up food and let me say waiting inside the restaurant for my food felt as if I were standing outside. I asked the young lady about the heat and she stated they’ve never had heat in the To Go area. I feel bad for the poor girls working with no heat. That should be against the law and I’m definitely going to look in to filing a complaint with the city. No one inside a restaurant should ever have to work under those circumstances.
