Atmosphere was cozy but dark. I had to use my flashlight on my phone to see the menu. Waitress Patti was fabulous. I felt my portion of fish was on the small side, more like fish bite. But everything was tasty.

The food is always top tier, the servers and bartenders are fantastic, they're great with food allergies, and their happy hour menu is outrageously good. This is one of my all time favorite restaurants.

Met bartender Devin and server Patty as well as owner Robert. I had the stuffed shrimp. I was super impressed by the aesthetics and atmosphere of Elmo’s, and the meal I had was delicious. I had never eaten the zucchini and onions with red sauce side dish and it was pretty damn good.

I got lobster bisque all is could taste was scallions. I don't mind lite onion but it took away from the delicious flavor of the bisque.

To die for lobsters! We are new to the area and My husband is from Maine and said this is the best seafood that reminds him of home!

We will be returning soon.

We waited a long time for our food. I had stuff shrimp, something had a funky taste- like old oil. Shrimp over cooked. Waitresses were great..good service from them.

We really had a great meal at Elmo's. It was a mid-week visit and was reasonably busy for mid-week. We were greeted by the owner ( we think) who gave a quick but in-depth explanation of the three specials for the evening. We were then immediately handed off to a server for seating and water. Our waitress promptly greeted us and got us going with bread & whipped butter, and drinks. We have the calamari with peppers yum (personality I would have preferred that the peppers were also to be fried). Chowder was outstanding. Salad was nice too. Main meals were served in a reasonable time and prepared perfectly. I went with the seafood crepe which had a generous portion of lobster meat. My wife got the stuffed soul. Plenty of leftovers which we devoured the next evening.

Elmo's dockside is one of the best seafood restaurants I have ever been to. Food is phenomenal and so is the wait staff. Can't recommend this place enough! If you've never been, what are you waiting for?

Food was terrible. Fish was bland and over cooked. We were served dead mussels. The fish and chips were some of the worst I’ve ever had. Not crunchy at all, doughy and hard to chew. Food was overpriced too. Will not be coming back again.

Food was disappointing. Have gone in the past but decided to give it another try. Neither meal was anything exceptional for the price. The lobster bisque did get a rave review from my wife.

Pasta is Not homemade, mussels are prepared separate, marinara sauce was oily and without any flavor. No fresh garlic used for roasted garlic sauce.
Steak was good
