Best fresh seafood place around Boston! Being eating here for many years, never disappointed at Dry Dock Cafe. I love their seafood platter, freshest swordfish (when I want to eat healthy), had the crab salad once (but only saw that once, it was so big and fresh). Very reasonable prices.
Don't eat here! I spent the night with food poisoning from the fried clams (at the stupid price of $38). Partially cooked chowder had to be microwaved even though it was "freshly made." A dive of a place with poor service.

Good breakfast. I was hoping for seafood but was too early in the day.

The fish is FRESH!!! Kinda a hidden gem. Very friendly staff but you’ve to ask for everything. While prices are great portions kinda match the low prices. It’s almost like a small counter in a building lobby but plenty of seats.
We just walked all the way here to find out that it was closed?? I wish they had updated hours in google.

This was a little gem we found while walking to our Hop on Hop off tour bus. Breakfast was delicious. The waitress was extremely friendly.

Freshest seafood around,,,,that's saying a lot, seeing we are on the coast. Broiled seafood sampler and fisherman's platter are the crown winners for me! Limited free parking in front.

Nice little spot that left me pleasantly surprised. The ham and cheese omelet I had was really good. The potatoes that came with them tasted a little odd, but overall the food was great.
I was in Boston for PAX East. I saw this little cafe was close to the the convention center so I wanted to check it out. I got the Fisherman's Platter which was fried clams, calamari, shrimp, and haddock. It was so good, I honestly didn't think I was going to finish it all lol. You can tell their seafood is fresh and really good quality. There isn't much of an atmosphere but with food this tasty that really doesn't matter.

Great service, the price is right, and the best cornbread muffins I've had at a restaurant. Cafe style, diner food... Which means it's everything I wanted!

I had heard about this place from a local and I had always wanted to try it. I finally made the time to go and it was awesome. They are only open for dinner one day a week which is on Friday nights until 8:00 p.m. I ordered the fisherman's platter because it offered a variety of seafood. It had shrimp, haddock fillet, calamari, scallops, fried clams with the bellies, french fries and coleslaw. The service was prompt and efficient and the food came out quickly. One of the major problems with ordering Seafood is that it is often too overly breaded and you taste more of the bread comes than you do of the seafood itself. That was not the case here. Everything was had a light bread coating that didn't interfere with the the subtle flavors of the various types of seafood. My server Sophia was prompt courteous and checked in on me regularly to make sure that I had everything I needed. I will definitely make time to go back.
