Service was excellent, food was okay. I ordered fried clams, which came with about 10 clams and probably 6 of them were huge and only half fried, so that was pretty disappointing. Chowder was pretty good. The restaurant itself is nice inside, but a little cramped.

This has fast become our go too! The food is quality, fresh, cooked/seasoned perfectly, portions are generous, price point is perfect. The cocktail’s are great value for money. Lobster Buoy my fave! 🦞🛟 Freshest haddock I’ve ever had in town. We will be back for more 😋

Every one should experience their own “Cheers!” welcome when they walk through the door of their fav local restaurant, ‘eh? We actually do, so I thought I’d rave alongside the myriad others who feel the same way about ‘The Saltwater Grill’ in Gloucester, MA.
From the warm welcome, to the casual ambience, to the exceptional food; we honestly can’t say enough.
The owner ‘Jack’ in particular goes the extra mile to make you feel he’s been waiting for you to come in + to come back!

MIDWEST, LISTEN UP!!! I'm from Ohio and I've never had scallops of this quality! Delicious is a gross understatement! To say that this food is anything less than 5/5 is an insult to the quality of this seafood! Within these unassuming walls lies the most delectable scallops I've ever had! My complements to the entire staff! Our waitress was so kind despite our very complicated orders! And the cooks here deserve an award! 5/5! Would recommend!
Note: The New England Clam Chowder is also anazing!
Baked Scallops are the way to go here!

I recently dined at Saltwater Grill and had an incredible experience! From the moment I walked in, I was warmly greeted by the owner, which made the experience feel so personal and welcoming. The staff were incredibly friendly and attentive throughout the meal, always ensuring we had everything we needed without being intrusive. The seafood was fresh and the prices were surprisingly reasonable for the quality and portion sizes. It’s not often you find such a perfect balance of great food, friendly service, and fair prices. I’ll definitely be returning!

Local, good quality food and professional service. Indoor and outdoor seating and nice view of estuary across the parking lot. It's located just off the roundabout, so you can only enter/exit one way. Lots of parking though!

Food was good. A nice serving of fries with each platter. Felt the main entree portions could be better. Especially for the price you're paying. The lobster roll could have had more lobster for what you're paying. Do not believe it was one lobster worth of meat. The fried calamari appetizer had other fried items in with it. The New England clam chowder soup with very good. The Smashburger was cooked to order and very good. The fish and chips was very tasty and fresh.
