Disgusting, poop was still visible in shrimp. The service wasn't the best, it was my birthday and we told the worker and she had a unfriendly attitude towards us. Food wasn't fully warm and they let a random man in who came up to my family and started to be a disturbance. They just sat there and did nothing about it, we had to leave the place due to lack of service and safety. Not the best at all.

Long waits , management should hire more employees for busy days , not worth it when you are hungry . The hostess is very rude

Food was so so. I ordered spicy which the waitress warned it may be too spicy for me. Never been to this place so agreed to spicy which turns out it was not spicy at all. Will not return.

This place is no Capt. Loui but it's definitely a good back up option. The serving sizes are decent and the prices are what you'd expect for fresh seafood.Would definitely go back but will not be getting my shrimp basket there. The shrimp was butterflied which I'd prefer it whole with just the tail. When butterflied I feel like it absorbs too much oil and you can't really taste the shrimp. The tartar sauce I'm sorry was not good at all. It was like eating straight up mayo so I only had a couple bites. The bag of seafood was decent, even my kids liked it.The person who rang us up was helpful and explained how to order since it's different from what we are used to. Forgot to take pics, maybe next time!

Waited 20 minutes for the server to even acknowledge us. Then she tells us we will be waiting for more than 30 minutes. We said okay, and she repeated it as if telling us to just leave. I asked why it would take so long when everyone in the restaurant had their food but one table. Just proceeded to say she was working by herself. First time visiting the area and was hoping to try this place out. Won’t recommend to any friends for the future.

Initially I was a bit skeptical, since we were the only people in the whole restaurant (on a Monday evening, so could be a reason as well). But the food was absolutely delicious. I had the snow crab with Holly sauce and mild spice. Usually I like it spice, but the waitress recommended mild and it was definitely spicy enough.A bit on the pricy side, but the visit is also an experience with the apron, gloves and tools.A small thing to note is that they do not serve alkohol, but it might be just as well. The food is enough!

This place has amazing food. Service kind of slow but can't ask for more when there is only one wait staff on hand. Come ready to make a mess of yourself. They give you gloves for the boil I have small hands was easier to use my hands then wear the gloves. If we come back to Massachusetts will have to do this again.

The food is still good, but the service takes a long time because now they have only one waitress who attends to the delivery of online orders as well as face-to-face customers. The conditions of the restaurant, internally, look somewhat neglected. In April 2022 I went on a Sunday for my birthday, and the restaurant was full of customers. I returned on a Sunday in April 2023, and there were only 5 tables occupied in the almost two hours we were there.
