Our server, Darrell Townsend was excellent! He was very knowledgeable and helpful with our choices and offered special birthday complimentary extras. We got a champagne toast and dessert. The meal was a bit expensive but we knew that this was a high end restaurant and you get what you pay for. A great birthday experience!“

“500 Ocean is a beautiful property with some amazing amenities. It is in a great location, surrounded by ocean views, restaurants and very accessible to the T, literally right below the building. My husband and I had a great experience living here and had rarely any issues. The main issue we had at move-in was addressed and we were even offered a small gift for the inconvenience. I love the maintenance staff and they are always so pleasant and helpful. One of my favorite parts of living here was having an in-house fitness coach/ personal trainer- Cienna Jade! She is so amazing to work with and has really helped me along my fitness journey. It was so convenient having her come to the 500 Ocean gym, which is one of the best gyms I've seen in an apartment home. She conducts 1 on 1 sessions and will literally work with you on scheduling a time that's convenient for you as well as offering group or couple sessions! Overall, very pleasant experience!“

“Innovative and delicious.“

“EXCELLENT service and fresh food!“

“I was in town this past week for a business conference. Another attendee asked the bartender at our hotel where the best seafood was; and she recommended Belle Isle, stating, "Best Lobster Rolls in the city." So we hopped in an Uber and made our way to Belle Isle. Upon arrival we saw that the restaurant was situated right on the water, with an accessible doc, which hosted, what appeared to be, a functional fishing boat and lobster traps.

The hostess encouraged us to sit where ever we would like. After a quick huddle we sat down at the bar and were immediately greeted by Melissa; who was cheerful, and poured a perfectly cold draft beer. She recommended the Lobster Pie as it was her favorite, but our stomachs were set on the Lobster Rolls as per our hotel bartenders glowing review.

We were not disappointed! The lobster roll was almost too much to handle. The bread that hosted the succulent chunks of claw and tail meat was buttered and toasted to perfection; but hardly the texas bookshelf you'd expect it to be upon seeing how much lobster was piled on top.

We met two locals, Henry and Paula, who also recommended the Lobster Pie, as well as the Clam Chowder. And both of us having never had New England Clam Chowder out of anything other than a soup can, jumped at the opportunity to taste the real thing. Another delicious dish! Best Clam Chowder I've ever had, hands down.

I came back for a second visit, risking missing my flight home to try the Lobster Pie. It was worth every little bit of stress I gained watching my Uber take 5 minutes longer to pick me up than the app predicted. (I made my flight)

If you're looking for a family friendly, yet fun and welcoming environment with seafood that will blow your mind. This is the place to go!“

“When I popped into Mike's for a quick roast beef, I wasn't expecting anything special. I eat a lot of roast beefs and have high standards. I have to say, Mike's impressed me. The beef was massive, perfectly cooked, and the sauce was somehow better than it normally is. I highly recommend everyone who likes roast beef give Mike's a shot.“

I worked there back in the 80’s, and this is the next best thing to fresh off the boat, these guys know all the local fishermen and we supplied and sold more seafood than anywhere because it’s always fresh. Miss these guys, good people! Paul and Larry“

The food was superb!!! The room was clean and big! I am so glad that I booked this hotel again for my return from our cruise. Would definitely stay here anytime I come back to Boston!!!“

“I have been going to Grassfields for many years and have been very pleased. The past few times I have been there I ordered the broiled scallops and have been disappointed. The muscle on the scallops are not removed which are very tough to eat. Also I feel they are gritty. I am hoping that someone reads this and corrects the issue because Grassfields is a lovely place.“

“Authentic northern Chinese cuisine! 😄“

“Hands down THE MOST creative omakase I've ever been to. The chef literally takes imported fresh, authentic fish from Japan and pushes the boundaries with them in unthinkable yet genius ways.

Every piece he delivers is a masterpiece. He brilliantly hits different ratios of sweet/savory and intentionally incorporates variety in texture in literally everything he serves up. This man can COOK.

I would like to add that I have never been a fan of uni, but the chef changed my mind on that real quick. That's crazy. It was actually one of my favorite pieces from the whole set.

I would also like to add that one of the courses was a plate of multiple slices of perfectly cooked, geniusly assembled wagyu. That blew my mind. It was the best form of wagyu I've ever had, and I was so glad we got a small plate of it instead of one slice. Each piece assimilated into my tongue and gave me a sample of heaven. Praise the Lord for that.

The meal tastefully ended with two dessert courses. Bravo. I love dessert. Both of them went NUTS. Both were the best desserts I've ever had at any omakase, but I personally loved the second to last the most. Think of like a rice crispy, but give it an Asian twist, then level it up and evolve it all the way like your favorite Pokémon. Seriously, I wish I had an elf in my brain taking notes on each dish for me because they were so unique that I couldn't even comprehend how to describe the flavors more concretely right now.

The establishment was clean, simple, yet very homey —like if you had an uncle who turned his kitchen into an omakase joint. The chef was so very kind and sweet. He was great at making conversation and making you feel seen on a more personal level, which is way more than I can say for most places. Mind you, although it was a 6 seater, he was still a one man team —and he executed everything perfectly in a timely manner amidst the friendly convo. Just impressive. A gem among gems and a MUST try. Please, somebody just give this man some Michelin stars already.“

“Sitting in the parking lot enjoying my lunch. First time here, I came for the roast beef, and the other reviews are not off-base, very good! French fries were delicious also, actually crispy and tasted like potatoes. Friendly staff, quick service, reasonable pricing, what more could you ask for?“

“10/10 would recommend. We ordered the Penang curry, chicken teriyaki rice bowl, beef satay, steamed gyoza and samosa. The peanut sauce with the beef was 🔥🔥. All incredible.“

“Haven't been to a Legal Seafood since I lived in RI and that was over 10 years ago. My wife wanted to try it and I was ify on going but I would give it a try since I knew they were ok back then, they weren't the greatest thing around.
We got sat right away, we went for a early dinner since my daughter is very young. Our sever was great and food was very good. I got the scallops and street corn, it was very good and my wife got the stuffed lobster she really enjoyed it as well.“

“Great food! Amazing lunch specials! Too much food I had to take home leftovers“

“Todo muy bueno y la atención de primera“

“Excellent dining experience for atmosphere, taste and waitstaff. Clean, beautiful table settings and layout. Food quality was superb. Menu was just right in terms of limited offerings but covered the bases. Oysters served exceptionally well - on the halfshell with 4 accoutrements on a bed of ice with small fork and spoon; lemon in mesh bag. That's the way you do it. Upscale dining for sure and not breaking the bank for comparable places -but not better- like Capitol Grill or Eddie V's . Cocktails looked to be super but I'm a straight up martini guy; there, glass could have been colder. Otherwise, this is the place. Final positive note -not a kid in sight or earshot.“

“Wow. Wow. What a discovery! I ordered delivery and expected something “okay”. I am left speechless. This was arguably the best meal I’ve had in a long time. Quality, quantity, taste - phenomenal...I had the Mediterranean mix which was a great sample of all different tastes. The rice (usually just fill in deliveries) was excellent with that slight bit of saffron coating it. Thank you!“

“Our party of 14 had the wonderful opportunity for the private room Sunday June 5th. The 50th anniversary party was treated royally by Ron and Sharon. Their service and knowledge of the entrees was spot on. The kitchen staff didn't disappoint! Everything about our visit just needed to be acknowledged! Thank you.“

“Great place, great staff and amazing food. Their pizza is as good as it gets.. But it’s tough to decide with so many great offerings.“

“Great Food. Great Service. Good Job.“

“Recientemente trabaje en Lynn y me recomendaron el restaurante. Generalmente ordeno y la comida esta lista en 20-25 minutos dependiendo el dia y la hora. La comida muy buena y las personas que trabajan son muy amables.“

“Amazing delicious meal. Quiet March Sunday but the staff was on point and attentive. We ordered the special beef Pho and stir fry noodles. Excellent meal. Our egg rolls to start were delicious and piping hot . 10 out of 10.“

“This place is both so comfortable and so classy at the same time! Service is wonderful, the staff members are so very friendly, and the food is delicious! Ava and Kathy made the evening so enjoyable! This is definitely a place for us to visit again!“

“We had our daughter’s birthday there this weekend in the dining room. The staff were very accommodating and attentive. Miguel was outstanding! He got a few other servers to sing and made our daughters night. Thank you for all your hard work!“
