Always have a great meal at a great price. Only once have we had an issue but it was taken care of right away and without a problem. Very customer friendly and delicious.

Our visit was plain terrible on 10/22/2025. We entered around 5:45PM Saturday night, parking lot was full as was the restaurant. Seated with friends, note my entry time, finally got out meals at 7:30, no exaggerating. Watched other guest come, seated in booths, and get served while we waited. There was only one server for the whole restaurant, in unbelievable for a Saturday night. I won't speak for my wife's entree, but she had stomach issues yesterday. My appetizer of clam chowder must of come right out of the can, soupy milk with small pieces of potatoes and I think clams because it sure did not taste good. My entree of maple beacon scallops was small hockey pucks. Several scallops were the size of a dime, the remaing pieces were smaller than a quarter, all 10 pieces were well done, hockey pucks, hard to chew, over cooked. There was no beacon flavor period. The vegetables must of come right out of a grocery store frozen veggies, bland, over cooked, lacked any color, took two bites and left the rest for the dumpster. The only good part of my entree was the baked potato, it tasted the best. Now I am a retired military individual, I've had the good and the not so good, but this meal was beyond not good, and for $24.00 I was for sure not a happy camper. I don't fault the only server working and she did get a 20% cratutity, but I do fault the management. This was a bad experience and would not go back even for a 2nd try. Let the buyer beware, one further comment, I observed one couple near our table walk out after waiting the guy said over an out for his beverage he said loudly. I also heard a nearby table complain loudly that it was 7 o'clock and they got there around 5, where was there food.
Food was good, side dishes need more spices and flavor. Baked haddock was excellent!

Outstanding American food at very reasonable prices. Food and service were excellent. We got there early to beat the rush, and it was quite crowded before we left. Out of the way but well worth the trip
Everything was great on our first visit to Ladd's. Ali took amazing care of us and we will definitely be back! Special shootout to the homemade apple crisp. Mmmmm....

The food at Ladds is always good, but whenever we get takeout and we’re told a certain time to pick it up, it’s always 30-45 minutes later than that time. Unfortunately this makes us not want to eat from here and would rather give other restaurants our business.

far above any other dining establishments in the area! don't let how affordable the menu is deter you. Ladds is a classic New England Restaurant with all the bases covered. Try their amazing lobster bisque!

My husband and i showed up for dinner at the height of the evening. The GM said, for a table would be a significant wait time. In his nextbreath he said he could put a table together for us, if that was okay. Extreme customer serv ice!! Second of many visits, to come. Food was so good 1st time, now this!! The GM actually waited our table, as well, being an extra table.

Ladd’s Restaurant is so much more than just a place to grab a bite to eat it’s a place where memories are made, where the food tastes like home, and where every seat holds a story.
You can feel the love and history the moment you walk through the doors. This isn’t just a restaurant... it’s a space built by family, fueled by friendship, and grounded in tradition. The cook behind the scenes isn’t just preparing meals; he’s continuing the legacy of a family owned business.
And the staff? You can tell they treat each other like family and they treat every guest the same way.
The food? Absolutely delicious...but beyond that, every bite feels like it has a story behind it. You can sit down for dinner with your mom, share dessert with friends, or grab a drink at the bar with your crew, and no matter what, you leave with more than just a full stomach, you leave with memories.
Ladd’s was built on hard work, love, great food, and an atmosphere you can’t replicate anywhere else. There’s simply no other American cuisine restaurant that makes you feel the way you do when you’re here.
It’s one of those rare places where you’ll never forget the experience from the first bite to the last laugh as you walk out the door.
Highly recommend once you go, you’ll understand exactly what I mean and why so many regulars like my self will always come back to Ladds.
