Order food and non-alcoholic drinks at the counter and have a seat. The server will be around to pick up your ticket.

Server brought our beverages quickly and the food arrived piping hot and fresh. We were told it may be a long wait (slightly busy) but it was like 5-10 minutes tops.

The Food: Warm lobster roll with melted butter, sweet potato fries and a side of slaw and a cup of the most delicious lobster bisque!! We shared and it was the perfect amount. Clean plate award!! We weren’t overly starving so sharing was perfect. About $55 for our meal. While that may be pricey to some, I mean… it’s fresh caught lobster. And we shared and it was the perfect amount for our hunger level.

Overall, it was great. The food was top notch. If you’re looking for fine dining, this isn’t it. But, the food was awesome. I love supporting family owned businesses. Definitely would recommend.

So came to OOB for our annual family vaca. Wanted some seafood and seeing as Sea Salt seems to be going down hill (as the reviews state) and tonight there was "about and hour" wait. We decided to try somewhere else that serves seafood.
We ended up hear after ready negative reviews about all the other places. We didn't have high hopes either. My wife and I got the number 11 which I belive was a fisherman's platter. Now the sign shows two plates with a lobster on each. So we figured even it's a small lobster we get our own. Nope. They take one small lobster.and cut it in half. The other issue was my wife asked if the clam strips where whole belly or just steips as we just wanted strips. The lady behind the window said they had both and we can choose. We did. We chose steips but ended up with whole belly. The amount of money ey we paid compared to the amount of food we got was a smack in the face honestly. $136 for less then a palm size of lobster, soggy fries and the wrong clams. Some got the meat lasagna and said it was great. Daughter got the bacon Mac and cheese. Said it was good. But we all left hungry. Just not enough food. Which I find strange because other reviews said the portions are huge. Idk. The food wasn't bad tasting or anything. The service was fine. Just so small and the price was so high. Places to go in OOB/Taco cross this one off and find a better place.

As a local of OOB, this is my absolute go to in the summer and fall. The best fried haddock around (I think it’s better than Ken’s place or clambake). It’s still family owed and operated and the staff is amazing. Do yourself a favor, skip the tourist traps and go where it’s real good

We don't mind spending money for a quality meal but $85 later and we walked out disgusted with the lack of food for what was paid. Server was annoying and just over the top in our faces. We've had fried clams back in Rhode Island and for the same price received a heaping mound of fried clams. Lucky to have gotten 6. Had steamers. Is there a legal limit on size that can be harvested? So tiny. Anyway if you're interested in getting a decent meal for your money, it's not here.

From the moment we were greeted at the door, we had exceptional service. The food was tasty & our server was attentive. We sat outside. Kathy, our server, was super friendly & knowledgeable about the area re things to do and see. Locally owned and operated restaurant.

Notice the owners don't reply to any of the reviews. They don't care, just like they don't care about food quality or their customers. Avoid this place. Sea salt down the street is way better
