So happy to have found this place for a good lobster roll, but the whole menu is impressive. My friend and I wanted to try everything. We ended up having the lobster mac and cheese bites, lobster bisque and lobster rolls (CT style). Everything was fantastic, including the service. Sara was so attentive and really took care of us. The mocktails are also soo good! The interior is super cute, very New England vibes. Would highly recommend to any real seafood lover!

Jack’s Surf & Turf is a standout spot for seafood lovers: fresh, varied menu, welcoming atmosphere, reliable service, and solid delivery options. While prices sit in the mid-to-upper range, portions and quality justify them. Ideal for a date night, family dinner, or indulgent takeout.

So the place is small. There is seating downstairs and upstairs. The menu has a lot of MP prices so a little confusing. I saw this place on IG or TT and said we had to try it . Not impressed. Would rather go to a different seafood place. The lobster roll is all bread. The crab cake is not lump crab it's a mixture. The plates they serve the food on leaves the food cold quicker. They should put in a pot or with a lid.

I randomly stopped for lunch and was very pleasantly surprised! Excellent food, the iced tea was more like a nice cocktail. I will be back!

Went here this evening for a nice seafood meal with my family. Unfortunately, we left very disappointed. Firstly, the establishment was under construction and the noise was very loud at some points even with many people dining in. We did speak to someone who apologized about this which was very much appreciated and could have been ignored by us if the food was great, unfortunately it wasn’t even good. First we ordered the calamari and the lobster mac and cheese bites. The calamari was delicious and the lobster mac bites tasted nice but a little less seasoned than my family preferred. We also ordered the BLT lobster roll—the bacon was burnt to a crisp and the lobster tasted of mayonnaise and my sweet mother was less than satisfied :/. We also ordered the regular lobster roll, fish and chips, and grouper tacos. The regular lobster roll wasn’t seasoned, and the up-charged truffle fries tasted of old oil—every bite was caked in this oil. The fish and chips were unseasoned and oily as well, the fish had no flavor at all. The grouper tacos didn’t taste too bad but tasted more like a diner taco then an expensive $20 taco :(. The tortillas were burnt and the grouper was also burnt on the outside, the sweet potato fries were tasty but also burnt. Overall, for $170 it was a disappointing meal that we didn’t enjoy and would not recommend eating.

Second time around and I had to leave a review! The food is consistent! Quality, FLAVOR, portions, service, I can gush and continue, but my food is gonna get cold! This place is fantastic and will be my go to in the area! Great job! The blackened Grouper Sandwich is out of this world. And today the Surf and turf burger! Woo hoo! Raw oysters yum!

Best Lobster Rolls in Town - Perfect for My 30th Birthday!

Catered 3 large boxes of lobster rolls for my birthday party. Each roll was FILLED with luscious lobster chunks on a buttery toasted bun. I was surprised how good they were even though they weren't served right away. Definitely a highlight of the party celebration!

LOOK at how gorgeous these photos are 😋❤️
