The food was delicious and very fresh. Having a robot deliver your food was fun! Definitely recommend.

I'm not a sea food guy, but the food was decent. Friendly service. Presentation and portions could be better.

I walked into an empty restaurant on a Saturday night around 7:30pm. Immediately I googled reviews. I don't normally go by everyone's reviews, so I gave it a try.... it was fantastic!! Food was hot, fresh and flavorful! Absolutely loved the Shaking Crab sauce, would def recommend. Also, being empty made it a relaxing and enjoyable environment, plus didn't have to wait long for our food at all!! Going back real soon

I come here every time I crave a good seafood boil. They have a robot that brings your food out which is pretty cool. The waiter could be a bit more attentive but overall I'd go back and would tell others to do the same.

Service and atmosphere was great, they even had a robot deliver our food. Everything was an EXTREMELY reasonable piece compared to all of the nearby seafood restaurants. My one and only complaint, too much black pepper in their seasoning. If you’re looking for seafood and drinks, definitely try this spot!!!

This place has been on my places to try list. Took some time for me to try it which means my expectations were not that high. Well glad I came around and tried it because the drinks, food and atmosphere was great. Definitely will come back and forget about hook and reel.

This place was completely empty when my co-worker and I came in @ 5:30pm, and only 4 other people came in before we left at 7pm. The food came out on this robot-server, which was cool! I wasn't impressed by the taste of the food-I like Hook & Reel better. And, $4 for a can of Canada Dry Ginger Ale is ridiculous!

Very disappointing experience. Literally came in for the lobster fries and was told there weren’t any left until the tail end of my visit. There was only two other parties in the restaurant while I was there. They knew they didn’t have any lobster fries when we first arrived. They could’ve been honest from the start and I wouldn’t have had to waste my time or money. The boil tastes like nothing but butter it was truly a terrible experience.

I had the lobster roll it was the worst ,instead of chunks of lobster it was like tuna fish spread with Cajun spice so salty you could not taste anything else. My other dish was l twin lobster tails in a bag with a small potato and small piece of corn not great for the money and no atmosphere at all unless you like robots bringing you food. Never again.vthis place is a one man operation.Parking: The lot was crowded and not many people were in the place.
