We love the food and the service is exceptional too. The only thing I would love to see is the landscaping improved a little. The back room is also very nice and comfortable

Met my sister for dinner. We ordered grilled shrimp skewers for an appetizer which were tasty. Unfortunately the meal went down hill from there. The lobster roll was cold, overcooked, skimpy, and no melted butter in sight. We also ordered scallop tacos which had very few scallops and no flavor. I guess the best part was the prices are reasonable, and the server was cheerful. The decor needs a serious upgrade from the 80's.

I really wanted to love this place. I had been there years ago, first as the Port of Entry and then as Byblos and after seeing so many glowing reviews I definitely wanted to return to a new experience at Two Forks Up. First off, walking in the door it was obvious that nothing had been updated since I was there probably 20 years ago or more. The ancient wallpaper peeling off the walls wasn’t really a nostalgic charming look. The whole entryway could use some work.
I chose this restaurant for my birthday because of the seafood. I ordered the lobster roll and my husband had the fish fry which he enjoyed. The sidewinder fries were unique and delicious. My lobster roll which the menu describes as “ tossed with butter” was disappointing. The lobster was a bit chewy and halfway through it I was wanting some melted butter to dip it in. I was surprised that it was not served with a small cup of melted butter and did get some on request. I ordered key lime pie for dessert and again was slightly disappointed. My first bite gave me the impression that it had been refrigerated uncovered as the top was slightly dried out, just not what I expected.
All in all it was OK but I wouldn’t make the trip back again. The lobster roll I had at Old Man River this summer was actually better.

Fantastic place! We had a group of 11, and reserved a table ahead of time. The staff were friendly right from the start. Our server was great! She was knowledgeable about the menu, very attentive and I love that she cleared plates as they were emptied. The food tasted amazing. Amongst our group, the surf and turf was the major hit. Steak seasoned beautifully, crab and lobster sweet and cooked perfect. Honorable mentions to the lobster lasagna and fried banana pepper rings. Everyone agreed we will definitely be back. Hopefully next time we will save room for the desserts that looked delicious.

Expected better. Coconut shrimp appetizer was cheap shrimp from a freezer. Fisherman platter was also the same. The crabcake was a flat tasteless hockey puck with mush inside, the fish was equivalent to gortons frozen fish, with 4 little popcorn sized shrimp and some unflavored calamari . It was just awful. I have had better seafood from the grocery store freezer.

Lobster rolls were so very skimpy this visit. I was so looking forward to a great lobster roll. Less than half the lobster I received in the past. Truly mostly roll. So very loud in the restaurant, it was ridiculous. Plus no place to park on a Saturday night, not one parking spot left.

Went there with friends for the fish fry and it was excellent. Not over battered like some places. Everything was fresh and cooked just right. I want to go back and try several other dishes. The prices are reasonable for what you get.
Unfortunately there wasn't room for dessert but I took one home and a lobster roll for my wife and she loved it. We'll be back.

I was so excited to try this place, especially since they seemed allergy-aware. I made a reservation and specifically noted that I have Celiac disease. When we arrived, I even noticed a sign at the host stand asking patrons to disclose allergies—promising, right? So, I reminded our server, who was kind but unfortunately unfamiliar with Celiac and gluten. No worries; I’m used to explaining that gluten is found in anything with wheat or certain grains, and she was patient and receptive.
For dinner, I kept my order straightforward: steamed clams, steak, lobster, and crab—simple items that should be naturally gluten-free. My husband ordered shrimp cocktail and scallops with rice, and he enjoyed everything but mentioned that one scallop was a bit gritty. My meal started well; the clams and steak were solid, and the lobster was good too. But I saved my favorite—the crab legs—for last. When I cracked one open, though, I found a piece of pasta tangled in the other legs.
Curious (and a bit worried), I asked if they cook the crab in the same water as the pasta. Our server kindly took it back and assured me they didn’t. However, when she brought fresh crab legs, they had pasta in them again. Turns out, pasta may have accidentally gotten in the water used for boiling the crab. Not exactly the best news, especially since I’d already eaten some.
Unfortunately, I didn’t make it home before feeling the effects. I really wanted to love this place—it has great service, affordable lobster, and a warm atmosphere. But, to any fellow Celiacs or gluten-intolerant folks: be cautious.
For those lucky enough not to worry about gluten, the food was decent, and the server was incredibly friendly and accommodating. A little feedback to the restaurant: if you’re going to display an allergy notice, please make sure the staff is educated on cross-contamination and food safety. This spot has potential, and I hope they’ll take a small step to make it safer for everyone.

We waited 20 minutes before I flagged a server. We ordered drinks and waited another 10 minutes. Twenty minutes later a server took our order. The appetizer came out without silverware. We waited again to flag someone down. The entrees came out and my wine glass was empty for over an hour. The server never checked on us and my dinner was cold before I could get warm butter. We asked for a manager and was told there wasn’t one there as they were short staffed. The service was terrible, I will never do business with this establishment again. No comment Linda?

Sat 25 minutes and had to ask a wait person if we had waiter/ waitress, that waitress brought us drinks and then we waited another 20 minutes for our waiter to come. He took our order. Another waitress brought our appetizer and we couldn’t eat it because we had no silverware. 10 minutes later we got another waitress to bring us silverware and the appetizer was cool. Our food came and we mentioned my husband’s wine glass was empty. No one came with another, the whole night! No one came to ask how the food was and my husband’s lobster and crab were just warm and he wanted more butter, which we never got. We asked for a manager and waited another 15 minutes and when the waiter came back, he said there wasn’t one working. It was Saturday evening. We were there 1 hour and 45 minutes total. They took his meal off the bill. This was an Anniversary Dinner!

I haven't been there yet. But we were talking about going after seeing a tiktok about your buisness. But after seeing your response to the outlandish review made on here. We will 100% be visiting! That was a perfect response!
We actually started our night out at a different restaurant for dinner but we left there because the service was so bad. We live down the road from 2 Forks Up so we just decided to go there. The night out was redeemed. I went in disappointed by how bad customer service had become and left with hope that it might still exist. Everyone was amazing. The hostess sat us right away. Our server, Alex, was amazing. The food was great but it’s not what made our dinner so good. The service here was top notch. The employees are polite, kind, well trained and understand customer service. Well done 2 Forks Up! Thank you for helping to make our night out still fun even if the first place we tried was so bad.

Owner claims that I should have known that scissors were to be used for crab legs. Well, when I ordered my dinner, I told the waitress that I had never ordered a whole lobster before. No one ever said how to eat it. It was not hot so I wanted to eat it while it was warm. I never have used scissors on crab legs because the are usually hard.
