So I stop in for happy hour when I first move here … decent drink prices… decent appetizers. Bartender was great she was very attentive. Today we stop in and had the fish and chips (good tartar sauce) and the Black Sea Bass (the Special), both were outstanding. I was actually a little surprised. Our waitress was really good making the experience more inviting. Will definitely be back again…. For nothing else for the fish and chips.

Nice atmosphere and friendly hostesses. The waitress (Teresa) was helpful and quick to refill drinks. The clam chowder was creamy with a good balance of potatoes and clams. It had good flavor.

There are a lot of mixed reviews for the Lansdowne location but I had a great visit. The steamed shrimp appetizer was very good, nice and tender and perfectly spiced. I had not had their rolls yet so I went with that, especially after my server said they could prepare a Surf ‘n Turf lobster roll with filet mignon tips. It wasn’t on the menu so I’m glad he mentioned it. It was very good! Service was top notch, as usual.

Love Fords!!! Their food is fresh and tasty. Reminds me of the Great American Restaurants with their rolls, shrimp, smoked salmon dishes. We love the food and will always come back!

Had only a hot minute to pop in for small snacks to bring to Mi Contessa (as she enjoyed a moment with the dawg in the nearby park) before moving along in the beautiful day. Stopping in Ford’s Fish Shack? Proved to be a huuuge blessing!

I recently visited the Ford Fish Shack and overall, I was impressed with the food. The options were good and everything I ordered was fresh and delicious. However, the service was a bit lacking. Our waitress seemed to go missing for long periods of time, which was a bit frustrating. The ambiance of the restaurant was nice, and there was plenty of parking available. All in all, while the food was great, the service could use some improvement.

I’m not big on leaving reviews, so you know this is serious. It was a long day, I was exhausted and worn out from a hike and super hungry. I couldn’t decide if I wanted Mexican or seafood and I went back and forth so many times. Finally me and the rest of my family decided on Fords. We were so excited and hungry and we called in to make sure we put in the correct order not relying on the website. As we confirmed with the woman on the phone we knew we were in good hands… At least that’s what we thought. I sent to my husband to pick up the food, and my son and I eagerly waited for him to return. Once he brought back the food we were greatly disappointed. It was cold and soggy. An entire order was missing and my maine chips were missing their lobster. Wards cannot express how disappointed we were needless to say, no more Ford’s fish shack for us.

After a long hike with my wife, we were so hungry and looking forward to dinner. It took us an hour to decide where we wanted to order from. Keep in mind, we also had to order for our teenage boy. By the time we selected fords, we were excited and starving. I called in a carryout order and confirmed it with the woman the phone. We wanted to make sure what we had ordered was correctly put in the system. As she read it back, we thought we all set and good to go. I quickly picked up the food and brought it home to my hungry family. What we found, was beyond disappointing. We were missing an order of food, main ingredients from another dish were totally omitted. My wife had ordered the Maine Chips which should have come with lobster, but much to our disappointment, there was none. The rest of our food was cold and soggy. We wont be ordering from fords fish shack again.

My first time at Ford’s (Lansdowne) was delightful. Our table ordered the smoked salmon bruschetta appetizer, lobster bisque, fish and chips, and the Faroe Island salmon entree.
