This restaurant has stunning decor inside. Reminds me of a mix of aquarium decor meeting contemporary restaurant. It’s clean, fresh, and nice. Our server was so nice and did everything he could to make us feel welcomed and great. He consistently refreshed our ginger ales time and time again without us asking which we appreciated so much. He recommended a tuna tartare which was so yummy! It’s always great to try new things. If you’re a sushi or seafood fanatic, this is the place for you. The salmon burger was ok but the rice pilaf was excellent . The oysters are some of the best I’ve ever had, delicious and served on a bed of ice with delicious toppings. The shrimp cocktail is perfection! The place is just a little too expensive however, I do recommend trying this spot if ever in the area.

Liked the clean contemporary decor – service was excellent – food was hot & fresh – my only gripe is – I made reservations 3 weeks before Valentines day – got there & they tried sitting us at a tiny table near the service area – got lucky a booth was just coming open – made our experience there a whole lot better – we started withouster om a half sh &stuffies- delicious- main course – My date had baked scrod with rice pilaf & broccoli- was delicious & filling- I had the baked stuffed shrimp rice pilaf & broccoli, shrimp was excellent, jumbo & sweet & tender – Definitely the place to go for good seafood

I came here this afternoon for dinner. This was my first time here. The restaurant is beautiful, lots of natural light. I had the clam chowder and fish and chips. It was the best of fish and chips, I ever had a chain restaurant. The batter was light and the fish was fresh and delicate. My waitress was delightful. I will be back for sure. Thank you

Food was very good. Calamari and lobster roll were excellent. A bit on the pricey side but had a nice meal here.

Went around 2 on a Sunday, a few people and not that busy. Our server was nice however, we weren’t fond that she kept coming to our table constantly during our visit, even while we were eating. The food was good. I ordered the Salmon BLT. I also tried the lobster ravioli that wasn’t on the lunch menu but they said it was no problem to order it for lunch instead of dinner. Overall was it was nice, good food and good customer service.

First time visit. I had mixed expectations from a chain restaurant. However I was thoroughly impressed. Service was attentive and personable. Ambiance was open air and inviting. Drinks were excellent. Food was outstanding. Can’t wait for my second visit.

I was surprised at this Legal Sea Foods. The service, the food, the atmosphere and the environment were all top notch (except a little bit too salty for the scampi linguine pasta). But overall experience was satisfactory.

I really wanted to like this place, it is a really contemporary restaurant aesthetically, and the service was excellent…that’s where it stops. The food for the price was overcooked. We ordered stuffies and calamari (all tentacles mind you) if you like the tentacles that is good for you, and if they weren’t hammered maybe it would have been a little better. I received fried clam jerky that’s how cooked they were and my husband got a lobster roll with a lot of the rubbery pincer claw meat, again if that’s what you like you do you, not judging. It defintely boils down to the price, way over priced for a subpar meal imo.

I grew up in New England, and I know the difference between fresh seafood and previously frozen. It took me until now to try legal seafood. It’s a great atmosphere and they have a great bar, and all the people were really nice. If you were looking for seafood there are a host of local shops that offer fresh scallops fresh fish. I mean the fries were good and the tartar sauce was excellent, but being from New England I just can’t say it’s great food.
