5/5

Coming from the northwest we know what good seafood is. The restaurant is just killing it! We visited this restaurant four times while in Boston for a week. Every item we had ordered is just beyond our expectations. The portion and the high quality of seafood you get for each main dish would have cost at least 25 more in Seattle. We like the clam chowder. It’s not full of cream like the popular Ivars restaurant in Seattle. The half pound lobster roll is simple, just warm butter and no mayo. It’s fresh and just the way we like it. Their signature crab cake combo is just ridiculously good. We have never had crab cake that is 80+ crab meat and it’s huge too. Unlike crab cakes in Seattle that ar...

This place is fantastic! The food is amazing. We decided to dine here because they offer gluten-free options, and we were not disappointed. Our server, Meagan, was very knowledgeable and recommended we start with their gluten-free bread. Normally we are skeptical of gluten-free bread at restaurants, but this was one of the best we've had. For our main dishes, we tried the Fish and Chips, Crab Rolls, and Lobster Rolls, all of which were delicious. The food was so good that I wanted to come back for dinner, but I was too full from lunch and had to drive back to New York. Meagan also suggested the bon-bons, which are chocolate-covered ice cream balls, and they were delicious as well. Definitely...

We had an amazing time at this restaurant. The food was incredible and a definite must-try in Boston for us now. The steamed lobster was incredibly fresh, sweet, and tender. It exceeded all of our expectations. The clam chowder served with bread was also delicious and the perfect combination. The staff was extremely friendly and accommodating. Despite leaving the restaurant late at 11pm, they were still patient and kind.

Friendly, efficient service. Nice decor. The gender neutral individual washrooms are nice. Lobster mac and cheese had a weird flavoured sauce but was a good portion and great presentation. Clam chowder and lobster bisque were nice. Fish and chips were tasteless and not crispy, but a good portion. Cider spiced mule was tasty. Secret garden g&t was basic. Overall really not worth the price as we did not enjoy our food. Book a table now

The food at this restaurant is fantastic, especially the clam chowder, and the service from Ricky was excellent. Boston is known to be a bit pricey, but that's the case with most restaurants there. We ended up returning for a second night to try different dishes, and Destiny was our amazing waitress. The octopus appetizer was delicious, as was the Rainbow Trout. Thanks again for a great dining experience.

Was an amazing meal! The 3 of us ordered Swordfish steak, blackened Haddock, and seared Scallops. They were all delicious. We also had the Lobster Bisque and Clam Chowder that were just as good. Then for dessert, the Boston Cream Pie, of course! Phenomenal. Our server Jon was impeccable. If you like great seafood, a beautiful restaurant, and spectacular service, head to Legal Sea Foods for dinner.

I had a fantastic dinner at the restaurant. I ordered the Garlic Butter Scallops with roasted potatoes and broccoli, while my guest had the Trout with broccoli au gratin and fries. The food was delicious and the service was friendly, despite the busy atmosphere. I also highly recommend trying the a la carte crab cake - it was a great addition to our meal.
