It was my first time ever trying both lobster and fried clams. I was so excited to try a lobster roll, and seeing that I could get a "Fat Lobster" and get the best of both worlds, plus onion rings and coleslaw, my mind was made up! I was prepared to wait, knowing how esteemed this place is and how busy it can get. I arrived around five or six in the early evening on a Tuesday and it was not busy at all, so I got my food pretty quickly after I ordered! I enjoyed it outside, although there is also indoor seating, but it was a gorgeous day out. The "Fat Lobster" is a lobster roll with coleslaw topped with fried clams and onion rings that comes with a bit more coleslaw on the side. This sandwich was mindblowing! The lobster was so FRESH, perfectly dressed, and the fried clams were tender insid

We had our first lobster and lobster roll in Massachusetts and it was delicious. It was a little dive kinda carry out, nothing fancy, but the food was good and counter service was just fine. We would definitely visit again when back up north.

Delicious fresh scallops!! Great service, great view. Sooo many scallops! I feel like there were over 30 fat, juicy, delicious scallops in here!!! This picture is taken after I ate about 5 already. I couldn’t wait! They were soooo good!!!

Excellent lobster rolls, fried clams, fried oysters, fish and chips- clam chowder is good too. We sat outside and watched the storm roll over the water. The view is stunning.

Good lobster rolls, but definitely pricey especially considering the lobster meat comes from bags and isn't freshly picked. Wouldn't go out of our way to come here again, but would consider it if in the neighborhood.
