Customer Reviews
We had a fantastic time at Cap’n Cat Clam Bar! It was the night after a snow storm, we wanted seafood so we headed to the clam bar! We sat by the fire place, it was cozy! The waiter was friendly and attentive! He was great on the napkins & drink refills! The Piano player was fantastic and took our requests, and sang along with us! We were the only people in the dining area, which is unheard of! They are always packed! There were a few people at the adjoining bar area. We enjoyed the attention & our delicious meal! We took home dessert, which was delicious. We can’t wait to return!
Their seafood takeout is a rip off!!! They appear to up-charge people of color. This was my experience today. I ordered King Crab Legs that cost $149. I was excited and hungry only to get a small takeout box with 3 legs in it. Of course I went inside & asked what’s this & the man behind the counter (on the liquor side of store) tried to tell me that’s how it comes & the price was market value…. Smh! Of course I left peacefully but disappointed. As a person of color people already look @ you like you’re not gonna order much, then if you complain they make it seem like you are trying to steal or something. So before any of that happened I just respectfully left. I will NEVER order from here anymore! Food was 👍 but portions are trash👎& customer service was not great either 👎look @ the photos.
Well, we came back and everything was even better! Got the snow crab clusters this time! Food was phenomenal! We miraculously got a table right away because it was packed on a Saturday night! Our server, who is adorable, was running around the entire time we were there but never lost her smile or friendliness! As it was busy,it took some time for the food to arrive but it was so worth it! We had jalapeño poppers for an appetizer, but the best was the black mussels, steamed little neck clams, and Dungeness crab! Can't wait to come back!
Food is always good, but we wish that all the food was brought out together. It's been this way for decades. This most recent visit I was about to cancel the final item because we finished everything else. The waitress said she had held it back because the previous customers at that table wanted things brought out one at a time. We weren't the previous customers and if that was an option it should have been presented to us so that we could make that decision. Update: Our last visit was a little better, but the wait staff could be a little more attentive.
This place looks like a dive bar from the outside. It is also connected to the liquor store from the inside. The place seems dingy. Could use a good refreshing up. Food was tasty. We got a decent selection of foods. Small menu, not an issue with us rather have small quantity then a lot of poor choices. So my issues with the place- it’s too expensive for what you get. They aren’t accurate for the prices on the menu- chowder was listed For 11$ for a pint. We got charged 12$ for it. Waitress stated that was the price for Togo. So Togo is cheaper in here? It was not clear on the menu which you can see in my pic. Plus isn’t it illegal to charge more then you advised? Service was slow with not many tables, maybe 5 tables total. The biggest issue is that no where on the menu does it say that old
