DJ'S Clam Shack Stony Brook

We've been wanting to try this place and today we did. We had the fish and chips, Lobster bisque and lump crab sandwich. The lump crab sandwich was good and plentiful. Very much like a good Maryland style lump that you rarely see in NY. The fish and chips was excellent.. 3 healthy sized filets with a delicious bater fried crispy coating along with a bed of fries. They clearly keep their fryer well tended as the fried foods had no rough oil flavor at all. The lobster bisque was not a favorite as it was a tomato based rather than my favorite cream/sherry base bisque. This by no means is a knock as It had plenty of flavor just not my cup of bisque. We are definitely coming back to try the new England clam chowder. The staff is very friendly and accommodating!!

Very casual spot, but the lobster roll is the best I’ve had on Long Island! And much more affordable than the hamptons. DJ’s always manages to stuff so much lobster in and i always finish my meal super full. The hot lobster with butter is my favorite, and their fries are so crisp. Their Cajun sauce is delicious (you have to ask for it extra), and their other dishes are great too - the fish tacos and fried fish. Highly recommend!

Food was excellent. Paige, the server was so bubbly and terrific. Place was clean and cute. Coleslaw had the perfect amount of mayonnaise. Nothing was greasy and prices were very fair. Even down to the toasted buttered roll, you can tell that the food was prepared with care. We loved the meal.

Tonight, I ordered the lobster roll via Uber Eats, it tasted pretty good, but my stomach did not agree afterwards. Given that I spent $33 on my order, and another $14 on taxes and fees for Uber Eats, I was expecting for a fantastic dinner. As I opened the box, I was unfortunately disappointed by the small portions relative to the high price, and even more devastated by the way it made my stomach feel afterwards. I will say though, the food tasted good, and I enjoyed the 10 minutes of gobbling down the lobster roll. However, the hour that followed was incredibly painful, so much so that I could not finish the sweet potato fries (which I thought were alright, but not my type). So after a drained wallet and a stomach in shambles, I will say this was not my favorite take out experience.

As soon as I walked in, I was greeted by a smile and excellent customer service. I highly recommend their lobster roll and clam chowder, because they were so fresh and full of flavor. Thanks for the hospitality!
