Fantastic lobster roll 👍👍 Perhaps the star might be The Fish & Chips since it was sold out by late noon… The cheeseburger is also delicious and will give any franchise a run for their money. Order at cashier, take a seat at a table and the food will be brought to you. Polite service with a well organized kitchen dishing out meals steadily 💪💪

What does the "DJ's" in DJ's Clam Shack mean? I no...Done Just right! Yep this place has got the lobster roll down pat, it's Done Just right, imo. Warm is the way to go and our regular size was well packed with a nice mix of tender and sweet lobster chunks over a toasted buttery bun, just so good. One less star for the atmosphere because inside seating is limited and kinda like eating in a " shack". Oh yeah this is a clam shack. lol. Also why a service fee to use a credit card? But remember the most important thing is the lobster rolls are "Done Just" right! Enjoy!

The best part was the service and reception from the fellas. Other than that, mid at best. Table wasn’t clean when we sat down. The clam chowder was a bit too salty and the lobster roll was mushy. Not worth the trip from NYC. Will not be coming back.

★★★☆☆ 3.0 Quentin Hodges · Jan 2023

Finding decent conch or conch fritters in the NYC-area has been an exercise in futility, so when I saw a post on their social media account advertising conch fritters I figured I needed to see how they stack up. We arrived around 7 on a Saturday night and, to my surprise, we were the only customers. The parking lot was full and we had to circle the block before finding a spot, but there are a few pubs in the area. My companion was eager to try their hot buttered lobster roll and placed their order before I could finish looking at the menu board. I asked whether their calamari is served with rings and tentacles and was told that they only serve rings. Although it’s not scientific, that’s my method of determining whether they’re serving fresh or frozen calamari. Like I said, it’s not a sci

Grilled garlic shrimp scampi roll was so good, enjoyed every bite of it. French fries are so delicious as well. Thank you
