The Steam Room

The Steam Room is an absolute must-visit for incredible seafood and unbeatable views! The star of the menu for me is their lobster roll—packed with sweet, tender lobster meat, lightly dressed so the flavor shines, and served on a perfectly toasted bun. It’s generous, fresh, and absolutely delicious. Pair it with their crisp fries or a cup of chowder and you’ve got the perfect seaside meal. What really makes this place special is the amazing view of the ferry right from your table. You can sit outside, enjoy the sea breeze, and watch the boats come and go—it’s relaxing and so uniquely coastal. The atmosphere is casual and welcoming, ideal for everything from a quick lunch to a leisurely dinner. The staff is friendly and efficient, keeping everything running smoothly even when it’s busy. I

A great stop after getting off the ferry or anytime you are in port Jeff. We enjoyed our lunch and it’s dog friendly! Large portions, fast service and friendly staff. Highly recommend!!!

We didn’t have much time before our ferry to CT and stepped into the Steam Room, which was a casual seafood spot conveniently located just across from the ferry port. When we asked if we could order food to go quickly, the staff was helpful and told us the lobster rolls would be quick, so we ordered 2 lobster rolls and a clam chowder to go. (plus a Diet Pepsi, which was full of ice) The clam chowder was nice and the lobster rolls were good, too, although they were a bit small and I prefer toasted buns. The lobster rolls come with butter and lemon. Without them, it doesn’t have much taste—especially the bun. The Steam Room was a good option for takeout food, but I think we would try other places for dining in next time.

Been going here since being an undergrad at SUNY Stony Brook. Usually order the Lobster dinner. Casual place, no frills dining. We had a lovely waitress who was very attentive. Decent prices and they have $10 special soup and half sandwich. We had the clam chowder that was delicious. My mom ordered the special with roast beef melt sandwich. I had ordered the broiled lobster tail dinner. Disappointed with the size of the tail but it was seasoned and prepared nicely. Portion sized worked out cause it allowed room for the chowder:) Located across from the ferry. Nice place to hang out and people watch as well as enjoying the water view.

The Steam Room is in such a beautiful location. So on a very pleasant sunny Memorial Day, we decided to stop in and give it a try. It had been years since I have eaten there, before they had servers. Our waiter Greg was cheerful & made us laugh. He was very personable & had menu knowledge. Our food was delivered rather quickly after we ordered.The Coconut shrimp had a good taste but came out a little mushy. The dipping sauce was tangy, which I enjoyed because I like to dip. The scallops were a bit on the small side, but they were pretty tasty. It was an overall lovely experience, I will definitely return, especially on a warm breezy day!
