Worst

Very Low Quality. Rude service Pros: N/A Cons: Dont Risk It


Dirty, Unprofessional, Poor Quality Food & Service. Not Recomened 9/24/2008

I gave this place 4 tries thought the years, in hopes of improvment with NO LUCK. This place has cobwebs and looks like it never gets cleaned. The servers are rude and sloppy each time. The food has always been a disapointment. The fish has been sightly raw, with the taste of dirty fry oil. I also had a Pasta Special, big mistake. Overcooked pasta. The sauce was no more than melted butter and milk. I should have know better about ordering somthing other than fish, at a seafood place. The clam chowder has been good, but I think it's from a can. I also tried a steak, with not much luck. The cooks dont seem to understand Med Rare. The meat tased old and my baked potato was ice cold. The salad was brown and slimmy. This place reminds me of a slop house! Better off buying fresh food at the market and taking it home. Pros: Good Chowder (from a can) Cons: Unprofessional, Low Quality Food, High Prices, Warm Beer more

Not the Freshest! cold and soggy fish, got us ill. Un-Recommended 9/14/2008

Poor Seafood, Rubber Steaks, Sour Chowder, Slow Servers- Caution 9/14/2008

My wife, elderly uncle and I went to enjoy some good food. The servers were slow and rude. They did not even pay attention to my uncle. I ordered Fish and Chips. They were very greasy and undercooked. I don't like my fish medium rare. The fries were good. My uncle had grilled halibut. He said it had a ""great garlic butter flavor, but tasted old and also under cooked"". My wife had a burger and fries. She described the burger as ""being dry and rubbery"", but the fries were crisp and delicious The servers never checked on us, and never refilled our drinks. The price was way to expensive. Pros: Cold Soda Cons: Unhealthy, Low Quality more

Great food and portions in a small local eatery 6/10/2008

Several of the the past reviewers sound more like disgruntled former employees..especially as one of the bad reviews was supposedly written by one of the owners!! Pros: Big portions Fresh food Cons: crazy parking lot... more

low quality seafood 2/1/2008

servers are nice, but under pressure. cooks are unprofessional and sloppy. too expensive for low quality, greasy slop! A beer and french fries is about the safest item. the place is dusty and ridden with cob webs. Pros: great fries Cons: disapointing seafood more

Too expensive. Poor service, Undercooked Fish 9/7/2007

Fish smelled old, poor service, prices are too high. Chowder was thin and had no clams. Bread was good but I think it was from a store,. Salad was brown and the dressing was not fresh or tastey. I could here the owner or manager, yelling foul language at the staff. Maybe if they had hard liquer, I could get a buzz then I would care what I ate. NEVER AGAIN! What A JOKE OF A RESTAURANT Pros: They have Beer Cons: Beer is the only good menu item more

Poor Service, Low Quality Seafood! , Health Hazard 9/7/2007

The servers are unprofessional. The dining area was filthy and gross. Flys were landing everywere. I can imagine what the kitchen looks like. The fish and Chips were cold and soggy. I was told it was Cod, but after I took a bite, I could tell it was Pollock which is a cheaper, low grade fish. I sent it back and ordered a Steak. It was way over cooked. You can tell the cooks are only fry cooks and have no bussiness pretending to be real cooks. I sent my steak back and ordered a salad. I figured that they could not screw that up. Boy was I wrong. The lettuce was brown and slimy. The shrimp had an oder to them that means the are far from fresh. The server apologized, with a poor attitude and ofered me a free clam chowder. Big mistake. It tasted like burned sour milk. After all that, the server then charged me for the fish, steak and a salad. I refused to pay and asked for the owner. She was very rude. Even though I sent all items back, she wanted me to pay for all of it, except the clam chowder. The next day I still had the taste of soggy fish, burned steak, slimmy lettuce and sour milk. The few bites I took was enough to make my stomach hurt for hours!! Pros: great parking Cons: terrible food and service more

closest thing in the area to a coastal ""crab shack"". 9/30/2006

very reasonable prices and great shrimp louies. they use cod or halibut for their fish and chips and it is beer-battered on the premises. fresh fish is offered as available. beats the local chains by a mile. lack of hard liquor the only negative. Pros: prices and portions Cons: no hard liquor more
