    Coleslaw, corn, & roll
    Rebecca S.

    I was asked if this was a special on the 3 lobsters for $51 & yes it was. I don't know how often they have this. I saw in another review that they did the same thing with crab legs for a special.

    Lobster Dinner

    went again!!! and it was still delicious!! the Clams Casino were so good!!! the bruschetta tasted good, but unfortunately, they forgot to give us mozzarella on it, which was sad but was still fresh and tasty! The lobsters are to die for!!!! in the crab legs was just really delicious, you could totally skip on the clam chowder because as a clam chowder lover, it was only like a 2.5/5, it was a Saturday night, so it was pretty busy, but it was always to put in a reservation!! it's so nice there aswell but can get loud with the people around!

    The food was absolutely great! I ordered the crab legs and got six for $51 which is honestly a steal considering the quality and portion size. They were fresh, flavorful, and cooked perfectly. The only thing that would've made this a full five-star experience for me is a tea candle butter warmer. Having warm butter throughout the meal really elevates crab legs, and that small touch would've taken everything to the next level. The place itself isn't fancy, but that's completely okay. Some of the best food comes from spots that focus more on flavor than décor, and this is definitely one of those places. I'd happily come back for the crab legs again!

    This is the second time at 2-Forks but they either changed the chef, menu or both as the food was night and day different. Previously it seemed to be focused on fried options where now it's shifted to fresh seafood and the quality shows. Maybe that's why the rating is so low. Ordered the steamed clams as appetizer, followed by lobster and crab leg entrees and tiramisu for dessert. I could not imagine the amount of food you get for the price. Clams were a little over $1/each, 2 lobsters (w/sides) for $40 and the 6-king crabs legs (w/sides) was $50 and all of it was what you would expect from a more higher end establishment (think more Remington tavern and less Storming Crab). It's the only time I've ordered shell fish where I've had to get a to-go box. The dessert choices were also pretty exceptional, perhaps too many with about 20 different options, and the tiramisu tasted home made. Honestly, the only knock on the place is that the decor feels a little dated and the patio where we sat could use a fresh coat of paint and some weed pulling but I almost hope they leave it how it is to avoid them raising prices. If you are looking for some great seafood around Buffalo at a reasonable price, this should be right there at the top of the list

    I don't know why this restaurant gets such low reviews. We've never had a bad meal here. I came here for the 3 main lobster dinner for $49. The lobsters ,as usual, were cooked perfectly The dinner comes with half ear of corn(which is stingy),coleslaw and roll and butter.My wife enjoyed her Fried Shrimp Dinner and or friends raved about their Beer Battered Fish Fries. Even though the restaurant was packed our meals came out promptly. They have inside and outside seating. You come here for the food not the decor.

    I'm a bit late in posting my recent reviews. We were in at the restaurant a little over a week ago. It was 7/2... me, my fiance, and his mom. She had heard great things and loves seafood so she wanted to check it out. The website sounds great, the yelp reviews and photos sent me in a bit hesitant. Upon arrival, Mom was glad there was a ramp since the stairs outside are a bit steep. We had a reservation and were seated immediately. Unfortunately inside there were almost as many steps to get back down to the seating area. There is a back door of sorts that goes out to the patio that she could've used but we didn't know. It wasn't busy at all. There is a good amount of seating and we were one of just a handful of parties there. It took a while before the waitress came over to take a drink order. Mom ordered the clam chowder, and I had the corn and shrimp chowder that came with my platter. The corn chowder was delicious. I mean, one of the best soups I've had ever. Mom preferred it to her clam chowder. For our meals, she had the fish fry, I had the fisherman's platter and my fiance had the shrimp surf and turf. Mom felt the fish fry was very greasy, and she was not a fan of the cole slaw. I agreed when I tried it, but cole slaw is one of those "to each their own foods." My fisherman's platter had a good amount of food. Don't forget it included my soup. Then it had fried shrimp, calamari, cod, crab cake and fries. I'm not a calamari person, but you can't substitute it out, so I have no feedback there. The cod and shrimp were both over fried. The crab cake was good but the menu says crabcakeS and there was one. It seemed like a frozen, not fresh or homemade cake. But it was good. The meal wasn't horrible but it left something to be desired. The sidewinder fries are fabulous though. The surf and turf meal was mostly a win. Steak was cooked well, potatoes and veggies were good. Shrimp was also overcooked. I am disappointed that we weren't blown away because I loved the shrimp chowder and definitely want to go back for more!

    Food was great. A bit pricey for the amount but was really good. Service was wonderful and sitting on the outdoor patio is a must.

    Dinner tonight was excellent, although a bit pricey. We split an order of crab legs, calamari, and oysters!

    Is this restaurant good or not? Such conflicting opinions...

    The food looks good but the restaurant is extremely dirty. There were ants sill all around the window and the baseboards. My granddaughter spilled her drink and they did not even clean up the spill. I will never go there again.

    Mother's Day brunch- we didn't have reservations but were able to be accommodated at the bar…read more Service was attentive and relatively quick based on the crowd. Food was good. The price was a bit more than I thought it was worth for the breakfast platter and shrimp & rice (not quite Hawaiian fried but good). Except for the lobster Mac & cheese. Real huge lobster chunks- large portion. Mom was happy so that's what mattered! Loud, family friendly location. Lots of seating.

    My husband and I just ate here for an early Valentine's lunch. Michelle was a great waitress but…read morethat's where the positivity stopped. As we've eaten here before, we got the nachos and chicken Mac and cheese. The nachos were the saddest looking thing we've ever seen. No toppings on half of them. When we brought it to Michelle's attention, she offered to bring us more (pico, cheese and beans). She did say portion sizes have changed according to the kitchen-okay so $14 for less food, got it. But at least she tried. Then the mac and cheese came out. This couldn't be disappointing, right? Well. Despite us ordering the EXACT same thing, my husbands portion was literally double the size of mine!! It was like I had the kids version. I'm Not sure if Ray Charles was in charge of portion control but it was such a disappointment and we will not be back. $51 plus tip for a terrible valentines meal. Thank you, Michelle , for trying your best. NYBP, do better.

    Their holiday mimosa flights can be hit or miss relative to marketing, but the food is always solid. No more Cali bennies though. Sad.
