    Broken steamer clams

    I wouldn't run back here. The clam strips are hardly coated and the breading falls off. The fries, lobster roll, and clam chowder were great. We got two pounds of steamers which were good, but 25% of them were broken shells so you don't know if they were alive. See photo. Not cheap either. Cool restaurant with nice outdoor seating.

    Chicken pesto panini

    Always a good spot for a quick bite. Good icecream too. Friendly staff who brings the food right to you

    Amazing stop for seafood. It's easily accessible from the Cape Cod Rail Trail (you just have to cross one busy road) and they have a bike rack/plenty of outdoor seating. We came during Sunday lunchtime and didn't have to wait super long to get our food (a god-send, considering how famished I was). They have an extensive menu of basically everything seafood. - Lobster panini: I have a soft spot for paninis. Filled with generous chunks of lobster and lots of cheese, this one was an elevated take on a grilled cheese. Bread was perfectly nice and toasted, with beautiful griddle marks, and didn't scrape the roof of my mouth bloody. 10/10! - Caesar salad with crab cake and scallops. Another must-order. My favorite part of this meal was the crab cake - so moist and dense and well-seasoned, stuffed with crab meat, no filler at all. The scallops were expertly cooked, a nice sear on the outside and tender in the middle, but I would have eaten another crab cake. The only thing I'd skip next time was the lobster bisque, which was just okay, kind of one-note, and not much lobster bits. And I wish they had bottles/cans of drinks, instead of fountain cups with no refills - my cousins/friends living in Europe would be horrified at how quickly I demolished a medium size cup of fountain soda (which, to my eye, looked practically kiddie-sized). Seating: right out front next to the road, indoors, and a back patio. If not for the bikes, we would have picked the back, which was a lot quieter and less dusty. I kept eyeing the ice cream selection but decided, in a rare show of restraint, not to get any, considering I had to bike back to the parking lot.

    When you see their menu and wonder if you should try it, just say, "yes". Everything here is so good! We were on town for a few days and we ate there three times. Wish I could fly their stuff to home fresh. Since you can't, go there while you can

    Clam chowder
    Phil C.

    This was truly a mixed bag. The better parts of the meal were the clam chowder and the grilled scallops. The chowder was creamy and briny at the same time. Definitely worth getting. The grilled scallops, while not the largest I've ever seen, were nicely cooked and sweet. The hot lobster roll was close to being a hot mess. The lobster, while plentiful, was overcooked and stringy. It was quite a disappointment. The sides with the grilled scallops were forgettable, with bland veggies and puzzling rice and beans. Service was pretty good, and the ice cream was cold. It's right on 6A, so the restaurant is easy to spot.

    Fisherman's platter for two

    This is good seafood. Not Dazzled up and a fair price for the food get. We went twice while we were visiting Brewster in Cape Cod. The reason we went twice was it is convenient to area where we were staying and I liked the chowder. The first visit we had the fisherman's platter for 2 and clam chowder. Lots of fried fish, clams, shrimp, scallops onion rings and French fries. Could have fed 4 people. The chowder was very creamy and good flavor. Lunch the next day was 1 pound of there steamers, a clam chowder and crab cake sandwich. Everything was good again and fresh.

    Order counter

    I stopped by for a lobster roll this week and was informed by the person at the counter that JT's was closing for the season after Sunday, September 15, 2024. I had been to JT's Seafood earlier this Summer and ordered the same items: a hot lobster roll and cup of lobster bisque. During my earlier visit the lobster roll was as expected and the lobster bisque was hot and delicious; however during my visit on Thursday September 12, 2024 the lobster roll and bisque were unsatisfactory. The bun was so soggy I couldn't pick up to eat it. They appear to have been short on lobster meat as they had clearly added some imitation crab meat to the hot lobster without checking to see if that was ok, which it was not. If I'm ordering a lobster roll, I'm expecting all lobster. The lobster that was there was overcooked. The lobster bisque was bland and luke warm. Clearly if you can't maintain standards you shouldn't stay open for this long into September, closing a week earlier might be better or perhaps taking menu items off the menu if you can't ensure quality. It was a very disappointing experience as I'm a fan of JT's Seafood - pro tip - avoid going there before they close for the season. Note the photos are from my earlier visit.

    Poke bowl.  Well, rice and tuna bowl
    Marty S.

    Always looking for great spots on the Cape and wanted to try JT's. Totally unimpressed. Service was slow and unfriendly. We ordered a poke bowl, chicken wrap and the luncheon special, a lobster roll for $20. Chicken wrap was the best thing we got. There was a good amount of chicken, and it was tasty. The poke bowl was just kinda strange. The good news was that it had plenty of tuna and rice. The bad news is...that was basically it. Two microscopic slices of avocado, very little seaweed, a few strands of seaweed, and no sign of any onions. Also, the Chili sauce was very spicy, and it overwhelmed the taste of the tuna. The lobster roll had an ample serving of lobster but the bun was toasted without butter. As a warning, after paying we looked at the receipt and the lobster roll was $29 not $20. There was a long line of people ordering but I went back up to ask. The counter person told me "oh, that is without a side and you said you wanted cole slaw." We said "we don't want $9 cole slaw. She just stared at me and said "that's what you ordered." We stared at each other for a bit but I walked away because I didn't want to make a scene. My mistake. But I did make one decision, I will never go back.

    Came here for dinner on Wednesday night with a party of 7 (some of which are very picky)…read more The ambiance was nice, busy, lively conversations and big screen tvs throughout restaurant. We were able to make a reservation a few hours before we got there and were seated right away. Our table ordered a variety of dishes; for apps we had calamari and chicken wings (crispy and with a delish garlic/parmesan/cilantro sauce) that we also dipped our table bread in. For entrees, we had the star of the show, the mocajete dish, steak tips, chicken caprese dish, chicken parm dishes, scallops w/pasta and salmon and risotto dishes. All were delicious and devoured. The service was good and tap water taste a little different, not sure if that's a Cape Cod thing. The entrees did seem to take a little long to come out and not all at the same time. All in all, everyone was happy with their dish. Highly recommend this place.

I did takeout here when it was still the pandemic days. The lobster and clams linguine was generously portioned with a full lobster, lots of clams, and an abundance of linguini. The fisherman's stew was chock full of fish and other seafood, with a flavorful and briny broth. I came here for in-person dining recently and it seemed like the portions were smaller than before I suppose it's shrinkflation but not the most pleasant. The shrimp scampi was fine but nothing to write home about. I think the best part was the pasta, which was homemade. The seafood bowl special had scallops on the half-shell but they were definitely bay scallops, which was disappointing. Service was prompt and friendly. The restaurant is not a bad choice but if you're here on vacay, you can (and should) find something better.

We dined outdoors in the early July evening, and the atmosphere was perfect. Our server struck the perfect balance between friendly/casual and attentive. Spinnaker offers some fun cocktails, and a tight and focused wine list. A Greek salad (different, with a creamy dressing) was a nice, fresh starter. The bolognese was practically life-changing, and also a balm for my pasta soul, coming a few weeks after a very disappointing carbonara. I'd have a hard time ordering anything else on a return visit, though there are so many tempting items on this menu. The short ribs were also a standout here, with a variation from the typical takes. And then there was the bread pudding. Again, practically life-changing. Do not skip this dessert. We do not live anywhere near the Cape, but if we're ever back, I'll certainly make a return visit a priority. Just wow.

Standout dishes were the bolognese and the caramel bread pudding. The chickpea fritters were also excellent, and a special shoutout to the fresh complimentary bread served with olive oil; it was a great way to start. The Caesar salad was good, but nothing particularly memorable. We visited to celebrate my mom's birthday. They added a candle to the dessert we ordered, which was a nice touch, but there wasn't much additional acknowledgment of the occasion. If you're looking for a restaurant that goes above and beyond for special celebrations, this may not be the best choice.
