Outstanding, bright, fresh seafood. Thorough selection, but in no way intimidating…read more The usual seafood suspects, plus large variety of the good stuff - whole fish, local catch, fresh shellfish, roe etc. All first rate, all on heaps of clean ice ...what a pleasant suprise in the area on a whim. Friendly, experienced and knowledgeable owner, genuine fishmonger. Just ask what's recommended, local or interesting! The pride shows and we departed with an armful of product. Visiting the area w/family and Bay Seafood surpasses what we often see at home on the coast. Will return anytime we're even remotely close. Tonight, beautiful clean filets, rolled in local breading (also available) and right into the cast iron skillet at home (photo enthusiastically uploaded.) Foolproof, clean flavor and texture; a real revelation, capping perfectly, a lovely couple days in area. Cooked to order available as well. **Bonus: fabulous homemade Kimchi! Ask for a taste. Kudos and don't change a thing.

The crab cakes are absolutely not Maryland Style crab cakes but they are priced as if they are. Shrimp snd grits were OK. The Shrimp were a bit chewy. The seafood egg rolls were good! They are worth the money. Everything else was disappointing. It you are going to be open until 9pm you're going to have to find a way to have fresh seafood until 9 or shut the kitchen down earlier. Sorry if this reads harsh. Im a big fan of seafood, i'm from a city built around a seafood industry and I've had real maryland crabcakes.

The salmon was very flavorful. Parking was plentiful. Now, the not so positive, ordering was a negotiation. The website doesn't reflect the current menu. My dinner partner ordered a beer which is no longer on the menu. I ordered the broiled tuna steak dinner which was clearly on the menu. The server returned after turning in the order to report "tuna is no longer on the menu" so I ask if they had broiled salmon and the server went to check. By the time the main course arrive I completely forgot pictures. I felt emphatic towards the server who appeared to be new and also frustrated to not be able to simply serve the customer what they chose from the menu. The dining room was clean, quiet and the staff was friendly.

We had a party of 23; we made reservations in advance. We were seated promptly. The owner came…read moreout and thanked our host for booking at the restaurant. Our waitress was amazing. The issues: A seafood restaurant with no soup or crab cakes, that was a first. At the end of the service, we were informed that the bill could not be split. The cashier was adamant. We wanted to pay for what we ordered individually. After much conversation and a request to speak with the owner, we were informed she was no longer in the building, we paid and left the restaurant. Prior to leaving, I used the restroom, and it was filthy. When we arrived at our destination to review the bill, we noticed we had been overcharged. There were so many upcharges attached (four of the upcharges appeared at the bottom of the receipt, not attached to an individual order). We were charged for 24 drinks, mind you, when we had 23 in our party, and one of the 23 ordered water. The restaurant appears clean; however, I've always been told that if the bathroom is dirty, the kitchen is likely dirty as well. Mayflower Restaurant, this is the second time our group has visited your establishment and left unsatisfied. Needless to say, you lost 23 customers.
