I was on vacation from Ct and stopped into Lena's to get seafood. I had the fish chowder it was excellent. We also had the onion rings and the fried clam strips. They were average. Cute place very friendly staff . They are closed Mon and Tuesday we actually hit it on Wednesday. Prices are average. Give it a try I was told it's local favorite. I think I would try the lobster roll next time I'm in the area . Thanks Enjoy Chris M read more

Service was great and the dining space was clean and orderly. Ordered the haddock nuggets 1/2 dinner. Maybe it was a bad grease day but my nuggets were swimming in a deep pool of grease. I couldn't eat them. The Cole slaw was excellent ( might order a quart to go!) read more

Order at the counter and seat yourself. Wait for your ticket to be called and go back up to grab your meal. Despite this style of seating i was pleased with how clean the tables were! Large plates! Delish! No complaints! Glad they had more than fountain drinks, lemonade hit the spot after a long morning of fishing! also fun you can then use your ticket to enter a raffle for a gift card! read more

Went yesterday, partner got the grilled cheese and onion rings it was delish. I got the seafood plate with haddock, shrimp, and scallops, and clam strips. Food was "good" it wasn't bad it just wasn't my style of fried seafood. I feel like it was battered not breaded but I could be wrong. The breading/batter was all soft if that makes sense there was t any structure to the seafood after being fried. Just soft and limp. Flavor was good on the shrimp and scallops. Haddock was ok and strips were floppy and not good. It wasn't awful but I wouldn't go back with so many other places around unless they were so crowded i couldn't get in then I'd go here. read more

shrimp was fine light breading, crisp Onion rings a little oily ,French fries ok. Plate seems a little smaller then it use to be read more

Outstanding seafood! The Clish (clam & fish) chowder was excellent. We split a half & half plate (scallops and clam strips) plus a side of smelts. Everything was hot and delicious, portions were generous, prices reasonable for what you got. It was our first visit, won't be our last! read more

Onion rings are to die for as is the chowder!! The hidden gems of the menu are the cheeseburger special and the hotdog...They're both so ridiculously good. Seafood is always fresh!! read more

I would start out to say I've been coming here to Lena's seafood for decades and it's always the same quality quantity and great prices. I am a fried connoisseur. One of the owners Michelle you couldn't ask for a more polite nicer person if you want your seafood cook lightly or well done or anyway that you prefer it. I see Michelle she's great. All the seafood is wonderful scallops the clams the shrimp everything that's why I keep coming back. Thank you so much Michelle and Family. read more

I have been going to Lena's seafood since the 60's and will continue to go until the day that I die. the food, service and ambiance are all top notch. I always go for the ultimate challenge and go for the Captain hook platter. What a challenge. Onion rings are the best on the planet. Never a complaint and always happy and stuffed when it is time to leave. Highly recommended. read more

Got a clam plate with onion rings and both the clams and onion rings were terrific and served within 5 minutes. read more

Lena's Seafood - a view of the dining room - Seafood Near Me - Salisbury, Massachusetts

Lenas is always consistently great food and fast service .. very clean facility. The onion rings are excellent

The food was good as always, service was pleasant, worth a stop. Tables were clean and comfortable. Selection was broad and price typical.

We stopped here on the way up to Portland ME, it was an authentic family / counter service fish fry place, full of character and good bites. We got the lobster roll (20$ market price), and a sea food plate with clams, haddock, scallops, shrimp, and something else with fries and onion rings. It came up to about 60 $ with a few dollars in the tip jar. No drinks/alcohol here. We enjoyed and left happily full. read more

Lena's has become our go to spot for awesome fried seafood when traveling up and back to Maine. Everything is fresh and quick, never greasy and the best onion rings! Added bonus is we travel with 2 dogs - there are picnic tables outside that we can back right up to in the shade, open the back of the van where the crates are. Definitely stop - and ice cream across the street! read more

We stopped by for lunch. There is plenty of parking. The decor is nice and the theme seems to be whale. There's plenty of seating inside and out. We ordered the Captain Hook's Platter, which had slaw, onion rings, fries, dinner rolls, fried shrimps, scallops, whole clams, and smelts. Everything was fried perfectly and the oil tasted fresh. The paper towels on the tables are much appreciated. read more

Heard about this place on Facebook so we figured we'd make a stop during a trip up to the north shore. I ordered clam chowder wich is watery and a lobster roll which was average. My wife ordered clam strips and shrimp which weren't bad. That's why I gave them 3 out of 5 read more

Solid place good food & staff. In town, lots of locals, fair prices overall. Got fisherman's plate, scallops, burger. All good, big onion rings, facility is a little worn, but adds a little charm. read more

We were all very happy with the clam strips, lobster rolls, fries and onion rings. It was too hot for us old ladies to go out, so we had a younger relative fetch it. I can't comment on the inside facilities, but the food was great. I always know when a lobster roll is good when I need a fork. And the clam strips were abundant. read more

Love this place. Food is always great. I bring the family and generally we go hit baseballs at the batting cage or play some mini golf next door then sit and eat some seafood and finish up with Hodgies across the street. The fried lobster is awesome but it's only there in the weekends read more

Lena's Seafood - a car parked in a parking lot - Seafood Near Me - Salisbury, Massachusetts

This place gets 5 stars from me! My Mom & I would frequently eat lunch here 1x a year in the summer months, after a trip to St.Mary's cemetery on Storey Ave. in Newburyport, Ma. where my Aunt & Uncle are laid to rest. On our way back to NH we would stop for lunch here. THE BEST SEAFOOD in that area!! Casual atmosphere, nothing fancy, but, clean, & really really good!! You order at the counter, and they give you a number and call for you to go get your order when it is ready. You get what you pay for. Cherylyn Butler- Barrington, NH read more

VERY DISAPPOINTED IN Lena's Seafood TODAY... The Scallops were soggy, batter falling off, the clams were a bit better but certainly not the best. The portions were smaller than the last time we went just a couple of weeks ago, and they're now charging $38 for what was about $31 last time. I am pretty sure we just ate for the last time at Lena's Seafood. SAD.... we've been eating there for well over 30 years and it is not the same as it use to be. read more

Excellent food excellent service. Would definitely come back but I didn't appreciate the two women at the end of the service counter, not the girls taking orders, talking politics real loud and really saying some nasty things. I'm not sure who owns this place - maybe one of them do. But it's not a good business practice. read more

Have stopped in here a few times & always forget truly how great it is... A few miles away from the beach & all the traffic of the beach... They have a Drive-Thru... The service is great, the girls are all super nice... The wait is a little long but you have to just wait as everything is being cooked for you super fresh and when you order... Prices aren't crazy & the portions are pretty decent... Will def continue to come back... (Was there last week the day before they closed & read they will be back in March)! read more

Lena's Seafood - Box of Clams and scallops - Seafood Near Me - Salisbury, Massachusetts

Lena's?...yeah....it's alright. We needed to bust out of the CV19 quarantine and took the scenic route to Salisbury for roadside New England clam shack food. Lena's has the perfect squat building and outdated decor that you would expect but the food was...ok. Not bad, not good. The clam chowder was fine, homestyle watery with too much butter. Skip that unless you want to worry about where the next public bathroom is. Fries were good, but how hard is it to make good fries? Onion rings were good, but needed salt and were wet with oil from the deep fryer. Lobster roll was good, but tiny. Too much paprika and not enough lobster for the price. Clams were very good, fresh taste, cooked perfectly, crumb not batter as God intended. Staff was super friendly and managed the pace of CV19 limitations very well. As of today there were ZERO provisions for outside dining, so be prepared to take your food and go, or sit in the overgrown grassy areas. Fried food doesn't travel well so you're chewing in the car for the best taste. In a nutshell, bite the bullet and pay clam shack prices for perfect clams. Everything else and you're getting further and further away from good. Would I make another road trip just to eat at Lena's? Nah, but if I were in the area and wanted local clams cooked perfectly I would grab a box, but that's probably it. read more

Stopped by after reading all the yelp reviews with a party of 9. We ordered the clam chowder, scallop, shrimp sandwich, fish and clam plates, lobster roll, and grill cheese for the kids. The food overall was very fresh. I enjoyed the clam chowder - it is more liquid than the thick consistency, could always use more clam even though there were pieces of actual clams in it. The clam plate was great. Others enjoyed their food - their one concern was that everything was fried and they did not know that even for the sandwiches. The shrimp sandwich consisted of fried shrimps on a roll. They did forget 1 of our items but was able to bring it to us. It is a no frill place that was packed on a sunday morning (mother's day). The service was good, not overpriced. There were kid friendly items (grill cheese for the other kids in our group). Plenty of parking and near major highway. read more

Really wasn't that great the portions are rather small but it was also very expensive for those portions would not go again as there's so many other better places read more

Normally I would give them 5 stars, but after last nights experience my family and I are extremely disappointed. And might I add, I hardly ever use Yelp or write reviews... We ordered over the phone a larger order, my family is in town. 5 plates and two lobster rolls. Probably no surprise the order came out to $170. I had the woman read it back to me over the phone. We get to Lenas early knowing they will be busy and knowing we wanted to double check our order since the last time they forgot a couple things. No big deal, wouldn't happen again, I'm sure?... We get there and there's probably 12 cars ahead of us, and since we didn't pay over the phone we had to wait in line at the drive through. No problem. We waited maybe 20 minutes and finally got to the window, got our order, and before taking off I told the woman I wanted to check everything because the last time we ordered they did forget a couple of things. She insisted to me it was all there, and proceeded to get her receipt and started reading it back to me. I figured she was positive, and maybe the one who packed it, and was just super busy and wanted us to hurry along. So we took about 2-3 minutes going over the order as she read it back to me and I checked it off our list (not going through each bag). We thank her and leave, drive 15 minutes home fast because who wants cold fried seafood? Get home, the family starts opening the bags and come to find out both lobster rolls were missing, the most expensive part of the meal!!? This isn't just a McDonald drive through, people are willing to pay a pretty penny for good seafood, but come on?!? They should be triple checking their orders!!!! Not sure if we'll be back again, and if we do, sorry but were holding up the line to check each and every bag. Everyone else should too! read more
