The waiter, Trevor, was chill and down to earth, we found him very friendly and relatable. Definitely like that. The food was absolutely yummy. I order the Salmon dinner with asparagus and mashed potatoes. The salmon melted in my mouth. The asparagus was cooked to perfection and the mashed potatoes werr moist and delicious. My boyfriend order the steak with fries and onion rings. He said it was iffy only because of the way it was made. The flavor wasn't exactly to his liking but thats also becuse of how we make it back home. Otherwise he was happy with it filled him up. The bar itself is very Irish, super cultural, and a warm feeling. Its a very down to earth place. Other than the live music not super loud. Would come again.

There was only one other couple in the place. Several orders were picked up for takeout in my time there. I naturally tried the clam chowder. Very good. Nice and thick. A very generous portion of fish and chips was served along with coleslaw. The fish was in bite sized nuggets which make them easy to eat. The fish was fresh and tasty with a great complement of tartar sauce and malt vinegar. Coleslaw was on point. Steak fries were decent. This was night 3 of my 12 night stay for work. I will definitely come back to try the lobster roll.

Like season the flour for your breading, coleslaw is pretty mushy, no crisp to it, meaning I probably got the batch that was made 2-3 days ago. I really wanted to rate this higher as I'm a seafood connoisseur, and never been to Massachusetts I was hoping for the best. Now I see why this state is a mass of two sh**s.

Ive had this places pizza at a few birthday parties for my kids friends and always thought it was…read morejust ok. We were in the area today so I stopped in with my son to grab a pizza. Walking into the place it looks a bit disheveled but I'm always down for some character. Let's start with the positive: Place has a pretty extensive menu. That's it. Hands down one of the dirtiest places I've walked into in ages (well over 25 years). I'm totally down for a hole in the wall greasy spoon but this place is GROSS. The walls all are dusty, the area behind the register, counter floor to ceiling looks like a horror movie. Greasy dust bunnies everywhere like honestly think that's what's holding this place together. Everything is sticky and just nasty. The wires behind the hanging TV by the AC has 2inches of cakes on greasy dust. Grime and dust everywhere. Every floor corner, every inch of this place is nasty and falling apart. I've never written a bad review because I know the impact they leave on local businesses. I also worked in food for a long time and know the challenges first hand. I've also walked into some questionable places all over the county but this place should really get closed down and cleaned from floor to ceiling. Cmon guys you're servicing the public clean the mice shit off the window ledges or close down. Nasty Nasty Nasty. That's only what we (the public) can see imagine what the freezers and kitchen looks like. I paid for the pizza which was meh at best and left offended. Not another red cent.

Somehow they manage to make it feel both healthy and a little decadent. We also love the flatbreads and deserts, and the chicken sandwich and burgers have been great as well - really can't miss. The only thing really missing is a few more solid vegetarian protein options - it would be wonderful to be able to get a grilled tofu steak on that Asian Quinoa Salad. Service is fantastic - you enter from the patio side (steps up front and ramp along back of the patio). These guys are well and professionally staffed and we've always been met and seated quickly. All of our servers have been knowledgeable and helpful in making selections. They have regular tables, high tops, bar seating and outdoor tables. There are dedicated water bowls for anyone who brings a pup (outdoors only) and the dogs I've seen have been well behaved and adorable. We've never brought our dog, but he's still greeted and admired by staff as we pass by on a walk. That really says all you need to know about the wonderful people. Parking is in the lot right out front surrounding the small High Street courtyard or on the street. The dining patio overlooks that same courtyard. All in all a great combination of good food and a nice but casual atmosphere.

It was cool how they had seating at the bar and it's right by the kitchen. Our service was good. Very prompt and polite. Our friends ordered the calamari app and bread. Which the bread does run $4 but so worth it! So fluffy and freshly made. We all ate something seafood related. I definitely thought bigger than my belly. I had the fried fish sandwich with cheddar cheese on brioche bread. Comes with 2 sides: picked the garlic & buttered spinach and a baked potato. The sandwich did have a side of what tasted like their own house made tartar sauce. One of our guests split a cobb salad and another one ordered fish n chips that they all enjoyed.

I do not want to sound impolite, but I have been to Lobster Claw multiple times (as my parents and aunt enjoy it) and each time, the food has tasted like nothing but oil and the essence of the fryer itself. I've tried many items on the menu, from their haddock, chicken, fries, crab, etc - yet it all shares a similar oily, almost unclean taste. It lacks seasoning in general, so much so that my sister and I needed to season our meals when we got home, and even that didn't help fully. It also isn't cheap, which makes sense, it's seafood, but expensive prices for incredibly mediocre food simply isn't worth it. A majority of the food tastes the same here and is both unforgettably bland and memorably dissapointing at the same time. Wouldn't recommend if you're looking for unique flavor or good prices.
