I found this place on Yelp, and it's hard to find one like this off-season if you want seafood, lobsters, and clams. It's casual, quick, and affordable. You order at the counter, and they bring the food out to you. Lobsters this time of year are not cheap. But we got a deal; for $68.99, we got 3 hard-shell lobsters, added 2 lbs of steamers for $5.99/lb., and came with a roll and coleslaw. It was perfect! And BF added a cheeseburger as well and 2 waters. The total bill with tax was around $98. You can't ever beat that. The coleslaw was good that I had to get 2 more for $3. Service was friendly. 5 stars! read more

Majek Seafood & Grill - Fried haddock and sweet potato fries - Seafood Near Me - China, Maine

Best seafood we've had on this vacation to Maine. My wife ordered a lobster roll and I had the mixed fried seafood (pint). We also shared a cheese fries. Everything "hit the spot", we were very satisfied. Loved the breading they use for the fried seafood. My wife's lobster roll had a decent amount of meat on a toasted bun (the way it should be), it was very tasty also. Staff was very friendly and the indoor dining area was a cozy & inviting atmosphere. We'll definitely be back again, hopefully for another time while on this current vacation ! read more

We arrived at 6:40 and there was a sign that says kitchen closes at 6:45, and the whole place closes at 7:00. We tried to order but they said they didn't have pizza. Burgers? Nope. Okay, how about a coney dog? She said it would be a 35 minute wait for a hotdog...it was clear the girl at the counter just wanted us to leave so we did. read more

One of best rolls we ate on trip to Maine! We were passing through and needed lunch! Cute spot that was super clean and the food was great. A local spot for sure. We opted for lobster rolls as a basket. Which included fries and a coleslaw. The roll was PACKED with lobster and delicious. The fries were crispy and the coleslaw was delicious! read more

I would have to say that was some pretty good deep fried lobster. Had a double lobster dinner too and it did not disappoint. Thank you so much. If this New Yorker makes it back that way you guys will definitely be my first stop. The service was fast and the people were awesome. The outside seating was also very inviting. The lobster out front ...perfect touch for out of the area folks to know what you got going on! read more

Majek Seafood & Grill - Tasty - Seafood Near Me - China, Maine

Great roadside lobster shack type of place with indoor seating as well as a covered outdoor pavilion for dining. The best thing we tried was the clam strips which were above and beyond anything I expected. They were crispy and delicious! The lobster roll was delicious and meaty, but the clam chowder was a bit too watery for our liking. read more

Very good food and pleasant proprietors. Excellent sea food and chicken finders. Small place but clean and neat

The crab meat rolls are delicious! They are why we come back and the best thing we've had here, each time. They are always packed with meat and a perfect mayo to crab ratio for our taste. We tried the poutine, which was good. The fries were fresh and it was made with cheese curds, so that was appreciated. The gravy and overall dish was a bit salty, but that's kind of the nature of the dish so we enjoyed what we ate but didn't finish it. I might get this again, but I'd probably opt for plain fries next time. We also tried the fried mushrooms and the haddock sandwich. The haddock sandwich was fine, but fell apart and was extremely messy to eat because it had shredded lettuce (not whole lettuce leaves) and tarter. We wouldn't choose it again. The fried mushrooms were also a disappointment. Some were hot, some were cold in the middle, and most were mildly warm. The flavor of the mushrooms and breading were also just meh. It was clear they were frozen and not homemade. So I would recommend selecting something else, and would probably go as far as to suggest it be removed from the menu since there are clearly other things this establishment does better with. Overall, stick to the fresh seafood and fries. This place is no frills, but has everything needed. They're usually busy, but the line usually moves right along and the food comes out quickly. read more

Majek Seafood & Grill - Crab meat roll - Seafood Near Me - China, Maine

We were really looking forward to lunch here as our past experience was excellent. It's possible we came on a bad day. I actually had a good experience this time around as my crab roll was as fresh and delicious as the last. I asked for very light Mayo and it was perfect. Dad ordered clam strips and they were not good. Literally. He ended up quite sick and mom and I both tried one and agreed they just tasted off. Many of them were stuck together, too. Mom had haddock and it looked about as bad as she said it tasted. Very wet and much of the meat was a very odd red color. I'd probably go back and try it again sometime. For now, though, neither dad nor mom want anything to do with seafood. read more

The seafood is very fresh and cooked to perfection. The staff is very friendly and the place is spotlessly clean. I'm not a fan of the coleslaw, it has way too much dressing on it for my taste. This place would be nearly perfect if they would ditch those coated frozen fries and replace them with homemade fries. I'd stop by again if we were in the area. read more

I've had a few lobster rolls in the past 60+ years Majek tops, Clams are also near the top fresh, cooked to perfection.

Best haddock sandwich and lobster roll in Maine. We went to eat here just for lunch on the way to bar harbor and to our surprised; this was by far the best restaurant in Maine. We tried to tell the owner how good it was but I think he didn't realize that we meant it lol. read more

Excellent food! We ordered the small lobster roll which was creamy and packed full of large pieces of lobster. The fried clams strips were fresh and amazing. Not chewy. And the poutine was filling and great flavors. We relaxed outside while my toddlers loved playing on the seesaw shaped like an airplane. We will be back! read more

We did take out on a rainy day and brought the food home. Excellent taste and generous servings. I got the lobster roll. Don't be fooled by the size of the package as there was a lot of lobster meat. It was excellent. Shoestring fries were also good. My husband got the mixed seafood basket. (Fries, coke slaw, and tarter sauce included.) It was great! The batter was perfect and the seafood and fish were delicious! All staff were friendly.... would definitely recommend. read more

Great service and food came hot and tasted as fresh as it could be. My wife got fried lobster. She couldn't believe how good it was and said it was even better than what we get on the cape. My scallops were a bit small but fresh and cooked perfectly. Nice little buttered bun and fries came with the basket. We're glad we found it. We ate inside but there is a nice outside picnic area that's covered read more

HOLYYYYYY SHEEEEETTTTT this place was INCREDIBLEEEEEEEE. Visiting from NYC and drove a half hour out of our way to nosh at this place. I'm embarrassed to say 2 of us devoured an entire clam basket, onion rings, lobster roll, and chicken fajita roll sandwich deliciousness. Best freaking lobster roll I think...I know...I've ever had. Get it with butter. You won't regret it. And the homemade tartar sauce?! Perfect amount of pickle chunkiness and flavor that will make your tastebuds explode. Place is super clean too. Never seen such an immaculate restroom. We will be dreaming about this place until we come back next year. Go. Go now. read more

What a gem... lobsters rolls + lobsters at a very reasonable price! As we were driving from VT to Maine to visit Arcadia National Park, we decided to stop by Mjek Seafood & Grill as a mini celebration after crossing state line into Maine! (yes, yes, we knew this place was not even close to coastal Maine, but hey, as a visitor to Maine, lobsters should be on everyone's mind EVERY DAY while they are in Maine, right? This place is really just a hole in a wall shack sitting in the middle of nowhere, so unless you knew about it from someone or read about it from somewhere (like Yelp), chances are this place probably isn't on anyone's radar at all. Their lobsters were definitely on a cheaper side, around $12-$14 (depending on whether you got soft/hard shelled ones. We got twin lobster meal with corn on the cob and a lobster roll (around $12-$15, I don't remember the exact price) and woo...it was super yummy. The lobsters were freshly cooked off the pot and we enjoyed cracking oysters and dipping them into butter sauce. The corn on the cob was heavenly buttery (lots of butter sauce on it!) and...the lobster roll was yummy with a slight taste of creamy mayo and buttered buns, too. P.S. Mjek does also seem to have problem getting their meals out promptly. The problem was that their menu selection was too large when they could really focus on seafood like what their name alludes to. They sell everything from pizza to french fries to lobsters. We stopped by around 5-6pm and saw few locals got frustrated with Mjek because they had to wait too long for the food to go. For us visitors on vacation in Maine, we didn't really mind enjoying our time at a slower pace, so that wasn't a problem for us. read more

Majek Seafood & Grill - Twin lobster dinner, lobster roll, corn on a cob, coleslaw and roll. - Seafood Near Me - China, Maine

We stopped here for dinner. It was soooo yummmmy. The hot buttered lobster roll was perfectly cooked. The lobster was legit. Not chewy. Very much fresh. The hot crab roll was just as perfect as the lobster roll. I also had the haddock basket with cheese fries. The haddock had a nice crispy light batter. The fish was flaky. The tartar sauce was a nice compliment to the fish. The cheese fries were good as well. Fries were cooked to my liking. Not soggy! Just a forewarning, the cheese sauce has a bit of a kick as if like a nacho cheese sauce. They have outdoor seating so I was able to bring my dog. She had an order chicken. Definitely give a try! read more

I've never had such gross fried mozzarella cheese sticks at a restaurant. I think they must've been Walmart brand, they tasted worse actually. And they were expensive! I've been here 4 times. The lobster rolls were decent but other than that, I experienced nor saw anything to write home about, unfortunately. read more

Great stop for fresh seafood when driving from Boston to Acadia. Friendly service, fast, delicious.

Great place right off the main road. This is not on the water but the people, service and food were all great. Got the bigger lobster roll and clam strips. Both were A+. I would get the homemade chips over the French fries. read more

Best lobster roll I've ever had! Next time I'm in Maine I will definitely be back! Fast service and good prices and it was amazing!

It might be hard to believe, but this little place does it eight. Good seafood( crab roll to die for) and reasonable prices. Worth the trip. read more

I still can't get over the fact that they have a town named China... Anyways, I actually ended up picking the "scenic route" and driving 20 minutes out of the way to get here. And alas it is literally a trailer in someone's yard. But please let us not believe that as a negative thing. It was 10AM and I'm pretty sure we're the first customers of the day. Ordered a lobster roll and a twin lobster dinner. Had we known, we would have called ahead. I did enjoy my company (husband) so the 15-20min wait for the lobster to cook was just fine. Lobster roll was great. Really plump meat. If I had to be super picky, perhaps I could use slightly less mayo, but ah it's fine. Whole lobsters were really good too. Oh I would order the soft shells next time, the hard shells were a pain to crack. Awesome food, cheap, definitely will come back again if in the area! read more

Delicious but very pricey ..can't afford for a family of 4+... the owner seems a bit uptight.

I give one star because of health concerns. No divider between customers and cashier. Employees don't wear masks or gloves. Self-serve communal salt and pepper shakers and bottle of vinegar. Picnic tables are closer than 6 feet. Throwback to pre-corona days. Health be damned. Observing patrons, my experience having been here twice in one week (and never again) most people didn't posses a mask, some people didn't respect social distancing, fewer people didn't respect personal space. I have been dining here for years since the food is decent. I want to support businesses but for the foreseeable future I'm taking my business elsewhere. Having been here twice in one week, the food was inconsistent. Small things: cheese was not melted on the burger, they forgot the tarter sauce. The worst part, my order number was called out after over 40 minutes of waiting and I retrieved my (incomplete) order; I was told I still had to wait for my lobster...annoying. I splurged on lobster to support the lobster men, all I wanted was my order on one tray. I waited in the sun near enough to the window, 5 minutes, not ready; 10 minutes, told to keep waiting; then 15 and still not ready. 20 minutes passed, the cashier forgot and gave it to someone else. No apology, no refund offered, I had to another 20 minutes for my complete order only to see they forgot the claw cracker. After the lobster debacle I gave them a second chance to redeem themselves and there will be no third, not until post-COVID. read more

Majek Seafood & Grill - The big roll. Huge and amazing. - Seafood Near Me - China, Maine

wow just WOW! WOOOW!!!!! This might be the best lobster i've had in my life and its on the side of a country road away from any tourists or city. this place is no nonsense. just awesome lobster! fresh lobsters with light butter. call 20 mins ahead and they will steam it for you so its ready when you arrive. the lobsters were meaty, sweet and reasonably priced at $21 for 2 with fresh corn on the cob, bread and slaw. we also got the lobster roll. this thing was massive. meat was the great like steam lobsters with light mayo. roll was toasted and not dry. the kicker was the lobster stew. it was creamy and slightly sweet. not too heavy on the cream. the flavor of the stew didnt over power the lobster meat. also the stew had giant hunks of lobster. i would say there was 70% meat and 30% liquid. just awesome. this place is basically a shack with a tent with and tables. there i a sink to was your hands after. owners are nice too. read more

2.25 stars rounded to 2. The lobster rolls were quite delicious but the fried whole belly clams were very bad. The texture was off as if they had been previously frozen and there were many bellies which could not be eaten. The batter was also too thick. It was probably a bad sign that nobody else stopped there to order while we were there. Also checkout took a while because one of the owners (?) was using the phone which they need to process your card. The area outside of the restaurant did not seem particularly clean and smelled fishy and not in a good way. If we had just gotten the lobster rolls I would probably have left a 4 star review. read more

Great little spot near China Lake. Large menu reminiscent of the Red Barn. To get a real taste of the place I got a small lobster roll, pint of whole-belly fried clams, and poutine. Total was about $41 and everything was excellent. The pint of clams was huge. See pic. On future visits I'd probably just get a large lob roll -- the fried stuff was a rare treat for me but fried seafood aficionados will love the clams. Good lob rolls are not as easy to find in Central Maine as on the coast so the place is a great resource. read more
