We will likely not come back. I really try not to use this as a place to complain about prices, but in this case, I have to make an exception. Upscale prices, casual atmosphere, your food is served on a tray. The butternut squash zupa was very good. The potato leek soup was bland, unimaginative and contained a couple of pieces of something that was like a bone. I'm sure it was a seasoning and he told us what it was but I'd never heard of it. My advice? Strain it out of the soup. The soup sizes are closer to a cup than a bowl. 2 soups no drink $25. $30 with a tip. I'm glad this place is hopping and does a good business but honestly, they've lost mine.

It was fairly busy (and thus a bit noisy), so reservations are probably a good idea.

The Korean BBQ scallops were everyone's favorite, cooked perfectly, and with a wonderful soy miso flavor that did not overwhelm the delicate seafood. The pan seared halibut was perfectly cooked and delicious as well, and went well with the Ken. Wright Cellars Pinot Noir. Finished with the blueberry crisp and chocolate raspberry cake. The blueberry first was so good - Rich deep flavor and one of the best desserts I've ever had - and I've been all over the world during the last 50 years. The raspberry cake was excellent too - a fresh raspberry flavor with hints of vanilla.

I have been to quite a few fish markets and I have found that most of them do not give their…read moreproducts any justice. I have been very disappointed with the fish's freshness and quality much less the variety. I was produce shopping when noticed a line of people toward the back of the store. I decided to investigate and discovered Sal's Fresh Seafood Market. As I stood and watched, I saw the show cases full of seafood as well as fish. The people behind the counter had smiles on their faces, when as the customers turned and left, they all seem to be very happy. I decided to give this place a try. It was my turn to be served and was greeted very cheerfully. The fish looked very fresh. I picked a few items paid for them (the price was good). I have to say that this product was very fresh and better than most places I have been to. A very nice surprise! in short, Great fish, at a good price. Needless to say, I will be buying ALL my seafood at Sal's Fresh Seafood Market.

And they have the displays to match. On this partly cloudy afternoon, I was in search of lobster tails. Upon requesting them, I discovered two things.. 1.) Unfortunately, the tails offered are not very big. Near as I can figure, they come in packs of 3 of what appear to be around 5 ounces each. 2.) Lobster really IS more affordable if you buy it in Maine. For context, a standard two pack of lobster tails at 5 ounces each (or sometimes 4oz) costs me around $25 in NH at the time of writing this review. The 3 pack of the same size tails costs the same price here at Taylor. So, naturally I bought two of those and ultimately nabbed a little under 2 pounds of lobstah for a mere $50. Sufficed to say - we will most certainly return at a future date. I have my eyes set on the fresh lobster meat next. As mentioned, everything in the glass display looked delicious. The place is easy enough to find. Just be aware their entrance is actually not in the front of the building, but on the right hand side. It's a little confusing at first, especially considering the tiny street view sign doesn't help much. If you drive into the "boat drop off" section, you're on the wrong side. Other items I wouldn't mind trying next visit are their lobster bisque and clam chowder. If you're coming across the border as I do, one pro tip I'd offer is to bring a cooler to keep your produce in for the day as you travel back. We transported the lobstah back in my car on an 85 degree day and the gel ice packs kept everything cold enough not to oxidize. Definitely check this place out for all your fresh seafood needs. The locals have spoken and I agree; Taylor Lobster Company is worth 5 fresh, buttery lobstah tails charred on the grill out of 5.

They had been here before and wanted to try the smash burgers. I'm a fan of seafood so I ordered the scallop plate. At only $18 I wasn't expecting much. We placed the order and made our way to the restaurant where it was already all set for us! The cashier who checked us out was friendly and the building itself was nicely decorated and spacious. It was busy for a Friday night but not jam packed. When we got home I noticed that they forgot my tartar sauce- a bummer. But the food itself more than made up for the momentary disappointment. The portion size was huge for the price! There must have been atleast 16 scallops in there. Even though we ordered take out the food was still nice and crispy. The batter was excellent and the fries had a great crunchy coating. I would highly recommend Fish and Chix to anyone in the area. It may seem unassuming but the food quality and portion size is amazing! I'm happy we stopped by and will ask to go again.
