    Fried clam strips and onion rings
    Alec B.

    Super cheap, classic seaside East Norwalk comfort food! Growing up in coastal New England, most seafood restaurants offered clam strips. This is the first hidden gem in the area that offers them cooked to perfection like the way I remember. Super fast and no frills. Great for a beach day before ice cream at Mr. Frostys

    My husband and I wanted a quick dinner by the water on one of the first warm nights of the spring, and our meal at Overton's was exactly what we were looking for. The lobster was tender and there was a generous serving on the roll, perfectly buttered too. The cod fish and tartar sauce were delicious too. Loved that the lobster roll dinner came with a free soft serve! The seating area was nice, and we had no problem getting a spot for parking across the street. We would definitely come back!

    Delicious lobster roll sandwich was served tonight. It was fresh and hot lobster served on buttery bun! The guy at the cashier was very patient and nice when I asked numerous questions. The weather was pleasant which made eating by water convenient. It was a hit so I will be back at Overton's!

    Cute little local place next to the water. Quick place to stop and grab lunch. Love their hot dogs and fried clams! This place is a great one shot deal. They offer many different options on the menu, as well as ice cream. Plenty of outdoor seating. Service can be hit or miss. Highly recommend!

    Our go-to spot since we've moved to Norwalk for a quick, delicious meal! I've gotten the fried shrimp platter with fries and the fried oysters - both delicious, perfectly fried and generously portioned for the price! The ambiance is perfectly New England - take your red plastic tray and stare over the harbor while you protect your fries from seagulls. Can't beat it

    Disappointed. Frozen fish that wasn't cooked all the way and left me feeling sick. Didn't even come close to finishing the meal.

    Not impressed at all. And I am not a hard critic. But 7 small pieces of shrimp for $8.25? I was disappointed.

    I personally wouldn't recommend this place or come again. Mostly because of point 3 below…read more 1) The presentation of my smash burger was terrible. The burger came all alone on a metal pan. Normally this is fine. But it was terribly presented lonely on a metal plate. I've had smash burgers before that had way better presentation (see Bar 140 in Shelton, who does this job on point). 2) Drinks. Terrible IPA selection, but at least they put Maine Lunch in a normal pint glass. The biggest issue is my wife ordered a couple Old Fashioned. The first was a "normal" sized glass (see pic) from my experience. She ordered a second drink that came out in a "mini" glass. It was ridiculous. It was the size between a shot glass and a normal Old Fashioned glass. I asked about this, see below. 3) When I asked about the smaller glass size on the second drink, the manager came over and said "the small glass is the normal size, you should be lucky they gave you that larger glass by accident" ummmmmmm hellll noooooooooo. I should feel lucky?????? No sir. The first glass was a NORMAL Old Fashioned sized glass. No way in helllll that second glass was "normal" size. She gets these drinks all the time and they all come in size of the first glass. So don't bullshit me..... The way the manager guy approached this is why i am giving a poor review. There is absolutely no way the second glass was normal size. I just can't accept that. It was a ridiculously small glass. Being put down like I don't know anything is not the way you treat people. You need to approach this type of situation differently.

    Came here to have dinner with a friend. When you walk in, there's a dining room to your right and a…read morebar/high top sitting on the left. We just happened to go on Mardi Gras night with a live band! What a great time! The place was so alive and everyone was singing. We stood by the bar and listened to the live band for a while. Then, we went to the dining room side. I had the Mac and Cheese with a side of fries. The Mac and Cheese was so good, I really enjoyed it. The fries were a bit too salty so I didn't finish them. My friend had the Cubano with a side of fries which she loved. I loved the vibe, the food and the staff. Everyone was super friendly and made you feel welcomed. I also saw they have Bingo every 1st of the month, brunch specials and much more. Definitely coming here again!
