Was in town with the family and decided to check out this restaurant, though we didn't realize it was Founder's Day for Lee since some restaurants were closed. Outside the entrance, there was a sign indicating the restaurant was hiring for all positions but we walked in anyway. After pointing out a couple of dishes with minor stains, our hostess/waitress checked in on us every so often and offered a swap of plates each time new appetizers and entrées came into the picture. All of us highly appreciated the gesture since we realized she felt bad and wanted to rectify what happened. It seemed as though she was burning the candle on both ends as both the hostess and waitress as the restaurant got busier and definitely needs the help. When the clam chowders and lobster bisque arrived, no one hesitated to make sure the bottom of their bowls saw light. The jumbo shrimp cocktail had a good chill and a nice pop while the Maryland lump crab cakes contained a very good amount of crab meat and too not much bread filler. The baked stuffed mushroom caps could've used much less bread in the stuffing as the consistency to the palate was doughier. The seared ahi tuna tacos had nice texture between the tuna, avocado and coleslaw but didn't emit much heat to round out the flavors and the shrimp and scallops alfredo, though it had many pieces of seafood, was too heavy on the parmesan in the cream sauce. For the prices, we thought it's standard at this point given the cost of inflation. Kudos to our hostess/waitress for being very pleasant and attentive throughout our dining experience. read more

Lobster Roll: oh my! Yes please, may I have another? Service is very slow on this quiet not very busy Friday lunchtime so I am not sure what is going on exactly. Oh well: the beer on tap is ice cold. read more

Cozy atmosphere and delicious food. We enjoyed the fried calamari, baked lobster mac and cheese (a very generous portion), shrimp and scallops alfredo (also a generous portion), seafood fra diavolo (generous portion) and baked cod (my husband thought the portion was on the small side). Would definitely recommend and return. Yum. read more

I really wanted to visit a typical New England seafood house on my trip because that's one thing we just don't get in the Midwest. I chose Salmon Run Fish House as it is "on the turnpike from Stockridge to Boston." Had to work that in... Considering Lee, MA is a good 1 hour plus from an ocean I think it was a pretty good find. I started with a cup of Clam Chowder. The clams and potatoes were well cooked and the broth was nice and creamy. My lunch came out just as I was finished. I got the Whole Belly Clam Roll which came with coleslaw and French Fries. The French Fries were just OK and I didn't even taste the coleslaw but the Whole Belly Clams were a real treat! This is something you never find in the Midwest. They were crispy and briny. This is a really cute small town and I got the impression the majority of the diners were local. Nice family business. I'd absolutely return! read more

Food was great. I had the fish and chips. I've been craving it and I was completely satisfied. Big portions. I had it delivered so I don't know about service. read more

We stopped in here and we're promptly seated (outside). Ordered an amazing Lobster roll. A huge thunder storm rolled in and the manager managed to get us quickly reseated inside. We had the seafood stem and Ahi tuna and both were delicious and our server (Aliona) was great. I saw the manager also walking a customer to her car with an umbrella- that about says it all! We will be back! read more

Salmon Run Fish House - Lobster Roll - Seafood Near Me - Lee, Massachusetts

Good solid New England fish house as far west as distant west Massachusetts. Now that Durgin Park in Boston has closed (which I just learned: shock), you may have to come out here to get that kind of seafood (doesn't have the rest of the menu, sorry). Has the atmosphere of a high-end diner, so it was comfortable and easy to eat here. Though the specialty is salmon, I went for baked scrod, which was tender and flaked easily and had a little crunch on top. Unseasoned, just the flavor of the fish to come through. Took a while to come, so I suspect it was cooked to order. I had lobster bisque to start to occupy the time, and that had good chunks of lobster in it. Oh, and the fish came with the most fantastically good french fries, crispy all the way through as I like them. Well worth going slightly out of my way to stop here. read more

Nice place for dinner or lunch. Nothing special. Good service, nice atmosphere, very busy. We went for an early afternoon dinner and had to wait for a table. We were seated in a short time. We were disappointed to find you can't have baked potatoes until about 5 pm. The dinners were ok, disappointed they didn't grill the bun on the lobster rolls and that they didn't serve hand cut fries. Clam chowder was very good. Total dinner for 4, and 1 beer and one glass of wine was 115.$ Someone I was waiting in line with said they have excellent burgers and I saw some delivered to a nearby table and they did look really good. read more

Another success today at Salmon Run. My all time favorite seafood dish is the Seafood Fra Diavolo, and my mouth is watering just writing. Unlike other places who do a similar dish, Salmon Run puts salmon in the dish. And the sauce is flavorful and has a mild kick. Add some warm bread for dipping and this is a little slice of heaven. Now for my constructive criticism: I think this establishment could upgrade their raw oyster fixings for pickled onions and horseradish, and just fresher cocktail sauce all around. Decent oysters though, but lacking a clear source which is very important to oyster connoisseurs. The crab cakes were actually pretty bad. We didn't finish them. They tasted almost rancid like. Maybe some fresh herbs would do them well. They need to be revamped. Anyway, you guys still have a loyal customer. Cheers! read more

Delightful and popular pub. Great atmosphere. Service not really even average. Still a solid 5 stars!

Comfortable dark booths inside. We both had fish and chips along with an Arnold Palmer. Liked the cod and the fries. Service was also fine. The main thing that bothered us was the bill, around $55 with tip for what we had seemed pretty high. We did consider getting a lobster roll but the price of $29.50 again seemed outrageously high for this modest spot. Our waitress even apologized for the prices! read more

So this place was not bad it just wasn't good enough for any more stars. When we first arrived there was one server on the floor so we knew she was busy . We ordered 2 glasses of wine which were very nice pours and pretty good. We had 2 house salads with blue cheese dressing that came in little plastic containers. Being this is a casual place I will forgive that but leave the plastic for takeout . The blue cheese dressing was store bought but the salad was pretty good size . Server asked if we would like bread and I said yes as I love to have that with a salad . After a wait she said bread was in the oven and it just never came. On my way to the bathroom I saw bread on other tables and it looked really good so that was disappointing. Hubby ordered a burger - medium and it came out pretty rare . He ate it so I can't really complain about that . I had the caramel cake to go and it was really good but super sweet. Almost too sweet. All in all a casual place to go and give it a try . read more

In town for a few days and actually planned on going to a different restaurant but on the way spotted this one. They have their seafood right! Clam chowder was perfect texture. The lobster roll had an option of being served cold (with mayo & celery) or warm with melted butter. The latter was delicious with some very big lobster pieces. I left behind half the roll - too much bread would have taken away from the lobster. But apparently my husband's tuna taco may have even been more delicious than my roll - I want to come back just so I can order it. Skipped the dessert, it was too heavy (mostly cakes) after an already big meal, some lighter options would be better. read more

I have nothing but positive things to say. All the staff were friendly and provided great service. You do need a reservation; however, they were able to get us in. They also do takeout. It's a busy restaurant and it's because all of the food is so good. We had the shrimp snd scallop alfredo. I had it with no pasta. You will not regret going to this restaurant if you are in the Berkshire area. They are also clean and have COVID precautions in place. read more

We are eating such delicious food during our stay in the Berkshires. My bourgeois kids were demanding mussels, so we checked out this restaurant. They got everything their hearts desired - calamari, clam chowder, and mussels. I had a super delicious meal - Baked Cod Florentine. Desserts were also delicious. Service was friendly and fast. I almost ordered the kids 2 bowls of mussels and the waitress advised me that was too much - like how nice! Also, they were very safe upon entry - taking temperatures, contact tracing, etc. Also, I loved sitting in a cozy booth. Great place! read more

The entire sandwich lunch menu was fried even though their door advertises Flame Grilled Fresh Seafood. When asked, the sarcastic waitress just said "I don't make the menu. " in this day and age I can't believe they don't have healthy options. read more

Great service, wonderful menu, excellent food, I highly recommend it. The deserts are great too!

They really should get no stars. There were open tables it was 7:38pm, and they wouldn't seat us, not sure if it was because we were speaking other languages (Italian& Spanish) or our puppy. There was a dog bowl and when I called they said we could sit outside with our puppy. We got there way before they closed and they refused to seat us. Really despicable and mean spirited. When we came back from Another restaurant there were two new tables seated. I couldn't believe it. Do not patronize this place. They are not nice, professional or by any stretch of the word kind. That was rude, and outright shameful of them. read more

we really like this place. For a little while we can feel like we are on the Atlantic shoreline.... Hubby LOVES the lobster roll and whole belly fried clams (!), while the potato skins appetizer is a favorite of mine. Reservations help, though the kind and understanding staff often accommodate our last minute plans and find a spot for us. A longtime fixture in Lee, Salmon Run deserves the love of the many who return to its 'shores' for a nice meal, cheerful and good service, and that feeling of being taken care of. read more

Our favorite place for fish fry and other pub food ( burgers and beer ) plus assorted salmon dishes. Reasonable prices, friendly service, cozy atmosphere. Food comes out hot, plated very nicely. We ordered cups of clam chowder and lobster bisque, both delicious and tasted homemade. Burgers cooked to order and were tender. Good portions. Fish fry served in metal baskets and delicious. Kids burger with onion rings also good. Daughter's salad with shrimp was good but shrimp a bit to spicy for her taste. She also ordered french onion soup and said that very good. Sides of coleslaw fresh and tasty. Sweet potato fries cost extra. Fries ok We have a variety of the salmon dishes in the past and all good. Nice dessert list. read more

We were very disappointed with the host. There was an open table on the sidewalk and a couple had just sit down before us and got menus. We did have a dog so we couldn't go in and we chose to sit at the only other open table. I went in to get a couple menus and explain the situation to the host. He looked at me and said he they were too busy and that he would not do it. Obviously we didn't even get to try the food or any further interaction with the restaurant. No restaurant is above customer service. Very disappointed. Not even worth the one star. read more

We had amazing service from our server Chris! The food was pretty good! The clam chowder was the low light of the meal. The beer was great and everyone was pleased with what the ordered. I had the baked seafood platter and it was good! My daughter had the crab legs and polished all of them off. The surf and turf was good the flank steak was prepared perfectly. The grilled salmon was also really good! The entire experience was great due to our server! So I'd like to thank him! We will go back even if it's just for a beer and some calamari. read more

Salmon Run Fish House in downtown Lee is another restaurant we frequent when in town. It delivers good consistent meals at affordable prices. Although, their emphasis is seafood the menu has plenty of meat and even vegetarian choices! Their daily specials are awesome! You can find Salmon Run Fish House on a corner of Main Street very close to church. There is a municipal parking lot in the back in case you can't find street parking. The restaurant is airy with an old-fashioned atmosphere; it is divided into two sections; as you enter there is a smaller area filled with booth type sitting and bar area towards the back. To the right there is spacious dining area with different table sitting configurations. We have always been satisfied with their service and food; whether you are craving seafood or one of the best hamburgers around, this restaurant will not disappoint! read more

Food is great and the staff are so amazing. Always friendly & helpful. This is my 11-yo son's favorite restaurant and we always stop when in area (we live over 1 hr away); they are always busy but they always find something for us. read more

Very pleasant experience. Had a dozen fresh shucked clams, and the baked cod Florentine. Was not swimming in butter sauce. Everything was fresh and well prepared. Side of sautéed veggies were good, and baked potato. Haven't been thrilled with my Berkshire meals this trip and this changed it up for me. Thou shalt not starve if you drive to Lee. read more

We recently dined outdoors at Salmon Run after a three plus year gap due to COVID. We both ordered the Ahi Tuna with risotto which was excellent. The service was prompt and courteous. We hope to return soon. read more

Service was fantastic and the food was wonderful. Great menu with so much to choose from. I cannot wait to return.

Everything on the menu at this restaurant is very delicious. It's as if there's a five star chef in the kitchen at all times. Though everything is great, my top two favs are the crab legs and prime rib! The atmosphere is very comfortable and this is the perfect place to bring a date. The staff is very friendly and they make the experience serene. read more

It is a Clean restaurant with kind staff and good food. I'd go back for sure! It's well located in this great neighborhood. Thank you!

The service and feed was very good, but I good food poisoning and was very I'll for three days.

Always good good abs good service. The salmon for dinner was extremely well seasoned and properly cooked as salmon should be. Veggies still crisp. The mixed greens salad and shrimp cocktail rounded out my order. I could eat shrimp cocktail all day. Great tangy cocktail Al sauce. I needed more shrimp to use it up :-(. read more

Extremely fresh seafood. Every bite is delicious. Carryout is just as good as eating in.

I really enjoyed eating here. The food was good and well prepared. The service was nice and we had a great table.

Popular restaurant especially with the summer crowd. Patrons mostly older that have likely been frequenting for years. At 60, we were the youngest people in the room! Reservations a MUST on a weekend (in season). Known for their seafood dishes (as the name implies) and they didn't disappoint. Ordered app of oysters ($2/piece) that were fresh and tasty. Baked fish platter had scallops, shrimp, haddock and salmon in a lightly breaded topping. It comes with a starch and mixed veggie. Would have preferred to sub a salad, but not an option. Chicken parm was thick and had a tasty chunky tomato marinara. This came with a mixed greens salad that was good but a bit wilted from obvious advance prep. House bread was an Italian rustic loaf that was worth the bite. Good service, good food, we will be back. read more

My father called the restaurant at 4pm, asked what time they closed, they told him 9pm. Got there at 8:15, got the whole "I'm sorry we closed at 8 tonight." When asked why the hostess stated, "when you called we were going to be open until 9, but then the owner decided we are closing at 8 tonight and what he says goes". This is a Friday night in the summer....... Appreciate it! Was only my b day dinner while on vacation. read more

Met our cousins here for lunch. Had gone numerous times before but this was out first in a while. Food was excellent. Went with the blackened salmon and a baked potato. Salmon was delicious though I wish it was a little bit bigger for $25. Potato a was good and fresh bread was also good. Server was wonderful and had a great sense of humor. We will definitely be back again. read more
