If there were a Hall of Fame for small fried seafood joints that never miss, Al's Seafood would…read morealready have a plaque, a laminated menu, and a line out the door - they already have a chalk menu, and during the summer, a wait for a table so we're almost there! This place is absurdly consistent. The portions are always generous, the quality is never caught lacking, and the dining room is spotless in that reassuring someone actually cares way. The staff (and it's always the same people that are there, which is cool in itself that there's no noticeable turnover in the staff) is friendly without being fake about it... efficient, pleasant, and clearly proud of what they're serving from fryers behind the soda fountains. Let's talk food, because wow. That's why you're reading this. The fried shrimp are so good that my wife (who does not like seafood) actively loves them. That alone should be printed on the menu. I've only known her to eat fried shrimp when the breading weighs more than the shrimp itself (which is not the case here). The tartar sauce is the best in North America. It's my crack. If I drank it through a straw (a bit too thick), that straw would be called a crack pipe. I literally smile writing about this tartar sauce. I will not be taking questions at this time. The "regular" fries are exactly what fries should be: crisp, fluffy, salty perfection. And the onion rings? Peak "fried seafood place" onion rings... golden, crunchy, and unapologetically doing their job, not tempura style, but old school Weathervane "fried seafood style" onion rings that you can sub in instead of fries on plates/boats for a small upcharge. Even the bathrooms are clean, which sounds like a throwaway detail until you realize how rare that is and how much it says about the place. We love it so much that we'll happily drive 40 minutes each way to eat there - in winter - because that's what you do when a place never lets you down. And despite the sign saying Al's Seafood, we tell everyone it's called "Big Al's Seafood" Not because that's the name, but because that's the energy this place has... It's not trendy. It's not trying to reinvent anything. It's just awesome, every single time and honestly, that's harder to pull off than any gimmick. Signing off... keep it up, Big Al.

So good and look at those claws! So good and it's as good as it gets!! Great Gift Idea: Although we did not make the purchase, I can't comment on customer service etc. There are simple cooking instructions included. I can say that it is a great gift to receive. Quite a surprise and a great exotic gift for those who don't live on the east coast. The fact that they can make it all the way to Hawaii means that they are shipped quickly and efficiently.

BUT luckily for us they had more lobsters around back. We bought hard shell live lobsters for $9-something per pound and they were roughly 1.4 - 1.6lbs. New shell lobsters are $1/lb less. I saw on their menu that they do meals too with a 24hr notice. Anyway took them home and made some garlic lobster and everyone thoroughly enjoyed.

The man working at the counter was quiet and didn't seem to want to engage in any conversation so I paid and left. The steamers and cod were really good but nothing spectacular. Sadly, the steamers and cod that I picked up at Market Basket later in the week tasted better and were less expensive. Overall, decent but not a place I would go out of my way for.

The shrimp cocktail was amazing and if I was so full was going to order more. The prices were great. Now that they are located right in Hampton and I don't have to wait for festival.

damn good oysters!…read more we've been wanting to have oysters lately and im so glad i was able to find this shack! its a small place with limited seating but the oysters are the freshest you can find! we got a dozen and got 4 of each for: Canada, Swell, Massachusetts and Maine.

I think we couldve finished another dozen more lol anyway, had a really delicious "meal" and hope we can drive by this area someday again soon!
