    Clam stew
    Roberto B.

    Where do I begin with this place. As my wife said it "this was exactly what I was hoping for to start our vacation in Cape Cod" The oysters were delicious the focaccia with butter and prosciutto added refreshed the pallet and the star of the show the clam stew. I was a bit hesitant about ordering the stew but I'm so glad I did. The consistency of the broth and the heartiness of the beans and bacon pairs well with the clams. If you are ever in Wellfleet or passing by I suggest stopping here for some good food. Our server was friendly and informative about the menu. The outdoor ambiance was relaxing with the musicians playing tunes.

    A must stop every year, though we missed 2024. First time with the new ownership and, as with all previous visits, The Wicked Oyster delivers. Wellfleet Oysters are probably our Worldwide favorites, the Day Boat Scallop dish and the Pan Seared Sole were excellent!!! The only thing I could say was not our taste was the music playlist. EDM/Electronica probably not the best choice.

    New owners - new menu. The Wicked Oyster was sold earlier this year. It looks like the restaurant got a new coat of paint and a new menu. The cocktails are ambitious and tasty. The menu is smaller, but most plates feature local seafood with a creative presentation. The Lobster Gnocchi is delicious. I would have given the meal 5 stars but the service was understaffed. It took 20 minutes for the server to collect my credit card and process the card after presenting the check.

    Lemon Risotto with shrimp
    Steven C.

    Overall not a bad experience, I came up from DC and must say the food was good for coming in after 9 am with a party of 9. The lazy lobster was good although the gnocchi was a bit doughy and dense. The clam chowder was a bit loose and clams were not large, I was looking for a bit more flavor but the consistency was on point. The crab cake was good and full of crab meat but the shrimp egg rolls were a bit thick. The star if the show was the lemon risotto and shrimp. Really good! I'd come back to see if an earlier meal is better.

    Gross.

    Great mainstay of Wellfleet. Friendly service, delicious local fare, and my tap IPA was icy cold! A definite visit when in town.

    The oysters were terrible. Although we told the waiter, he did not "no charge" them. The drinks were also poorly made.

    Just purchased a take out meal from Caroline's in Eastham MA. Whole Belly clams were fresh and…read moretasty, way more French fries than clams (not unusual for most take out seafood restaurants in the area) cocktails were tasty while we waited for our takeout order, service was excellent, promp and timely. Disappointed that they don't offer live music and happy hour anymore. Still a great spot for fresh seafood in Eastham, but will look for other options in the area that have live music and happy hour options. Happy Summer

    A 4.5 star review, rounded up because the owner was so kind in helping us find the perfect table…read more We showed up at Caroline's as a referral from Connor at our hotel, the Eagle Wing inn. There are multiple different seating options, everything from an outdoor patio to high top bar seats, tables, and the indoor booth seating which is what we selected. The dining room is comfortable, and with open windows it provided a nice breath of fresh air. We started with the seafood sampler, a wonderful combination of fresh and delicious shellfish (clams, oysters, shrimp and a lobster tail). We then split appetizers instead of entrees, having the tuna tartare and the Chatham mussels, both of which were excellent. There was some minor room for improvement - after we were done with our seafood sampler, we sat for about 10 minutes while our server Danielle seemed to be in an enthusiastic conversation with Caroline out in front of the restaurant. It provided for some interesting dinner theater, but with so many other employees standing around, it probably would have been an ideal opportunity for somebody else to chip in and take over. Also, the mussels came in a wonderful wine / garlic sauce - some bread would have been a thoughtful addition to soak up that wonderful broth. Fortunately the quality of the food and the vibe of the restaurant more than compensated for a couple of service issues - we visited in late May, so hopefully by the time this restaurant hits the busy season, they'll have the issues worked out. Overall, I would certainly not hold back from referring this restaurant.
