3 of us had lunch around noon, plenty of seating available…read more FOOD: Very good, fresh. The fish and chips were flaky, fries crispy and the cole slaw is savory. The seafood casserole was decadent with plenty of scallops and shrimp. SERVICE: Nina was excellent. Ensured we had everything we needed, patient with an elderly party member and took photos which came out really nice! BAR: The Bloody Mary had just the right amount of mix and alcohol and was loaded with fresh garnish - 3 jumbo olives, a shrimp and lemon and lime wedges. ATMOSPHERE: It was chilly as we arrived (March), warmed up a bit as more patrons entered. Of course, it does have the aroma of a fish restaurant. Parking is in the back, the entrance is before the restaurant. We missed it the first time around as the parking sandwich board sign was behind the white picket fence. A little inconvenient as we had to then go all the way around the center for a second time. I suspect if the sidewalk was shoveled, the sign would be out there and more visible. There is a parking sign with an arrow on the building, but it is in front of the restaurant walkway entrance, so by the time you see it you likely passed the parking lot entrance.

No frills, just great soup and other offerings at a reasonable price…read more Service is usually fast and courteous. Ambiance? It's a side street in Lowell and it's all takeaway. On a nice day you can utilize the outdoor tables. But that soup.......worth a trip for lunch. And it's right off of 495. I hear the lobster roll is pretty good, as well.

The roll was absolutely loaded with meat and they even made a tiny one for my toddler. Great time…read moreand so delicious. We got one hot and one cold. Love getting a lobster roll that actually lets the meat do the talking while still being well lit together and dressed.

At first glance, IV Seasons looks like a bar where everybody has known everybody else for years…read more That doesn't mean they won't welcome you in, though, and it's worth going because the food is top-notch. I brought my parents who were in from out-of-town, and we shared the Portuguese appetizer (sausage, pork, cheese and olives) and some red wine. Those were good, but the seafood entrees were amazing. I got the seafood stew, my dad got the Mariscata, and my mom got baked haddock. They also have a good selection of non-seafood items, and a specials board with some other interesting options. I'm not a fan of squid so I thought I'd have to pick it out of the seafood stew, but they make everything to order, so they just made mine with more of everything else, which was great. My parents liked theirs, but I think my dad was secretly jealous that he didn't get the stew too :) Our waiter, Nick, whose family owns the place, was basically serving the entire restaurant all by himself. Granted, it's a small place, and about half of it is taken up by the bar, but it was still impressive. He was running around the whole time, and we didn't have to wait all that long for anything, but he still had time to give us good food and drink recommendations. When I said I'd have to bring my wife back sometime, he gave me a takeout menu so she could find something she liked before we even came in (she's allergic to shellfish, so that narrows things down a bit for her). Even with all that fancy food, it wasn't even all that expensive. I've had seafood stew at other places that was about the same size and similar ingredients and it cost twice as much. I'm looking forward to coming back and trying something else.
