    Sweet potato fries
    Ruth B.

    I got a fish basket with sweet potato fries, and a cup of chowder as take out. I think I got six pieces of fish that were about 3" x 3" and so thin they might've been a quarter of an inch thick when looked at from the side including the breading. There's about as much meat as there is breading. I had to look twice to see if I had actually ordered chicken because this did not taste like fish, it did not look like fish and all I could taste was the breading. I ate all of it because I was hungry and it was at least palatable. Super disappointment. The sweet potato fries had a weird funk to them. I don't know if it was the potatoes the oil they were cooked or whatever was sprinkled all over them. I was really craving sweet potato fries, which is why I made the choice I made, and they ended up going in the trash. They are not edible. The chowder was thick and creamy there's a seasoning. I don't know what it is. I've had it before. It doesn't make it bad but it's not a seasoning. I really care for. Overall, the chowder was good once I got past that seasoning. Overall, if you want fish and chips, you would be better off if you were to "trust the Gorton fisherman" and just buy them in the freezer case along with a bag of fries and cook them yourself. Sorry, I cannot recommend.

    Everything went well, This visit was for my 50th Birthday, and it was a blast! the food was great and It was filling.

    Best seafood boil i've had! Most seafood boil places i tried their sauce is so overwhelming and salty. But their sauces are really good, it's spicy n rich. The service was amazing super kind and nice staff. We came in just before it was last call. I had the lobster and the shrimp boil combo. The fries taste like cajun seasoning very good. they provide you with gloves and a bibs to protect you from getting your hands dirty. Great spot you gotta try it out!

    Just bought this but where are all the shrimps? I see lots of corns and sausages. It didn't taste good.

    Came to this place to get dinner, for the first time. Ordered shrimps with corn and a cup of rice. Did not taste good. I thought maybe it's like broiling crab or red lobster. But I wasn't happy with my dinner. Paid $27 for a bag of sausage and little bit of shrimps and corn.

    Unopened clams

    Update: I went back. It was delicious! The clams were open this time... always a plus! The crab was fantastic! The shrimp... YUM! I ordered my combo with the garlic butter, slightly spicy. I will be back real soon!!! I also ordered a lavender lemon drop... if you haven't tried it you need to. You will not regret it! Everything was a great experience! I usually love this restaurant, but I ordered my food to go last night. The combo I got had shrimp and clams. Unfortunately, I had at least 6 clams that didn't open and went to waste. Since I got it to go there wasn't anything I could do about it. My corn wasn't done either.

    Number 3 dynamite spice level Louisiana style with Dungeness crab. Good!
    Jolie M.

    Definitely has improved since our last visit. Our server was great- got everything we ordered and was on top of refills. Friendly and efficient. Good value for what you get!

    The crab was either old or over cooked and I was not able to eat it.
    Malissa R.

    The crab was either old over cooked or both. The rest off the bag was good. The flavor was good. If I am going to pay $ 60 dollars for a crab it should be edible. The waiter was very polite.

    Fried shrimp with fries
    Lupita G.

    Services was good. Ambience was great! This is our first time being here for a birthday. Food was great! Our server was very tentative and helpful placing our orders. Definitely we will be back.

    Thin pieces of fish, I will not order again. There were sweet potato fries that were soggy and flavorless

The stark difference in our second experience was night and day, making this visit truly exceptional. The cozy and romantic aesthetic of the restaurant remains fantastic, and the food and drink menu is still absolutely amazing. This time, however, we had the pleasure of being seated downstairs in Tiffany's section, and she was beyond stellar. Tiffany is the definition of exceptional service. She gave us a complete, helpful rundown of how they structure their tapas menu, offered fantastic recommendations, and was incredibly attentive throughout the evening. We had a great time chatting with her and her professionalism and warmth instantly made our return worthwhile. Her suggestions were perfect--she expertly helped us select a great wine and recommended the black ink pasta, which was a showstopper. Cozy Taberna, when paired with service like Tiffany's, is easily a 5-star restaurant. From now on, we will only return if we can be seated in her section!

This is an order at the counter takeout style place but that was what doing anyways so no worries. Chowder: B-. Fair amount of clams but too much thicker that just took away from the soup as a whole. Disappointed Shellfish platter. I'll rate by the item in the platter Calamari: B+. Nice strips and fried well but no seasoning so just bland Panko shrimp: C. overcooked and no seasoning. Basically tasted like poor frozen box shrimp Oysters: C- Literally could fit on face of a quarter they were so small. And overcooked. I couldn't taste the oyster at all. Overall you can do a lot better

That is the only downside to this place. They have some colorful paint on the wall that was nice. When you come in, you order your food and then go sit down and they will bring it to you. We ended up ordering their 8 piece cod because it's cheaper than ordering 2 four pieces. She was nice enough to separate it for us without us asking. The food came out quick and it was not overly greasy. The cod had a nice batter and had a fresh clean taste. It was still moist and flaky. They were great sized also. As for the fries they came out hot and crisp. Some of the best fries I've had in a long time. The coleslaw was lacking flavor and depth but not a big deal. We got 3 sauces: tartar sauce was very good! The garlic aïoli had great flavor and wasn't overpowering. The ginger lime was very mild and wasn't a good choice in my opinion. They all seemed to be homemade and there were so many choices.
