On a warm Sunday afternoon, the patio with live music was perfect. We didn't order full meals, but the huge soft pretzel, Bob's buffalo wings, and ice cold beer couldn't have been better. Friendly and efficient service... Reading the negative reviews I wondered if I was at the same place? read more

Wife's entree was very cold. Waitress didn't think it was a problem. She said that she brought it out on time and that's it. No apology or offer to fire a new one. This is the 2nd time the food was hit AND miss but at least the last time the waitress was really good. This is our last visit ever. read more

We were really disappointed with our meal, especially for the price. In total, we spent $77 for the fried clams, a Caesar salad, and two stuffed quahogs. The $35 fried clam plate came with fries and about 7-8 full-belly clams. At that price, it comes out to roughly $4.40 to $5.00 per clam. For comparison, a dozen oysters at many places would be cheaper per piece, which makes this feel really hard to justify, especially because the clams were soggy and not crisp. The stuffed quahogs were also disappointing. They weren't baked in shells and were served on pieces of lettuce, which felt odd. They were very greasy and soggy. The Caesar salad was basically bagged romaine with a few croutons and barely any dressing, and even the coleslaw had very little flavor. To be fair, we did call and mention that the fried clams were unacceptable, and the staff was accommodating and refunded the clam plate, which we appreciated. But they only refunded the clams, and overall, for a $77 meal, the quality just wasn't there. We rarely complain, but this meal was really disappointing. read more

Went there with several friends for lunch and we all were very disappointed with our meals. It was obviously frozen pre made scallops every scallop was exactly the same size and the advertised fresh seafood. For close to $40 for a plate you got 7 scallops and a handful of fries. Shrimp plate was no better and the fisherman platter was also sup par. Avoid this place they do not serve fresh seafood you can go to the market and get the same quality in the frozen food aisle. read more

A hidden gem! Great service, great food and fair prices. Go there, please! Come early, they get busy.

i think any time a place has merchandise the second you walk up it should be a little bit of a red flag that it is a tourist trap and it made me want to turn around, but it was late and we needed some grub. great outdoor seating area. this seems more of a local spot and less of a show stopping seafood spot. fishermans platter offered more than expected but i wasn't as impressed as i thought i would be - still, chowed this down within 30 minutes. service was quick and kind and happy to seat us. good spot - maybe need fryer oil changed? read more

Food and drinks. Both not worth the money. Service was mediocre at best. Was looking for an out of way local place. Would not return.

Love the location, particularly the outside dining space. Great menu, choices for the whole family. We are Repeat customers, sometimes there is inconsistent quality in the fried food, but otherwise a reliable good, relaxing meal in a great location. read more

As ubiquitous as the beaches, lobster rolls define Cape Cod. The toasted buns, the heaping mound of lobster meat, the tang of the cole slaw. Staying in North Truro, having Captain's Choice nearby meant I didn't have to battle summer traffic on Rt.6. My order was placed and ready for pick-up in 5 minutes. The lobster roll hit the spot --- pure comfort and all was right in the world once more. Their homemade chips offer something unique and tasty,though unfortunately I found them a little overdone. Lots of indoor and outdoor seating, friendly and efficient service, easy parking, and a sure bet for your seafood hankerings. read more

Great food. A bit pricey for the offerings but we still go. Usually we get take out. Definitely recommend. One recommendation is they invest in some better chairs for their table. The folding chairs just don't allow one to sit properly at the table and the plastic ones are just uncomfortable. read more

One of the best bowls of clam chowda I have ever had. I don't know what spices they put in their broth, but it was so delicious and lots of clams and potatoes, just a great bowl of deliciousness. My only concern was I thought they could have been a little more generous on the clams with bellies for the prices they charge. read more

Fried clam plate was very small and extremely pricey. Batter was too heavy for the clams. read more

Horrible food and service. Baked stuff shrimp with baby shrimp. No one could eat their meals. RUN from this place. Terrible waitress. Never ever!! read more

Go, you will not be disappointed! Sorry we didn't return for the full belly clams. Next yr, the good Lord willing. It's a fun, laid back place. Plus, nice workers! Try a bloody Mary - wow! read more

Food is very geriatric and lacks seasoning. The place is busy and the staff well meaning. We would not return

First time here. Extensive menu with fried and grilled seafood and fish options, some fun appetizers like tuna sashimi and stuffed quahog. Several types of fish tacos and salads a bonus. And for the landlubbers, fried chicken and ribs. Super casual and dog friendly (they even have a few items in the menu just for your pup) makes this another gem in Truro. read more

Nicely tucked away place in cape cod. The food is well prepared and served in a relatively short period of time. Outdoor seating area is well organized. Plenty of parking space. Happy to go back again. read more

Before I get going, a strong 4. I will have to admit, somewhere within the period when I first pulled up and had my water served to me in a plastic cup I was like uh oh. however their ceasar salad, stuffed shrimp and lobster roll are pretty good. This place has really great lobster, very fresh. Give them a try. read more

One of the best places for a lobster roll in North Truro. Can get busy there in the summer but they handle the crowds well. Waitresses and staff are always nice and friendly. read more

Was driving back down the cape and wanted a lobster roll and that was what Captain's Choice was advertising, so we stopped and ate our lobster roll. It was definitely worth the stop. The service was really friendly and unlike a lot of east coast restaraunts, they continued to fill up our soda and water. The lobster roll was fresh and had great flavor. Also, I really liked the coleslaw, which isn't too surprising, give that I am a big slaw fan. The chowda was good too. Just overall everything that we got on the menu was great. So it is worth the time to go. read more

Our new favorite spot. Casual,comfortable, great fresh food and drinks, amazing friendly service...and, they honestly adored our dog! Truly dog friendly as opposed to promoting being dog friendly but really being barely dog tolerant. read more

Food was fine, however the chefs could tone down on the sourness of the calamari salad. What really led me to write this review was the extreme rudeness of our server. From the beginning when she was taking our orders, she was very curt and seemed annoyed at our questions. No "Hi, how are you, what can I get for you guys?" Nothing like that. Just plain "what do you want for drinks?" with a dead stare. I realized afterwards that she really did not want to serve us in the first place. We ordered a fish taco, a lobster taco, and a salad. When the food arrived, we saw that she only brought the fish taco and the salad, so we asked if the lobster taco was on the way. She responded in a very condescending way, saying that we never ordered that in the beginning (we did). We were all thinking wtf, but whatever, I guess she had a long day... After the meal, my mother wanted to finish the beer that we ordered outside, since customers were beginning to wait in line. As we were walking out, the same server saw me and snatched the plastic cup from my hand, saying "you can't take that outside" and briskly walked back in the restaurant. It wasn't a "hi, I'm sorry, but the beer isn't allowed outside the premise." I was left there standing and thinking wtf. I understand we should have known better about taking our drink out, but that is NO WAY to treat a customer. We didn't get her name, but she was tall, blond, old, and wrinkly. And very bitchy. read more

Came here for a late lunch. We ordered clam chowder, salmon taco and scallops taco. The salmon taco is delicious. Would recommend! There are some outside seating available, as well as two tables inside. Parking is easy. read more

The 4 stars is because we love the owners But- The food has really gone downhill Very discerner from precious years The atmosphere is the same but the quality of the food has really yanked Greasy fish, terrible quahog and no subs-which were amazing! Prices are decent for what you get... Idk Maybe we will try again but all 4 times this season was blah read more

Nothing special. Scallops were frozen not fresh Wouldn't go back. Service was great though.

Food is alright. We had a very unfriendly server who seemed downright angry the whole time she was serving us. We are absolutely disgusted with the way she behaved, and she has ruined the whole experience for us. For reference, she was a tall white lady who looked to be in her forties or fifties. Either fire her or train her better. read more

Well the food tastes good but be aware, I paid $35 dollars for scallops and clams. I got 4 scallops and maybe 10 clams. Seems a bit expensive. I don't think I'll be back even tho I'm here every summer. read more

Great food in a relaxed setting. You order at the counter, pick any table you want and they bring out your food to you. I had the traditional lobster roll and a caesar salad and I ate every bite! read more

My friends and I just had dinner here and it was DELISH! I had a really yummy burger, one friend had scallop tacos, and the other had fish and chips. We all really enjoyed the food as well as the eclectic atmosphere. Plus, OMG, homemade potato chips!!! We took one of each kind of cookie back to our rental for later. They will make a terrific accompaniment to drinks and a game of "Cards Against Humanity." read more

Friendly place. Great atmosphere and good food! Had take out two nights. Salads and entrees. The cookies are outstanding!

We recently ate here and got the captains platter and it was not good. The scallops stunk real bad and were way to salty they didn't have that light sweet taste fresh scallops are supposed to have the clams where the same they were smelly and to salty. Everything else on the platter was fine not good the fish was dry. The best item was definitely the grilled cheese and chili. If a seafood restaurants best food isn't seafood that says something. Don't eat here spend your hard earned dollar somewhere else. read more

Best chicken tenders ever yum thank you so much!!! Great service, especially Jenny. I will definitely comeback here. read more

The food is consistently fresh, flavorful and good here. Way better than a run of the mill friend clam place.

Unpretentious environment. Mostly outdoor seating. Dog friendly. Excellent staff and a regular crowd. Straight-forward dishes to fit any mood from hot dogs, burgers, tacos and lobster rolls to tuna sashimi and oysters and stuffed qyahog and entrees and nightly specials (which aren't as satisfying as the more basic fare). Your fancy friends might further be put off by plastic baskets and water glasses but there are enough fussier places in Ptown to fit that bill. Not terribly less expensive than other eateries but won't break the bank either. read more

Stumbled in here and so happy that we did. Great COVID safety measures. Heads up that they do ask customers to wear a mask when talking to servers, which seems totally reasonable to me, but I could see someone getting upset about it... We ordered wings and oysters, plus a few beers. The food was a great. Service was a little iffy, we had a friendly person and then a not-so-friendly. It was really busy though, so we understood. Definitely would go back! read more

Great service, atmosphere and seafood - it's a neighborhood gem ! The owners are there every night and are always friendly and accommodating

New season begins- stopped here based on Yelp reviews. Scallop roll had 4 scallops - 9 dollars Clam strip plate was 16. Mostly fries but strips were good Extra order of fries was a waste. Bland and nothing special at all. Canned beers 4.50 each Overall ok. Not great or worth a special trip read more
