Saw some great reviewsso, so I had to try it! I love seafood…read more Selection is great..lobster, shrimp, clams, crab, mussels, fish. My hubby and I each ordered a combo,what I loved was the items like shrimp and clams and scallops are by the lb. My husband got 1/2 lb of shrimp & 1/2 lb of scallops....it came with a good portion of potatoes, broccoli and corn. He couldn't finish it all and it was around $23. My combo had shrimp, clams, lobster tail,and snow crab cluster, potatoes, broccoli and corn....we could have added a couple of sides and split either one. The food came out hot, it tasted fresh and the seafood was cooked perfectly! Broccoli and potatoes were cooked beautifully too. We recommend you give it a try!

Service was great....the bartender was friendly and very efficient. I had the seafood chowder to start. While it was very tasty, ( haddock, clams and salmon- (?), I thought it was very skimpy on fish. I ordered a piece of grilled haddock and a side of mushy peas. The haddock was sweet, moist and delivered hot. The mushy peas were excellent with great texture. The menu is small, but everything I've tried over the years has been excellent....they know their fish and prepare it simply and beautifully.

My friend and I met at Freight Yard Brewery for Cousins Lobster Truck event. Truck was in the…read moreparking lot behind the brewery this visit. Short wait time to order 10-15 minutes and short wait time for pick up. The small lobster roll is up to a whopping $26! It was fresh and packed with buttery lobster. The lobster tots were amazing, with a fair amount of lobster for $22. We shared both. The Brewery had cleared out a bit by the time we received food. Plenty of room at the bar and tables to enjoy our food. Huge improvement on two plus hour wait time last visit. But I think Mother Nature dictates the turn out at these events as well.

There was a line waiting for the truck to open. They were set up at a local business in Auburn in…read moretheir parking lot. The truck opened right on time and it didn't take long to place my order. My order took about 10 minutes, 1 hot Connecticut Lobster Roll and 1 Cold Maine lobster Roll. It was a such a beautiful spring day I decided to open the back of my van and eat in the sun! ( There was no place to eat at this business.) The hot buttery Connecticut roll was tender and delicious, it had a nice amount of lobster meat. The other roll, the cold one had noticably less meat. I was disappointed but it was delicious and next time I'll try something else, people were saying that the lobster tacos and lobster quesadillas were very good too.

Cute crab shack ambience, it's a hot spot so order or arrive before the dinner crowd. My first visit was a Saturday around 6 and it was crowded and not a seat to be had! All the seafood platters being served looked amazing, so I knew I was in the right spot! I was greeted as I approached the counter and was assisted with my take out and recommended popular party sack combinations. I ordered #3 which includes a lobster tail, one cluster or 1/2 lb snow crab, 1/2 lb shrimp (I recommend requesting Head Off!) a piece of corn, and 2-3 potatoes. I chose Cajun seasoning and, very hot spice. Warning you best be a very spicy hot lover, it was challenging but loved it! I have already returned for a second time, also #3 sack added extra corn $3 and extra potatoes $3. CrabnGo special seasoning and still extra hot! Delicious not as over the top as Cajun Hot! $47 and change with the added corn and potatoes. $42 and change without. Only one quarter piece of corn first order and two potatoes. Love it! It's going to be dangerous now that I've tried this Cajun Seafood that makes you feel like you are in the Bayou! And the heat that matches!

I've had take out from here before, but eating here is great! One thing I'm particular about with…read moreseafood restaurants is I hate when it smells like rotting old seafood. This place smelled fresh as a daisy. Everything was clean. No bad smells. The staff were friendly and helpful. Drinks and apps came very fast, and dinner wasn't too far behind.

I don't know what time they close, but you need to get there before they close tonight. They offer Peruvian-Japanese fusion cuisine, and when I say the food is full of flavor, I mean nothing was missing. Everything we had was so good. I ordered the chicken chaufa rice with sauce, and it was amazing. We also had plantains, which were just as good. My cousin ordered a steak with noodles, and even though I don't usually eat steak, I tried it and it was cooked perfectly. For dessert, we had something like an apple pie with ice cream, and that was really good too. Service was great. We sat at the bar, and the bartender was attentive and friendly. I also had a mocktail, but I don't remember exactly which one. I also had a ginger beer and water. The atmosphere is one of my favorite parts. It's a great spot for a girls' night or a date night. The energy is just right. I always miss happy hour because of my schedule, but I definitely want to catch it one day. Overall, I have no complaints. This is easily a place I would go back to again and again. Matter of fact, I'm on my way as soon as I post this review ‍

Had reservations for Valentines Day. We were seated promptly as we arrived…read more We had the ceviche special and some sort of potato appetizer to start. I very much enjoyed the ceviche and it was a large portion. My partner seemed to like the potatoes. I had the whole fish special. An interesting experience to say the least. No idea what kind of fish it was but it tasted good. Do not order this trying to look cool or attractive. This is a messy experience- not for a first date. My partner had a vegetarian entree, something with mushrooms. She enjoyed it. We had a total of 3 mocktails as well. Bill was almost 200 dollars. Steep for no booze and one person ordering all vegetarian. Take that into consideration when planning a night out as th drink menu looked great so you're destined to go above that if you booze. The tables were very close to each other and the dining room was loud. Not romantic in my opinion. Food was pretty good, rest of the stuff could use a little work.

I will start this by saying I'm overweight…read more Me and my friend went to get him food Everything was fine, my friend ordered a pound of fish, two fries, and a half pound scallops for himself and of course to share with the animals . ( I don't eat seafood) Then came the issue. The man behind the counter looked at me and then went to the cooler grabbed the filet of fish and showed my friend that it was just one piece of fish. He proceeded to ask my friend if he was sure that was enough. I didn't think anything of it at first I even said hey that's a big piece of fish. Then my friend decided a few minutes later he did want an extra piece and another fry. So I let the man know so he could cook it Then it was finally ready and to cash out when I started to hear the man and another customer talking and I could tell it was based on the fact of how much food and fish we got. The customer proceeds to tell the man behind the counter that he thinks one piece of fish is good for 2 people it's a pretty big piece of fish. Then the man behind the counter proceeded to check us out but responds with yeah usually it is but when your... And he looks at me and then the guy he was talking too. ( He was signaling my weight, b/c I am a bigger girl) then laughs a little. Me and my friend walk away he looks at me again and then says something in another language I'm guessing the word for fat because they look at me one last time and laugh. Yeah that was an experience. And not a good one. You are a worker at a food establishment I'm sure I'm not the only overweight person who visits it. So if you are talking about me like that then I'm sure others are talked about as well and that's disgusting and disrespectful. Especially when we are paying customers. Not to mention it's not cheap. I went to the car and cried because I wasn't expecting that to happen, my friend didn't realize it happened but when I told him he was very upset. I'm not even eating the food but even if I was why does it matter how much we get. We went there to get some food and have a good night. Not be judged and feel like total crap after leaving out the door. So please be aware if you do go to that fish cove because they are judgemental and will talk about you in front of everyone and to other customers. They are not a nice group of people. If you read my rant thank you I appreciate it! I usually don't post stuff like this but this really got to me and nobody I mean nobody deserves to feel the way they made me feel.

Location was a challenge to find as e ended up at Daniella's steakhouse down the road…read more Food was overall pretty good and the atmosphere is unique. We had the greens and scallops for an appetizer, for entrees I had the king cut prime rib and others had the lobster roll. Service was pretty decent overall, seating was perhaps the only negative as it was almost set in a banquet hall. I'd give it 4.5/5 Piggybacking off some lower star reviews I didn't see ANY issues with portion sizes or quality. Crab sauce had a lot of crab in it and the king cut prime rib was massive, a tiny bit fattier for my liking but that's how prime rib comes sometimes. Very flavorful meals and even though I put down as much food as I could we still had plenty of leftovers!
