    Fried fish sandwich clam chowder and clam cakes
    Daniel V.

    Food was mediocre but for the price and the view not a bad stop. The fried fish sandwich was fresh. The "creamy" clam chowder from the #1 on the menu was quite watered down and mostly potato bits, definitely wouldn't order that. But the clam cakes were tasty, not very clammy but good breading. The cashier who took our order wasn't very friendly and our food took quite a while, though it did get pretty busy. That porta potty was a disaster, but we did go towards the end of the day.

    Creamy chowder. Mostly potatoes and not creamy at all.

    Disappointed. Husband ordered clear chowder, clam cakes, and a stuffed quahog. The flavor of the chowder was good, but it was mostly potatoes. Same with the clam cakes. He was struggling to find clam pieces. Stuffie was good, not the best he's had, but fine. I ordered the large fried clams and creamy chowder. The clams were good, could have used a touch of salt. The chowder was not creamy. We actually had to look very closely to know that they weren't both clear. My chowder looked as if they took the clear chowder and mixed in about a tablespoon of milk after it was made. Again mostly potatoes, very few clams and they were tiny. I didn't finish it. I feel like Flo's is relying on their reputation as an awesome clam shack, not putting in the effort to remain really good. But sitting outside in mid September on a beautiful day looking at the water still made for a nice outing despite the mediocre food.

    Continuing with searching for the best clam cake. Service was straight forward, walk up to the counter and they take your order. Clam cakes were good in size but lacked clam pieces. The chowda had lots of potatoes and not enough clams, a nice smokey flavor but it was a little watery.

    I went to a restaurant on October 19, 2023, and was pleasantly surprised by how great it was. The fried seafood I ordered was delicious, especially the dipping sauce which was heavenly. The view from the restaurant was absolutely stunning. Additionally, the service I received was very nice. Even on another day that's i've visited the staff still remembered me was so impressive. Now I'm back in Honolulu, Hawaii, and still thinking about the taste and my experience there. I wish you had dipping sauce for sale. Can't wait to go back.

    Very over cooked Cod and very little French fries. This is an $18 fish and chips platter ‍
    Honest T.

    First off, I have an extensive cooking background. All of my reviews are as honest as it gets. I might be upset at times and I might be as happy as can be at times because of the experience but they're non biased and dead on accurate. I've eaten here for decades. My sister wanted to take me out to lunch (3rd of July) because she had the day off. She wanted Fish and Chips and told me to pick the place. I picked Flo's drive in as opposed to Flo's clam shack because it's more quaint. Both are always super fresh. We ordered 2 Fish and Chips platters and a dozen Clam Cakes because their Clam Cakes are awesome and we'd have a few for later. I'm not sure if it was a new cook but the fish and Clam Cakes were pretty over cooked. The Clam Cakes were at minimum a half hour old and I noticed they have gotten considerably smaller as well. The French fry portion although very hot and tasty was the smallest I've ever seen in a fish and chips dinner. Nothing like what I've gotten my entire life here. All of that's a big no no. Why in the world would they mess with quite literally a world famous Clam Cake is waaay beyond me. The Clam Cakes are Flo's bread and butter. Its 16 bucks for a dozen as it is. Make them like they were. We're more than paying for that. Not a deflated version of it. There's very little clams in those cakes in general so there's no excuse. Not only that, they should be piping hot, not just kinda warm. When battered fish is over cooked the batter becomes a hard shell. It's a little tough to eat. You have to crunch through it or pick out the Cod. The Clams on the cakes get rock hard and really burnt too. Flo's has been here almost 100 years, they know better than to put food like that out. I didn't say anything during lunch because I didn't want to ruin anything. We were having an awesome time. I wanted to though. It was a $55 lunch and my sister paid for it based on my suggestion. For that kind of money it better be spot on. For the record it still tasted good. It was just a bit of a chore to eat. That's why I still gave 3 stars. Common Flo's! You can do a lot better than this. I know it for a fact. My only edit was captioning the pictures.

    Clam Strip Roll - YUMMY!
    Jennifer M.

    So here we are again with having to drop the stars.... came here this past weekend and it was just ok. I had the fried clam roll and it was pretty good, but unfortunately my husband had the fried oyster roll and he said it was totally disgusting. Massive fried oysters that were loaded with grease to the extent that it was just dripping off his fingers!! He said they were mushy and tasted awful!! We also had a stuffed quahog and that too was disgusting. We each took one bite of it and that was it. Nasty!

    We tried clam cakes based on some reviews. We tossed 4 of the six. They were tasteless. Based on that we wouldn't try this place again

Unfortunately, I was met with an absolutely atrocious attitude from the young lady who served me today. I asked for two whole filets of Arctic Char from the back cooler instead of the two in the front case. Why? Well, the real answer is that it doesn't matter why...I'm the customer paying nearly $60 for fish and if that's what I want, then the correct answer is a smile and a "no problem, let me go get that for you!" Instead, what I got was a look of utter contempt and an "I mean, what's the difference?" sarcastic reply with one palm raised up to emphasize just how ridiculous my request was. When she returned with the fish, I said "just FYI, all that should matter is that I'm the customer (paying top dollar for a premium product), maybe I'm just a bit OCD." Her response, again with that famous Gen-Z contempt, was "I mean, there's no difference, we just brought it (the fish in the case) out, but anyways, I got you your fish." She just didn't get it. The owner overheard everything and chimed in "all of our fish is fresh here, you don't need to worry about that." Yeah, I know that it's a good product, it's why I shop here, but if my unique brain feels better about having it brought out from the back cooler, why should that merit even a drop of bad attitude?! I told the owner, "I just shouldn't have to explain myself," he retorted "you didn't" and I told him "no, actually I did." So basically, I went in looking forward to a nice experience and left feeling really irritated. Sometimes when I'm passing through Westport, I stop by Westport Lobster Company. I always ask for my fish from the back...and all that I ever get is a smile and a "sure, no problem, let me get that for you." I prefer to spend money in my own town, but I'm not going back to this place and neither is my wife...We don't need to be rewarding rudeness with our hard-earned dollars.

It's consistently very good, even though we often trek from our hometown to Bristol, Newport, or Providence for dining. Portsmouth has slim pickings when it comes to quality restaurants--15 Point and Fieldstone's only come to mind. Rocco's used to be on that list, but new ownership makes it a bit of a question mark right now. This place always delivers: a solid menu with a strong emphasis on seafood, a long cocktail list with prices still reasonable for the area ($12-$14), and reliably good service. Portions are generous and the food is consistently well prepared. We split the bacon-wrapped scallops to start, then had duck and a seafood pasta for entrées--both excellent. Highly recommended. And when the weather cooperates, the outdoor dining right on the water is a real bonus.
