    You can not go wrong with legal seafood. We have been coming here for years. The food is consistent on the service is always pleasant and consistent as well. Fish tacos is one of my favorites although I would modify the recipe a little bit. Baked haddock is always good as well. Fish and chips can be better. It is a family friendly place. Try to avoid coming during the lunch rushed hour because parking would be difficult. Overall it is a good place to keep coming back to.

    "Now it's a legal matter, baby You got me on the run" (The Who) The Dedham location of the Legal Seafoods chain is in the center of the impressive Legacy Place shopping center. The dining room was quite large with a bar in the center of the room. We had a party of four for lunch -our two grandkids, my wife and myself. Shortly after we were seated, we had the pleasure of meeting Madison -our fantastic server. She was as pleasant and attentive as anyone, but what made her stand out was the way she interacted with our young lunch guests. She was really amazing. Our grandkids were busy working on their paper placemat crossword puzzles when Madison brought over four complimentary rolls and butter. They disappeared pretty fast. The Children's Menu was a good deal, with a choice of an appetizer (fruit cup, popcorn, or carrot sticks), a main (burger, chicken sandwich, grilled cheese, or a pasta), a grilled entrée (salmon, beef, chicken), a fried entrée (fish sticks, chicken fingers, popcorn shrimp) and a choice of two sides (veggies, fruit, fries, rice, slaw, or applesauce). Those Kiddie Meals rock with a ton of food and choices for $9-$12. Our youngsters went with the popcorn shrimp and a Mac and Cheese, and both were gobbled up. What's hysterical is that popcorn is offered as an appetizer. And the popcorn shrimp is served in a popcorn container with (what else?) Popcorn! My wife and I went to the Lunch Special Menu and found some great values. For $16-$25, you can get a petit sandwich, cup of clam chowder or lobster bisque, fries, and coleslaw. Our lunches were excellent. We ordered a Petit Lobster roll with clam chowder ($25) and a Petit Shrimp Salad Roll with Lobster Bisque ($18). Both of the soups were served piping hot and loaded with seafood. The sandwiches were served on a warm griddled brioche roll and also had a very generous serving of shrimp and lobster. Our lunches were good values, the pricing was fair, Madison was fantastic, and our grandkids had a blast. Easy Five Stars for our stellar consumer experience.

    I love legal sea foods and have been coming here for a long time. Their clam chowder is amazing. I got the grain bowl this day which I really liked. I don't think you can go wrong with anything on the menu. Solid food, always consistent. Good spot for large groups. Servers are very friendly.

    I am amazed by their freshness of their seafood and side dishes. Very surprised that they only have below 4 on rating. The oysters we have was one of the freshest that I ever had on East coast. The lobster roll was so good and lobster were in large chunks. Side dishes were really good too, roasted mushrooms were not oily like many other restaurants, quinoa was pretty flavorful with nuts and vegetables. The service in this location was very good, our servers were very attentive. The parking was very crowded even at 4pm on a Saturday afternoon. However, the restaurant has a good vibe of lovely blueish lighting and Bar sits in the middle of the restaurant, and with good number of TV screens. ***Went back again today for a to go order, lobster roll is also very delicious when enjoyed at my hotel room. Fish and Chips was so impressively delicious (very light batter and wow on how fresh the fish was). Unfortunately, the restaurant staff forgot about upgraded side dishes of roasted mushrooms and quinoa; I got fries and coleslaw

    We came on a work trip for dinner. The seafood was amazing. The crab cake was moist and flaky. The bang bang cauliflower was perfectly crispy with a slight kick. Our server was attentive and spunky. The adjustable table was neat. It gave us plenty of room as there were 6 of us.

    Came here for a birthday dinner. We made a reservation and got your table quickly. However it took them a long time for us to even get water. Food did take a long take to come out as well. The crab cake was tasty and paired nicely with the sauce and salad. I did wish the plating was a bit nicer for this dish. I got the crispy fish sandwich and it did come a bit soggy. The fries were delicious and the fish itself was good. The ambiance was good and had great music playing.

    I'm not one to eat seafood as often as I can, instead I treat it like a deserved or delicacy meal. You really can never go wrong eating at (most) Legals. This particular Legal is great and I branched out from my typical meal and had: Sea Scallops (so good, recommended forsure) Lobster Bisque (good)

    Exceptional meal here. The scallops were very good! Our server was attentive and the cocktails were on point!

    New England Clam Chowder and  fresh bread

    While waiting for my Apple Genuis appointment, I went in here for a quick bite. The last time I was in a Legal seafood was years ago. I used to like them, but then they started to decline in quality of food (at least in RI). But this was in MA and I was hungry. The bar had a few people at it, and it was nice and cool after being outside. I sat at the bar and ordered a cup of New England Clam Chowder. $8.50 for a cup was high, but it was really pretty good. There were LOTS of chopped clams, and the potatoes were cooked through (a big pet peeve of mine.) The flavor was treally good . The only negative was there was some clam grit in it :( The bartender couldn't have been more pleasant, and quickly took my order. He was back in 10 minutes with my cup of chowder and a plate with 2 warm rolls and butter. How nice! I was happy I went. The prices are very high here - as they are in every Legal C food location. The fish and chips looked way overcooked. Greggs looks way tastier! But for $28.00, I would have sent it back. The 1/2 lb lobster roll was in a hot dog bun and came with coleslaw and french fries. But for $42.00 ....... it was not impressive. If I wanted to be impressed with lobster salad, I would to to Twin Oaks in RI. 2 stuffies were $16.00. Whoa! So, I enjoyed the chowder, but living in New England and being so close to the water, there are many other restaurants that have better food at better prices.

    The chowder was good and the house dressing is delicious. The ceasar dressing was very good as well. I really think our waitress Joanne judge a book by the cover some businesses should really do a better job screening their waitresses and waiters. The food was good but the service we received wasn't the greatest at all. The restaurant is very comfortable and laid back. Instead of the waitress explain the sparkling water was a big bottle she allowed us to order 2 bottles which was ridiculous. Who drinks this much with a meal?

A long line wound it's way around the non-perishable food displays. The employees looked a bit frazzled- the line was mostly new customers (like me) who saw the coverage.

I ordered the Italian sub without veggies, a pint of olives and meatballs with cheese and bread. Everything was delicious. Sandwich was excellent-meatballs were amazing. I would call ahead of order online in the future- and let some time pass as it will likely be busy like this for awhile. They use their space well. Lots of free parking.

Brought them home expecting authentic homemade Italian meatballs and instead got something that tasted like a mass produced frozen food service product. The texture was spongy, oddly uniform, and completely lacking the flavor and character of real homemade meatballs. Honestly, they reminded me of the kind of reheated catering tray meatballs you get at low end buffets or grocery store prepared food sections. What made it worse was the attitude. The owner came across as rude and dismissive when customers raised concerns, and judging by many of the other reviews, that does not seem uncommon. For a place with this kind of reputation, the quality was shockingly underwhelming. I genuinely do not understand the hype.
