We had a really large party for our grandpa's 90th birthday and Moby Dick's was so fantastic! They gave us our own section outside and the servers came out to take our orders. They did everything they could to ensure that we had a wonderful experience. The food was excellent and the BYOB was much appreciated. I highly recommend Moby Dick's! read more

Been to Moby Dick's many times over the years including the past two years under Covid rules. The wait staff is always friendly and helpful, the owner Todd is always engaging and the food is always top notch. The BYOB model is fantastic since it allows you to bring your preferred beverage and you don't pay a ridiculous price. In addition, seeing guests sharing their cooler contents with others unaware of the BYOB tradition reaffirms our affinity towards one another. Road side seafood at its best! Highly recommend read more

my family and i went here for the 4th and i'm so glad we did because it really made the evening special. we ordered the specials - fried pickles and mussels in garlic wine broth - as well as the shrimp and scallop platters, fish sandwich, chowder and strawberry shortcake for dessert. everything was DELICIOUS but the mussels and shortcake were the real standouts. but what really sets this place apart from every other seafood restaurant on the cape is how above and beyond the staff go to make sure you're happy and having a great experience. we were given beads and flags while we waited which was super fun. everyone was so genuinely kind, the service was super quick despite the crowds, and all our requests were met instantly. the owners even came out to chat with us. in general, the ambience was also great. we all left smiling and already planning our next visit! read more

Moby Dick's - fried pickles, mussels in a garlic wine broth, and the american flags we were given! delicious and adorable. - Seafood Near Me - Wellfleet, Massachusetts

So I saw quite a few cars here driving by. Decided to stop and give it a go. You can sit inside and outside. We were inside. I dont know why all these places dont put more fans. It was stifling. Sit outside if its hot and there is room. Everyone there was really nice. We both got 2lb Lobsters. They were cooked perfectly and were delicious. Check out the gift shop. Its actually quite nice with really nice merchandise. Id say stop even if you do not eat there. read more

If you are planing to visit the Outer Cape don't miss the chance too treat your family and friends to a visit too a Cape Cod Land Mark! Moby Dick's. Moby Dick's is beginning there 41st season of incredible food and service. We were a group of 5 tonight with 4 of us visiting from Ft Lauderdale, FL. We mentioned to Todd the proud owner of Moby's when he stopped by our table to check on our food and service, " How is the Key Lime Pie ?" He told us he believed it was better then ours from Florida. Yes we tried the Key Lime Pie and 3 other fabulous deserts to share, I have to say I loved all the deserts but truly, the Key Lime Pie was hands down my favorite. All of the fresh and beautify prepared sea food was pure perfection! Moby's incredible staff from near and very far are all so welcoming, Thank you Todd Barry and the team at Moby Dicks for a memorable evening and for continuing to set the expectations bar high and delivering to your first time and so many return guest year after year! read more

Great spot, especially for families on their way to p town. Very kid friendly, changing stations in both bathrooms, activity sheets, and tons of good quality high chairs. Food wise-- ordered steamers mussels jumbo Lobster roll. All good, listed from best to greatest. read more

My favorite fish and chips on the Cape. The efficiency of this place is remarkable, considering there's a line out the door and through the parking lot most nights. Even when you have to wait, it doesn't feel like you are. Employees hand you menus to look at while you're in line and pass out fresh watermelon slices. It looks like total chaos inside with so many employees zooming around, and it does feel a little strange to order up front and then be seated, but hey somehow it works. Amazing scallop dinner, great lobster, and of course the best fish and chips. The key lime pie is excellent and is the perfect finisher! read more

Delicious ! Delicious! The little gal so nice as you are greeted at the door. The atmosphere fantastic servers great ! We shared a seafood combo. The fried oysters were to die for. The cod scrumptious, the scallops perfect, the shrimp yummy. The asparagus and broccoli were cooked just right. The price is so reasonable for all you get. Next time I might eat the whole platter myself. What a special treat from a calif girl. Thank you all ! read more

Passing through the area and had to stop for seafood obviously. This place is conveniently located just off hwy 6. It was delicious and fresh. The scallops were huge and delicious. The fish and chips were wonderful as well. The atmosphere is calm and relaxing. They didn't rush us. The restrooms/restaurant were very clean and the staff attentive. There is outdoor seating, and they are pet friendly. There is lots of parking. We were here around 4ish (finished around 5:15pm) but when we passed by again at dinner time (about 2 hours later), the place was packed. I've learned when on vacation to eat at off times to avoid the crowds. Can't say enough good things about Moby Dick. I live on the Texas gulf coast and wish the seafood tasted this fresh at home. read more

Great food ... will definitely return ... stop in next time your in the area you won't be sorry

I have reviewed before in previous years so maybe I shouldn't again- but it's worth saying twice. Food is great, staff is friendly and efficient. We eat in and we take out - large orders every time and it is fast, fresh and exactly what you are looking for when you are on the Cape. Favorites include chowder, surf and steak tips, steamers, lobster , there's nothing we haven't liked! read more

This was a fantastic stop on the way to P-town. It's a casual atmosphere - order and pay at a counter, and then they bring the food to you. We had steamers, raw oysters, fish tacos, fried oysters, and grilled scallops. Steamers and raw oysters were a stand-out. Staff was Australian I believe, friendly. Would definitely stop in again. There is a store on the premises that was fun for browsing. read more

Glorious 2lb steamed lobster with corn and steamers, make for an awesomely delicious meal. I was pleasantly surprised with the size of the claws and the amount of meat that came out. The tail meat was equally as moist, tender with a little bit of chew that makes tails so enjoyable. I also tried the grilled scallops and shrimp. Ten portions were a nice size and everything was fresh. While the shrimp was good, the scallops stood out as great. Nicely grilled with a fresh from the sea taste. read more

Awesome spot conveniently located in wellfleet! Todd was the cherry on the sundae because he's funny!! BYOB- awesome food! Will be back!!'

What is cool about coming off-peak is there is no line anywhere. We walked right in, ordered by the counter right away, had our pick of whatever table we wanted and the waitress brought our food to us. We ordered Moby 's Fried Seafood Special which came with a piece of Codfish, some Scallops, Whole-Belly Clams and Shrimp with french fries and cole slaw. I enjoyed the Codfish and scallops the most. The clams were okay. I tried one shrimp and gave the rest to my bf because I'm allergic to it. But the one I had was very good. The fries were limp and greasy. This platter is good for two to three people. Depending on how hungry everyone is. It's a good way to sample everything if you can't make up your mind. Next time I am sure to get just the scallops which were my fave. The highlight of the meal was not the seafood though. Amazingly it was the KEY LIME PIE!!!! I wish there was a way for us to bring an entire pie home but we had more places to go and can't keep a Key Lime Pie in the car. The buttery graham cracker crust was yummy. The key lime filling was not dense and thick..it was creamy and fluffy. It had the perfect mix of tart and sweet. I love Key Lime Pie. I want a piece of Moby's KLP right now. read more

Good food, employees friendly. Dog friendly restaurant which was very appreciated. Took proper Covid precautions which was appreciated. Outdoor seating is basically on Rt 6 but it was a nice lunch. read more

Yummy. Line moves fast. Quintessential Cape fair. Did I say Yummy? Plenty of seating inside or outside - we were outside while it was raining and with the umbrellas is was a great experience the first week of August 2022. read more

Delicious lunch of fried clams and a fried fish sAndwich. The clams were lightly fried and fresh. The fish was flaky and delicious. The portions were large. The owner woman was coming around to check on everyone and was very hospitable which was nice. I lost my mask and she gave me two masks. Cute gift shop attached. read more

The food is decent. I have been here several times. My father ordered clams with bellies and I ordered clam strips. They came out exactly the same. It was 20$ more for the bellies and there weren't any! The waitress brought them back to the kitchen and they literally re-fried them and brought them back out. We told the manager and she was very unprofessional and rude. We didn't ask for our money back or anything. She was nasty and condescending. They have lost our business read more

We checked out yelp reviews and it was the reason we stopped off here on our day trip. We ordered and paid online and the food was delivered to our vehicle. They have designated spots to park right in front of the building when you place your Order online. We have a dog so we ate in our vehicle in the parking lot. It was extremely delicious. Expensive, but delicious and we don't treat ourselves like that very often for expensive food so it was a nice day topped off with great lunch. Everything was beautifully presented in the takeout containers. It wasn't just all thrown in the bag. read more

What a treat in an unpretentious setting! Excellent service, incredible food. We stopped by for lunch to get a lobster roll on vacation & we were not disappointed. The roll was stuffed with lobster, only a touch of Mayo on a grilled roll. The Cole slaw & fries were good, but the star was the lobster. Lunch was pricey- $81 without tip for 1 chowder, 2 jumbo lobster rolls & 2 sodas, but worth it. read more

My boyfriend and I have looked forward to eating fresh seafood in Cape Cod, and we decided on having dinner at Moby Dick's Restaurant in Wellfleet for our first meal in the Cape. Luck was on our side that day, as we were fortunate enough to take part in Wellfleet's restaurant week and we got the chance to eat a three course meal at Moby Dick's for an affordable $25! The choices included a cup of clam chowder (or chowdah, as they call it in the Northeast) or lobster bisque, fish & chips, strawberry shortcake, and key lime pie. We opted for their famous jumbo crab cakes, the grilled Atlantic salmon, and coffee ice cream for dessert (warning: Andrew and I eat a lot of ice cream on this trip). We also added the lobster roll to our order, 'cause who goes to Cape Cod and not order that any possible chance they get? It was $20 just by itself, and soon I will learn that $20 is the average price for these killer sandwiches. Worth it? Hell yes. Soon, our crab cake was on the table and it was perfectly seared and golden brown, laid on a neat pile of arugula. They weren't kidding when they said they were jumbo sized. They were bigger than the size of my palm (I think I have huge hands). I thought that they were a little flaky and I wasn't too sure what to expect. I've never had an actual crab cake before, so whatever it was that I envisioned it to taste like in my mind did not match the taste of what I actually ate. But it wasn't terrible and I'm happy we tried it. The lobster roll and salmon came next and I was deeply impressed with our choices. For starters, I thought my picture of the lobster roll was amazing. I sent it to all our family and friends and they adored the picture and proclaimed they hated us because we had the chance to eat it. It made me feel intensely satisfied (sorry not sorry? Just a little bit). They combined the lobster's tail and claw meat and mixed it in with mayonnaise and it tasted like heaven in my mouth. The portion was small and we split everything we eat so the portion size dwindled even more but it was so worth it. The salmon was just as good and at least that portion was more than the latter. Being perfectly cooked also gave it extra points. Finally, it was dessert time, and our coffee ice cream was devoured in a matter of minutes. Andrew called it the best ice cream we got all trip because the coffee was really strong, and while I thought it was really good as well, I'm still in favor of a local ice cream shop we visit later in Orleans. All in all, Moby Dick's food was well worth the visit. Also, the restaurant is BYOB, so take advantage of that option if you want. read more

Restaurant Week is back! $15 for a two course lunch or '$20 for a two course dinner - great deal! Always such a great place to go for a good lunch or dinner! It's casual and BYOB (table service available) but the fish is so fresh,and the rush is on to get your order to your table asap from the moment you place the order at the register. Get in line, peruse the menu board, order and decide where to sit, that's all you have to do- they find you as soon as the food comes out - it always reminds me of how Legal Seafood used to be when they first opened up 100 years ago. Somehow they magically get to you without error. Self service for condiments & water but it's kind of fun when you're waiting for crispy fried clams or fish or a perfect caesar salad with just the right proportion of dressing, parmesan and topping of your choice. Wait staff is always friendly, polite and accommodating even with hordes of customers asking questions, getting confused by the ordering system, staring at the menu and dawdling (IMHO!) before moving forward - they handle everyone with grace. We like this place a lot and have never had a less than delicious experience in many, many trips to Moby's. Go - drive down Route 6, look for the bright white parking lot by the Briar Lane blinking light, relax and enjoy! If you like my review, please click and let me know! read more

I should have trusted my instinct not to order fried seafood to go. My $40 fried seafood platter was soggy and overdone . Should have gone to Macs Shack instead . It's actually $10 cheaper for the fried seafood platter and I've been happy with every order from there . read more

I am so glad we caught this place on a day that it wasn't busy. We came right when it opened during fourth of July weekend and there was no line. The staff is super courteous, helpful, and accommodating. The food was perfect. We enjoyed our lobster roll, calamari, and especially the grilled day boat scallops. OH MAN. Were we full. The upper dining hall also has a great view of some marshes and a perfect cross breeze due to the windows. It was just lovely. Definitely a stop we'll do again when we had out to the cape. read more

We stayed in Falmouth and drive 1.5 hr to eat at Moby Dick's. The traffic in Cape Cod can be crazy. Moby D's was worth the drive! BYOB - beer & wine bring your own :) Clam Chowder - Tons of clams in that chowder Crab Cake - no fillers so good Mmmm Lobster Roll - tons of lobster meat yay Key Lime Pie - MUST ORDER OMG to die for, in all seriousness read more

I waited a long time to come back and it was worth the wait. The lobster was fantastic. My Dad didn't really like the lobster roll. I would say get the lobster for $5 more it's worth it. The next day we went back and the lobster was good but cold. I really enjoyed the lobster bisque. Steamers the second day were cold too but still really good!! read more

I make a point to stop by on my drive to Provincetown and on the way home. Excellent fresh Lobster Rolls, Fish & Chips, Crab Cakes and all the rest. Very friendly staff, great gift shop. It's the best fish shack I've ever been to over the years on the Cape. Remember to bring your cooler, BYOBeer, or wine. They sell no alcohol but will give you a huge beer tin full of ice. The reviewer below which bad mouths the hamburger and chicken is a real **********. This is fish shack Moby Dick's, not Burger Dick's. read more

Visiting Cape Code, hoping to get cheaper seafood but was unfortunately disappointed. Ordered variety of things, fried seafood platter, clam steamer, crab cakes, fish sandwich and a lobster roll. Everything was okay, price was almost outrageous since its more like a casual dining and picnic style tables. Seafood is fresh, the steamer pot and crab cakes were delicious, everything else was just okay since I could have ordered it anywhere and I feel like it would be just about the same. Key Lime Pie - Best thing on the menu. I will return for key lime pie, nothing else. read more

I absolutely love Moby Dick's. There are so many seafood places on the Cape. I will say Moby's is one of the best. It is what a great seafood place should be..very Cape Cody..beachy decor evoking the ocean which is perfect being on the Cape, casual environment. The staff is great ..both friendly and efficient. You go up and order and they have a great menu. I always get the whole belly clams here. Cape Cod is tailor made for Clams and I happen to love them. I prefer the whole belly to clam strips. Moby Dicks makes them perfectly..not greasy..just a great all around taste and nice large portions too. This is a really fun place to dine and they've been in business a good long time which says something about their quality. Totally recommended. read more

Super friendly and efficient staff. BYOB is a $$$ saver. Food was very good. Skewers with shrimp, scallops, and swordfish was outstanding. Kids fish and chips were very good. Only slight knock was the $32 lobster roll could have been bigger (though there was a ton of claw meat). Keep up the great work. read more

Yummy yummy seafood, just 7 to 10 minute drive outside P-town, we were fortunate enough to meet the owner who is a wonderful man, so friendly, helpful and knows the area like the back of his hand. Gave us great ideas for things to do, serves a great meal at a reasonable price, we will stop here every time we come through town. I had the clam chowder and the clam strips (it was a clammy day) and they were just delicious!! Back we will go!! read more

A Cape Cod spot where you order at the counter, but a hostess sits your party and servers bring out your food. Another bonus is that it's BYOB! While you're waiting in line you can enjoy a tasty brew (we were classy with our Genesee Ales, repping Rochester). While the line did wrap around the deck, it didn't feel like a terribly long wait. They also will bring out cups and buckets of ice to keep your beer/wine chilled. We went big and ordered a 1.5 lb. lobster with steamers and corn on the cob. We threw in an order of french fries too for my insatiable urge for carbs. This was my first official time eating lobster straight out of the shell. It was an experience, quite messy, but the most delicious meat known to mankind. My fears of eating restaurant seafood were muffled for a mere hour and I ate like a cavewoman knawing, scraping, and ripping apart this poor sea creature. The steamers were great too, melt in your mouth good. They're different than other clams I've had as they're larger and have a squishy "neck." I definitely preferred the lobster though, but that's just my preference for that type of seafood. For about $50, this meal was worth every penny and the perfect amount to share. read more

Just wanted to say, I still love this place dearly. The food and service is always outstanding. Also had a chance to speak with the owner when he stopped at our table to check on us. What a great guy! Also, the have all precautions in place to manage through the pandemic. Well done Moby's! read more

My bf and I were hungry and decided to check out the menu after driving by Moby Dicks and I'm so glad we did! We were promptly greeted and instructed on their "style" of service... ie order at the counter, have a seat and someone will bring your food out to you. The menu was pretty extensive and we had a tough time ordering. I got a half dozen oysters and lobster roll, the bf got calm chowder and the scallop sandwich. Everything was amazing, except whoever shucked the oysters could use some more practice (they were on the sloppy side, lots of pieces of shells). The owner served us our food and came over a number of times to make sure everything was good (which it was!). He was super nice and talked to us for a few. And on top of the amazing food, we were in and out within an hour. read more

My family comes here every year because this place is simply the best. The best seafood I have ever had is from Moby Dicks. It may be a bit of a drive but is worth every minute of the hike out there. This place is the definition of well oiled machine. As you stand in line you are presented with the menu and then you order at the counter inside then you seated. The owner even comes around during your meal to make sure you're satisfied! There is nothing bad on the menu, any choice you make will be a good choice. Personally, I got clam chowder, native clam strips and the key lime pie. I've never had a sandy clam here. Dont bother going anywhere else for top notch seafood come to Mobys. But MAKE SURE TO LEAVE ROOM FOR DESSERT! I fell in LOVE with the key lime pie. Mobys special orders it from a bakery in Georgia, this pie this made of magic and real ingredients. read more

Stopped at Moby Dick's after a day in P-town around early dinner time on a wet Saturday afternoon. No wait, easy parking spot and plenty of tables open - lots of staff to help with cleaning tables, getting water, etc. Family of four split a bacon blue salad - iceberg wedge, bacon bits and blue cheese dressing; a warm lobster roll with melted butter and a Moby's Fried Seafood Special (whole bellies, strip, scallops, cod and fries) - all came with slaw. Picnic style seating inside, fortunately not very hot, or maybe ceiling fans to keep us cool. Food was fresh and nicely cooked. Manager came around to check on the dinner and I noted how all the staff had name tags mentioning where they were from - sort of like Disney World. Pretty basic seafood shanty menu, but the items were fresh, hot and tasty - not too much breading. We would have liked to try the chowder, but a hot July afternoon is not the place for such a bowl. read more

My family had been going to the Cape for over 30 years. This is the one constant place we go to. Over the years the lobsters are stuffed, the wait staff is excellent and polite and ask you all the time with a smile if you need anything else. The appetizers are always tasty and very well priced. Its BYOB optional and there is a great liquor store down Rt. 6. When you are finishes they also have a sink for you to wash your hands in. I said to the owner on the way out "we've been coming here for 30 years" he replied with "let's make it 30 more!" I was brought here by my parents, my children will be brought here by me too. read more

Ordered takeout and waited for over an hour in the parking lot to pick up the order. The manager walked back and forth in front of us multiple times seemingly annoyed that we were still in the parking lot. When we finally got our food, our chowder was cold (???) and the server said "oh i'm sorry. did you want it hot?" Generally when one orders soup they would like it hot. We were not even offered a refund. Save your time and don't order takeout from here. read more
