I really hate to say this because I have always loved Al's, but after my experience this week, I…read morefeel people should know what to expect if they're considering ordering a lobster roll there. First, I was surprised to find that they no longer serve their lobster rolls on the grilled hot-dog-style roll they used to use. The lobster roll is offered either cold with mayonnaise or hot with butter. I don't like mayonnaise, but I also didn't want my lobster heated. I asked if I could have the cold lobster with butter instead, and the woman at the counter said that would be fine. When I received my receipt, I noticed I had been charged an additional $1 on a nearly $30 lobster roll simply to have hot butter put on the cold lobster. I was honestly flabbergasted. All I wanted was cold lobster with melted butter poured over it. What bothered me almost as much was the way the situation was handled. The customer behind me ordered a lobster roll, and the woman at the counter specifically asked if she was okay with having it on a sub roll. She had never mentioned that to me. After overhearing that conversation, I went back and asked why I hadn't been told that the lobster rolls were no longer served on the traditional roll. The response was quite abrupt, and the manager was called over. Unfortunately, the manager was also angry and rude about the situation. I simply explained that, to me, a traditional New England lobster roll includes the grilled, buttered roll -- and that is exactly what I had ordered at Al's earlier this summer and loved. In the end, I was refunded the $1 butter charge and also received a refund for the entire lobster roll, which was around $34. I'm very disappointed because I have always loved Al's and have recommended them in the past. But after this experience, I won't be going back to Al's for a lobster roll. It's not just the change in the lobster roll itself; it was the lack of communication regarding the change and, most importantly, the way I was treated when I politely asked about it.

Our drink orders were taken right away but after the drink orders service was a little slow. The waitress explained they were short staffed. I take no stars off for this. Short staff is a common issue including my place of business. Our waitress was very friendly and really good with the children in our party. I really liked the variety on the menu. There were affordable options with some higher priced dinners. There was an option for everyone in our party. I had the stuffed haddock covered with a seafood stew. I'm a little bit of a snob when it comes to seafood stuffing so I was a little hesitant to try it but OH BOY am I glad I did. The stuffing and stew were amazing! No leftovers for me. The rest of our party had various options off the menu and all of us were please with our meals. I highly recommend The Old Salt. A nice ambience. Friendly service. Great food.

Our experience at Nick's Place was far from ideal. We ordered a gluten-free pizza and a medium curly fry, but the timing of the dishes was quite disappointing. The curly fries arrived promptly within five minutes, but the pizza took an excruciating 50 minutes to reach our table. What made matters worse was the lack of communication from the staff about this lengthy delay; we had to inquire about the status of our order ourselves. When the pizza finally did arrive, it was only average in taste, nothing exceptional. The overall cleanliness of the restaurant was also subpar, with flies buzzing around and noticeable dirt on the floor. Regrettably, this experience has left us with no desire to return to Nick's Place in the future. read more

They offer North Shore roast beef sandwiches, hot & cold subs, wraps, burgers, salads, rice bowls, chicken fingers, bagged chips, cannoli dip, doughnutz, whoopie pies, and Pepsi products in the cooler. At the time of this posting, pizza and calzones were not available since the business was still awaiting approval of the new ovens by the City. The place is order at the counter or online ordering with ample table seating. I stopped by Tostimo's in Portsmouth for takeout recently. I ordered online, a 5-Way Jr. Roast Beef Sandwich ($12 plus tax) and a Greek Chicken Kebab Rice Bowl ($16 plus tax). My number was ready and bagged in about 15 minutes after ordering. The 5-Way Jr. Roast Beef had shaved rare roast beef, James River BBQ sauce, mayo, American cheese slice, horseradish & crispy onion ring on a toasted soft deli roll. Similar tasting to their larger Super Beef, this is what tasty roast beef sandwich should be. The rice bowl was a good portion which had rice pilaf, tender pieces of savoy marinated chicken, lettuce, tomato, onions, feta cheese & creamy Greek dressing, I was only able to finish half of the rice bowl and saved it for lunch. I will have to revisit this location again when pizza and calzones become available.
