After a long day of mansion tours, we ended up at The Lobster Bar (Aquidneck Lobster Company)…read more Surprisingly, we were seated immediately on the rear deck, fairly close to the water. My wife opted for the traditional lobster roll, which was absolutely loaded with lobster meat. It could've used a bit more mayo, so she ended up drizzling some of my clarified butter on it. The fries were nice and crispy, but the slaw was a bit dry and flavorless. I had the half grilled lobster, which had a nice smokiness to it. Dipping it in the clarified butter added some richness to it as well. I also had fries and slaw. Neither of us ate the latter after a couple of bites. Our waitress was quick and courteous, even though she tables inside and out. They were seating new tables even after the posted closing time, so we didn't feel rushed. Overall, this was a pleasant, casual experience.

Fish and chips, calimari platter, and whole belly clam platter. Very lightly fried, which was good. No oil dripping off the food. But I think the breading coating the food was missing something. Prices are fair.

Two liked the Raw Oysters and Little Neck Clams served with three sauces: vinegar based, cocktail, and hot sauce. Three of us ordered locally caught baked Flounder. Very large piece of fresh harvested fish were succulent. Whole filleted fish? One ordered the Scallops. The large scallops are cooked perfectly and flavorful. A few days later, I ordered the Scallops at Champlins! Delicious My grandson ordered the grilled swordfish which I considered ordering. He wanted me to try a piece since it was perfectly cooked. It was not dry at all. My daughter had the broiled sea scallops, her favorite. We keep coming here because they serve great quality seafood that is prepared skillfully. Ambiance: Eating seafood seaside can not be beat. Champlain's is located in the scenic fishing village of Galilee in Narragansett, RI. You can watch the commercial fishing boats and the Block Island Ferry enter the port from the wrap a round windows on the enclosed deck. Prices are low to moderate.

If you want a true Rhode Island seafood experience, this is the place. Champlin's Seafood is as…read morefarm to table as it gets, except it's literally ocean to plate. You can sit there and watch the fishing boats come in knowing that seafood is about to end up on your table. It doesn't get more authentic than that. The calamari is cooked perfectly and so good. The littlenecks and steamers are my absolute favorite, I honestly have never had better. Everything tastes insanely fresh. The staff is what really makes it special. Some people have been working there for decades and it feels more like a family than a restaurant. Their bartender Kerri has won awards just for being herself, and once you meet her, you'll get it. It wouldn't feel like a real Rhode Island visit without stopping here. Champlin's is just one of those places you keep coming back to.

Since it was a quieter day, we got to pick almost any seat we wanted--talk about prime waterfront views! Our server was awesome--super funny and easygoing, which only added to the good vibes. Quick note: it's BYOB, so plan accordingly if you need a beveragino. I went with their signature fish and chips, and it was a winner. The fish was coated in a crispy cornflake dredge that hit all the right notes--crunchy perfection. The fries were nothing to write home about. On the other hand, the calamari appetizer? Absolute gold. Tender, flavorful, and perfectly cooked--I'd order it again in a heartbeat.

RATING: 2.33/5 This restaurant is wildly overpriced and…read moreseems to attract most of its customers based on the atmosphere rather than the quality of the food. I ordered the poke bowl, and quite frankly, it was absolutely disgusting. The fish didn't taste fresh, the flavors were completely off, and I couldn't finish it. A friend ordered the shrimp plate and was served only five shrimp, all of which were severely overcooked, alongside cold fries. Considering the price, the food was nothing short of insulting. To make matters worse, the bathroom doesn't even lock. It's awkwardly located, and instead of fixing a basic privacy issue, the restaurant apparently relies on employees to warn other customers not to open the door while it's occupied. That's unacceptable. The only positive thing I can say is that the service was fine. Overall, this place charges premium prices for poor food and overlooks even the most basic details. I would not recommend it.

It definitely has the little clam shack vibes that makes the experience feel even more authentic. You order at the counter and they bring the food to you. I ordered a clam chowder cup and a hot lobster roll. I don't know if it was because I was there in the winter, but the lobster roll was generally affordable, running you only a bit over $27 which is almost unheard of these days. And they didn't skimp out on the meat too ! The lobster roll was filled to the brim and so delicious. The clam chowder was also incredible. I also love that they have a little market in case you want to make any of their seafood at home ! Will definitely become a staple when I come back to visit my parents.

I went on a rainy Monday around noon and there was still a steady flow of customers. It seems to be a pretty popular spot. The staff is all very friendly. The soups were served to us immediately after paying. The New England Clam Chowder was good. Nice amount of clams and very creamy. I had never had Rhode Island Clam Chowder before and this seemed like the place to try it. The clear broth was surprisingly flavorful but I still prefer New England. My girlfriend and I ordered a good amount and the food came out pretty quickly. My favorite was the kung pao calamari. The squid was fried perfectly and having the sauce on the side was nice as it didn't leave the breading to get all soggy and I had control over how sweet it would be. The stuffed Quahogs tasted good but I feel like I tasted more of the stuffing over the actual shellfish. It still tasted good, but I feel like I should've gotten more shellfish. We were told they ran out of shells to serve them on so the presentation was off, but they were still tasty. The lobster rolls were both good. They were $27 which seems pretty steep to me but they were actually on the cheaper side compared to other places we saw around Newport. The lobster tasted fresh and the bread was good. They were solid lobster rolls. The food was all solid, but for the price I wasn't wowed.

Thank you, the food was good, but they should let you know when the food is ready. I had gone to…read morethe window and asked if this was were you pick up the online order and the guy said yes .

It has been a year since we have eaten food from Iggy's, and the food was as good as we remember. Today is further proof that seafood tastes better by the sea.

Three dozen Clam Cakes --great texture, fried perfectly but needed more clam bits Three orders of Fish Fry --very large pieces of battered cod, fries and small coleslaw Four Fish Fry Sandwiches One Fried Shrimp One Baked Haddock dinner --excellent Kudos: Compostible cardboard is used for dinners and sandwiches. Bowls for chowder were also paper based instead of plastic. We placed the order online for pick up. The restaurant was extra busy on a beautiful Friday evening in July with multiple take out orders as well as dine in service.

The lobster chunks were big, the roll was buttery, smooth, and toasted just right. I also got the clam chowder, and that hit the spot too.

I ate in my car on a rainy day like a man who is focused on seafood. Parking is street paid parking only, so may luck be on your side. I would eat there again, maybe get 2 rolls if I am feeling oinky.

Unfortunately, it was a sweltering day by the time I got there for a late lunch and to my dismay, they only had a few outdoor dining tables set up a small parking lot away from the main ordering window. Some of the seats covered by the patio umbrella, some were out in the blazing sun. I decided to try their lobster roll (the hot version with no mayo), which came as a combo including a bag of chips and a drink. They actually had a little mix-up with my order that made it a bit longer, but the staff was nice and gifted me a free bowl of chowder for the inconvenience! The lobster rolls itself was delicious and the bread was incrediby soft, the perfect compliment to the tender lobster chunks. The chowder was super hearty and thick, filled with clams and potatoes. I ended up loving it all. Despite the heat and the slight delay, the food was good and service recovery was spot on. Definitely worth checking out if you're local!
