    Incredibly fresh. Owner actually goes to Point Judith to get finest catch. They don't depend on wholesalers whose fish is preserved in a brine but focuses on the freshest catch. I have tried fish from the big name stores and local fish stores and have never found anything that comes close to Saybrook Seafood. But don't take my word for it or anyones on the web you have to try it yourself. Oh by the way when you enter Saybrook Seafood you don't get a funky old fish smell, rather you smell one of their wonderful homemade soups or chowders cooking in the back.

    Little necks, yum!

Nothing beats it. I would take a picture of my sandwich I just had today to give a presentation but it's been devoured. If you haven't given this place a shot, do yourself a favor and check it out.

The meats, seafood, deli items including salads, sandwiches, soups, prepared lunches, dinners, as well as bakery items, produce, and prepared frozen items are ALL HOMEMADE & DELISH! They also stock a fantastic selection of well known dry, refrigerated and frozen groceries! 2) The prices are extremely reasonable. 3) The staff are genuine, kind, helpful & efficient. 4) ITS NOT a hoity-toity exorbitant boutique grocer. It's an authentic old school neighborhood establishment that provides reliable, consistent, excellent quality groceries. AN OLD SAYBROOK LOCAL INSTITUTION that has stood the test of time. I am completely HOOKED on this place! I have had their grinders which are fantastic. Their croissants, cookies, soups, prepared dinners which are also fabulous! The portions are generous & the prices are very reasonable! Walt's is TRULY is a GEM in the local COMMUNITY! We are INCREDIBLY FORTUNATE to have this fantastic independent grocer in the area! PLEASE always remember to SUPPORT LOCAL BUSINESSES! They are the CORE of all Communities! Try it! You will NOT be disappointed! ENJOY!

    Took the hot rod down to Old Saybrook, as I was craving some Rhode Island clam chowder…read more So Johnny Ads kept popping up in my mind. It's been a while since I've been here, but this little seafood shack has never done me wrong. I pulled in just after 1:00 PM on a Monday afternoon and the order line at the window was steady. The staff were cheerful and moved us guests along quickly. I put in the order for some Rhode Island clam chowder and six clam fritters. I also ordered a birch beer. Within 10 minutes, my order was ready at the pick up counter. I found my way to one of the open and very clean tables inside the restaurant. At first glance, the clam chowder looked way too rich, almost New England style (white and thick) I kind of sighed a little bit and felt a little disappointed. But once I stuck that spoon into the chowder, that thickness seemed not that important. The clams were generously portioned, some small, some large, some nice and chewy, along with a great flavored broth and some small diced white potatoes. This was deliciousness at its best. Simple with that by the sea scent and flavor. This could be one of the best clam chowders I've had yet in Connecticut. The six clam fritters were good, yet a bit greasy. The fritter dough itself was delicious, but I would've liked a little bit more clams in the fritters. I didn't like the tartar sauce on the side, so I went to the counter and got some cocktail sauce. This is what should be served in my opinion with the fritters. I loved this combination, and I definitely would order this again as an appetizer. The birch beer was delicious. I think it was on tap so I don't know the brand. Again, I would order this again. For a little drive in that is a bit antiquated, the cleanliness is on point. I didn't check the restroom though. When going through Old Saybrook, this would be great consideration for a quick lunch.

    Such a charming place, especially during the summer! Love the outdoor area and the hot dogs and…read moreseafood are really delicious! Love the ice cream place next door and the service is fast and friendly. I love the nostalgic atmosphere and love visiting each summer now.

You order from a giant menu at the front before grabbing a seat at one of many picnic tables. The atmosphere is casual and a couple of bees made it difficult to eat as they chased me. The chicken tenders were hot and crispy, and the lobster roll was buttery and fresh. The clam chowder was very good. While everything tasted great, I felt the portions were quite small for the price, which left us looking for more food somewhere else.

    I saw a clip from Sistersnacking and they claim this was the best lobster roll in CT, and honestly,…read moreit was a bad recommendation. I should have went somewhere else because the lobster roll wasn't that great. The Food: 1/4lb Hot Buttered Lobster Roll- Where do I begin, first the lobster itself didn't offer a lot of flavor, second there was this weird artificial butter flavor like how you get butter from the movie theater, it was so strange it almost tasted like a weird cheese sauce which I wasn't a fan of, third I didn't care for the bread. It was toasted but it was toasted with so much butter, I feel if i squeezed the roll, butter would of oozed out like if I squeezed a sponge. The sauce covering the lobster was a thick white sauce, it almost looked like they tossed the lobster meat with the chowder then added to the bun. The lobster roll came off incredibly rich and heavy, after eating it, I felt I needed soda or a pickle to cut the richness. https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?userid=Y_iTTjKvV5hLy-880SZzlA&select=bwm5DvpNdSEKtNiD24hT-g New England Clam Chowder- This was excellent. I thought the chowder had so much flavor and good amount of clams, I really enjoy this a lot but $8 was kind of a lot. Fried Cheese Curds- Fried Wisconsin squeaky cheese with chipotle aioli. I really liked these, these would go perfect with beer, these were fried well, had an awesome chew and flavor, the chipotle aioli was excellent with these. https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?userid=Y_iTTjKvV5hLy-880SZzlA&select=l1vGrABsKxpXqbEQPHWYXw
