See fish. Eat fish. Enjoy ocean-side dining just steps from the New England Aquarium. Our restaurant couldn't be more convenient to the Financial District, Freedom Trail, Faneuil Hall and waterfront hotels such as the Boston Harbor Hotel, Marriott and Intercontinental. Long Wharf is home port for many cruise ships and whale watches, while Duck Tours and Old Town Trolleys see the sights and then make a stop for seafood right outside our door. We think a visit to Boston must include a meal at Legal Sea Foods. If you're looking for some fun, eat in our lounge where you'll see what's cooking in our open kitchen. Or, during the warmer months, dine in our patio if you opt for the fresh seafood and fresh air combo. Our in-restaurant lobster tank keeps kids entertained.

    Really poor customer experience. Our meal took over an hour to arrive with no real explanation for the delay. Then they messed up one of the orders when it did arrive. We asked for them to do something because of the poor experience and they refused. Unlikely to return here.

    Gave off red lobster vibes, not what we were expecting. Sat across from the kitchen, very loud. Ended up leaving before the water came to the table

    Service and food were great. I did think it was a little pricey, however. Great location!

    Food lacked flavor. Did not get father than one bite on the baked haddock. It tasted old and looked like it sat under a heat lamp the entire day. Server cleared our plates including the completely full dinner entree without a single question. Terrible experience.

    Our server Derek was absolutely amazing. All of the food was great and very fresh. We had the clam chowder, mussels (some of the freshest) and the crab cake combo—everything was delicious. Would definitely go back.
