Prices are insane and portions very small. I am dissapointed of the quality of seafood everything in Maine is now overpriced and small portions. At the beggining I thought it was a joke when i receive this small of a lobster roll. bringing in a 60$ CAD small lobster roll that has a michelin restaurant price is pretty darn sad.

Prices are way too high for what it is ! Expect to pay 30$ for ten fried shrimps, fries and a small coleslaw. The lobster rolls alone, which you can eat in three bites, cost 30$. The market price of shrimps is nothing, and you can get a 1 pound lobster for 9$ at Hannaford's. In the lobster roll itself there is something like a quarter of a pound of meat. Got the flue back home, most likely from the server who we thought was on drugs but probably just sick. The food itself was ok, not good, not bad. The only decent thing I can think of is the sea themed decorations and placemats with some fun facts about lobsters. Honestly, just go somewhere else... Unless you like being ripped off...

Got the lobster and steak combo, lobster was fresh and she'll was breakable with your hands. Mixed drinks were great and our server always refreshed drinks and brought anything our kids needed.

Maybe their lobsters are good, but it is a business that has no respect for its employees, makes you work at maximum hours and with maximum effort, and pays a minimum salary on top of it. If you are not an American citizen and you are thinking of working here, do not believe the hourly wage they tell you. They paid me less than they promised and then when I asked for the money I was entitled to, they said it is what it is. What a shame for a business that has been serving for years.

I've gotten good here 3 times, and each time was worse than before. The wait time here is absolutely insane. We waited 30 minutes to order and then another 30 minutes for our order. There were maybe 4 takeout orders before us, and there were only 3 tables taken inside! Prices here are unjustifiably high for the portion that you get, and food is not great either. 40$ (!!!) for the portion of clams in the picture. RIDICULOUS!

Used to love this place. Order taker punched in turf but omitted the surf. By the time I got it it was too late to get the lobster. The strip steak was thin dry and tough. The waiters could barely understand what was being said to them. I had to show them how to put two tables together. Everyone in my party of 6 save for one said the food was okay. The only way I will go back is just to order lobsters to go.

Wonderful landmark family owned restaurant with delicious food. Only open seasonal, May through early September, and with a line to order during normal busy times. Go inside to view a large menu, with pictures, on the wall under a covered patio. Order your food at the service window, pay, then find a seat inside or outside, or take out is available. A waitserver will approach your table for your drink order. This server will take your food receipt, deliver your drinks and the food when it's ready. Full bar is available. Tasty refreshing margaritas were made for us. We had the large lobster, fried clams and shrimp entree. It was served with fries and coleslaw. Everything was cooked fresh when we ordered. The lobster was split in half. Our food was very delicious. Our service was quick and server was friendly and knowledgeable. Free parking is available in two lots. We enjoyed our visit and will come back next time we visit this area.
The food was wonderful! Ordering was easy at awalk up window. Atmosphere was very casual. The staff was less than helpful. We got there later on the evening. Not many customers at all, at least 6 wait staff, had to ask bar person for a cloth to clean our table. She didn’t give us one, she asked a waiter, but still took several minutes. Also, when we waved him over to get boxes for leftover food, he ignored us. They close at 9pm. All the staff was cleaning dining area around us but no one ever looked over to see that we needed. I get that they all were getting ready to leave but would have been nice to have them notice us.

We took our family to this restaurant on our first night in old Orchard Beach. We have four kids. We got there around five and beat the rush. The food was good and the portions were good and the prices were reasonable. There was plenty of seating. Once we ordered from the window, the food was brought to our table. Would definitely go back again.

I had Fried Haddock Dinner with Waffle Fries and Cole Slaw. Haddock was very light and delicious. Waffle Fries plentiful and the Slaw was perfectly creamy. All my years driving by so finally stopped in for lunch. Absolutely no complaints except wish I’d frequented this place before. Definitely come here again.

We ordered food from the woman at the front window. She incorrectly filled out order. We asked the waitress to correct the order when the order was delivered. The bill came and we were charged incorrectly due to the error that the owner made who was working the front window. The waitress said she would correct the bill, by that she would be charged by the owner for the error. We asked to speak to the owner and she treated us very poorly. Will never go back there. The food is good but the owners are rude to their customers and not good to their employees. Better to be a patron to owners who are good people.
