Serious EatsSerious Eats: Go for the spaghetti with spicy red sauce and clams, the steamed littlenecks, and the scallop crudo. Avoid the fried clam roll and clam chowder, which add cost but no improvement to the classic dish.

Katie E.Katie Eytch: The mussel chowder is a MUST. Chunky and full of fresh mussels and veggies. The puff pastry is perfect crumbled into the chowder. Shiitake & shrimp toast is average, and a little bland.
