    Although they no longer add a shrimp garnish, the celery and cucumber on top is yummy and crunchy. As for the drink, it tastes strong and fresh, and good for those looking to go easy on spice. Read more

    They will serve you a 2 pound lobster filled with bread, scallops and shrimps. Great if you have no self-respect whatsoever.

    Amazing food so delicious.. You must order the baked stuffed lobster.. The service is great and the staff is very welcoming.. A bit pricey but it is worth it.

    Easily the best legal sea food restaurant I have been to in Boston. Exceptional service, and amazing food. Royal treatment not seen in the other legal sea food restaurants of Boston.

    You can totally eat here for under $20 and have a delicious meal: get a bowl of the clam chowder and a nice salad (I recommend the wedge). :)

    The lobster roll so good! The homemade bread and the fried calamari is the best

    Instead of their salmon dish get the salmon from the grille with your choice of sides. My preferred sides are the coleslaw and the peas...

    Boston cake was actually great. As usual there's almost no options for meat eaters. Please add something else other than filet mignon.

    As much as I hate going to chains for common fare, I am weary of disappointment while fine dining. Legal is right up there with Ruth's Chris for predictably amazing food.

    Try the Pan Roasted Swordfish - The truffle grits were amazing and the swordfish had great crisp without being dry.

    Lobsters and oysters, with wine or ale. Crowded. Come early

    Not bad for a chain. Decent crab cakes and lobster rolls. They could put more effort into the supporting cast of salads and soups. Kinda pedestrian.

    Tremendously disappointing. Came for lunch and got the clam chowder and lobster roll. Both were bland and not super fresh.

    The Cucumber Cooler is really weak and they won't make it stronger or bring you an extra shot.

    Not as fresh as they sell themselves to be. But solid casual seafood when you're in the mood.

    Not the place I remember. Seems more like a Red Lobster these days. Overpriced for the quality.
