    They wouldn't sit a "single diner" at a table, only at the bar. Then when I was leaving three tables with single male diners - including the one where they wouldn't sit me.

    Crab cake combo was absolutely delicious! One of the best seafood meals I've had. Richard is an excellent server and very knowable on the menu. Little pricey but totally worth it.

    I had the most delicious Chicken Caesar Salad! Everything was perfect! Fresh veggies and cheeses, the chicken breast was perfectly seasoned and grilled, the dressing was delicious! Wonderful Staff!

    So bummed they don't have rolls in this location (unlike Logan). However excellent quick service! Definitely a good place to stop in pre flight!

    When you can't decide on which seafood, pick the Cioppino entree, combines all seafoods from half a lobster tail to sea scallops in a tomato soup

    The hot sourdough rolls are killer. Great service, good food. Overall a 8 out of 10, minimum. Louisiana Catfish Matrimony is a great dish for the price. Lots of food with great taste.

    Fisherman's Trio (fried shrimp, scallops, and clams) is good, but the real treat is the Maryland Cream of Crab soup. They will serve a cup, even though it's not on the menu. Excellent service too.

    It was standard Legals. Being from the home of the original, I tend to be a little hard on the new corp owned restaurants. But the great service is what makes this location stand out.

    The grilled salmon was perfect. The broccoli was great. And the seaweed salad was very good also.

    I'm no food critic, but their Lobster Roll is one of the best sandwiches I've ever had. And the Seaweed Salad is something else.

    The clam chowder is really good. It is $6.95 for a cup, however. Go to Sam & Harry's down by gate 35. Clam chowder is $7 for a bowl there.

    Good spot for an airport. Plenty of variety and much quieter than the terminal. A bit pricey

    No rolls, and the food was off. Unfortunately the best legals airport locations are at Logan.
