    For 65$ you get a lobster, 4 king crab legs, 6 baked clams, 4 shrimp, waffle fries, and a big bowl of better. Oh, and before that you get a 3 course meal on the house. Solid.

    Fresh shrimp, lobster, clams, and oysters are on the menu when coming out here. Not only will you find delicious seafood, you'll also be able to find a bar or three serving up your faves.

    Tables by the water are the nicest. My experience overall was excellent. Complimentary appetizer was a delicious combination of seasoned olives, cheese, & fresh mushrooms.

    I've heard a lot of great things about this place. I heard the Lobster is good but I would not try the Shrimp Alfredo. It takes like hot milk. Sorry to say but honest. Blueberry cornbread is banging!

    Lobster was fresh and delicious. Our server Laundel was friendly and so accommodating with my elderly mom.

    I think better than sammies, mussels in red sauce so you can dip the bread, avoid the garlic sauce

    Kind of expensive. Some dishes are good, some aren't. If it's crowded, chances are your food'll be overcooked. But their prime rib is absolutely SUPERB.

    Not the quaint seafood restaurant you want. Food is not great for the price and service leaves a bit to be desired. Still one of the better options on City Island.

    Had great food all the times I have dined there. Really enjoy sitting on the veranda by the bay.

    They say the paella is for one, but it could easily feed a small family.

    Try the Shellfish Extravaganza! It's a lot of food, but a great variety.

    Food sucked, service sucked. My lobster was dry and rubbery. The soup was garbage. The lobster roll was all runny mayo. Save your money and keep walking down City Island to the Lobster Box.

    Not a great place if you're in any kind of hurry, food service can take over an hour. Avoid the Lobster Roll, it's like runny tuna salad.
