Seafood
  • Healthy
  • Neighborhood gem
  • Good for special occasions
Our restaurant is located on the second floor of Copley Place, near Saks Fifth Men's Store. We know shopping includes hunger - and Legal Sea Foods reels in those who want to splash down for a meal or grab-and-go. Our restaurant has direct indoor access to both the Westin and Marriott hotels as well as to the Prudential Center. Panoramic floor-to-ceiling windows overlook Boston's historic South End. Here the views and the seafood are second to none.

    I’ve eaten a lot of great scallops, and they are my favorite seafood, and when prepared correctly they are delicious! However, I have to say the ones served at Legal Sea Foods at Copley Place, were the worst I’ve ever eaten! They were very small, over cooked, dry, rubbery and tasteless. Sadly, when I inquired about scallops, the waiter recommended them, along with two sides, which I chose the sautéed mushrooms and yellow curry veggies both of which were also dry and tasteless. I have paid much less for LARGE, juicy, flavorful scallops in the past and was very disappointed and won’t be back again!

    We had an array of meals. The calamari was very good and the crab cake appetizer was amazing. The lobster bisque and clam chowder was average while the stuffed twin lobster tales were very good and the mussels were very good. Environment is a corporate feel which was fine. I would go again, they do lobster right!
