Seafood

Lively
Great for outdoor dining
Good for special occasions

See fish. Eat fish. Enjoy ocean-side dining just steps from the New England Aquarium. Our restaurant couldn't be more convenient to the Financial District, Freedom Trail, Faneuil Hall and waterfront hotels such as the Boston Harbor Hotel, Marriott and Intercontinental. Long Wharf is home port for many cruise ships and whale watches, while Duck Tours and Old Town Trolleys see the sights and then make a stop for seafood right outside our door. We think a visit to Boston must include a meal at Legal Sea Foods. If you're looking for some fun, eat in our lounge where you'll see what's cooking in our open kitchen. Or, during the warmer months, dine in our patio if you opt for the fresh seafood and fresh air combo. Our in-restaurant lobster tank keeps kids entertained.

Excellent service. Food though, it’s just okay. Ordered the seafood platter and everything was overcooked and chewy. The only thing that was delicious on it was the clams. The lunch menu was honestly not good.

We had a lovely experience eating outdoors on a beautiful Saturday evening. The restaurant was very busy but our waiter was very attentive. He suggested the crab cake dinner with shrimp and scallops. It was delicious.

We were seated in a quieter area which was wonderful for us as we looked forward to chatting. The steamers were very good the mussels had quite a few empty shells without the the tasty meats. Nice broth, great service as usual.
