Ambiance, music, drink was on point but the lobster roll was sad. The meat was almost shredded and dry which was strange but that wouldn’t deter me from going back I just wouldn’t order that again.

Good food, as always. Very happy with the beer selection as they had one of my favs, Estrella Galicia!! Only downside was the lobster crackers did not work well, and they didn’t have lobster picks which made it very diffuse to get at the meat in the claws. Otherwise, everything was fantastic and delicious.

Best seafood culinary experience ever. The staff was very friendly, We arrived on time at the facility, and we had to wait for our table. So me and my wife ordered some drinks at the bar and before we had our first sip I received a message (from “Find a Table”) that our table was ready. We had lobster tail and pasta, and they were delicious. The service was great, and we will surely go back to Nick’s for the Sushi’s.

Made reservations for 7:30PM. Received a text that our table was ready at 6PM but responded back at 7PM to text we were on our way. We arrived at 7:15PM and had to wait 30 min to be seated???? They are understaffed and seemed to have very inexperienced servers. In particular the busboys. An appetizer was forgotten so we canceled it when we got our entrees. Took to long to clear table and take dessert order so we left. The food was very good but the staff on the floor needs better training.

Made a reservation plenty of time in advance & still had to wait 35 minutes to sit. I can understand if I walked in off the street, but not if you make a reservation. Also if your one of the last ones walking out, the staff gets pushy about unlocking the front door to exit, Otherwise the food was very good, just a bit pricey.

AWESOME food as usual. Lovely ambiance as always. Got lucky with a window table which my son just looooooves. Sadly the waitress was not very tuned in this time though :/ Only saw her once after order was placed. 12 minute wait for the bill, had to go get her. Will def be back obviously, just a bummer on the service side this time. (Hostess/seater were super friendly/hospital just like every time)

Love the lobster! The best reason to come here, all the seafood is good, my husband is vegetarian so they made him a pasta dishes which wasn’t so good. The atmosphere is beautiful right on the water. A Childhood favorite place

The food is terrific. Staff is nice. It's noisy if it's crowded. Nice views of the bay. But it's gotten very expensive. Two people, two appetizers, four drinks, two lobster tails -- over $300. But to be fair we did get some the higher priced items on the menu. And they charge an additional fee for using a credit card. All of that being said, I will go back, had a great time. But if you go, be prepared to pay.

Food was terrible. Lobster tail had an odd chemical taste, rib eye steak had an enormous well above normal amount of fat, asked for it to be medium well it came well done, the crab boil was ok except the shrimp was mushy as if it was boiled a few times. Lobster bisque was great, calamari was great, salmon bites were good but cooked medium with crispy skin, shrimp cocktail was also very good. Staff was amazing very kind and attentive. Music was a nice level; ambiance was great.
