   Worst experience! The food was subpar and came out lukewarm. The kitchen was out of oysters, crab and few other staples that qualifies this place as a seafood restaurant. We had to ask the server if we could order, that should’ve been an indicator for us to run!

   I believe this restaurant's best days are in it's past. The food, ambiance service are just not up to par. There is no reason to go here with so many other restaurants featuring service and delicious food.

   I highly recommend Seafare-everything is excellent-the staff, the food and the atmosphere. In addition the prices are quite reasonable considering the quality and quantity of the food.

    We really enjoyed our experience at the Seafare. While the food was very good, the service was what made the restaurant great. From being greeted and seated by nicely dressed and friendly manager at the host station, to the extremely attentive, well dressed wait staff, the service is what made this experience outstanding. The decor in the restaurant made you feel like you were in an ornate restaurant from the 70’s, but it wasn’t dated or worn at all. Very clean. Just many things you don’t get from restaurants anymore. The food was excellent and the prices were extremely reasonable, especially in this post COVID era of soaring prices.

    I'm a review reader and I must say, the quality of the food definitely wasn't worth the money not to mention it was very bland! I had the Sea Breeze drink, and I didn't like it; I ask the bartender what was in it and mention that I didn't like it. I order a glass of wine and still was charge for the Sea Breeze. Our Server was very attentive and pleasant. Lucky for Us it was a last-minute reservation for Valentine's Day however we won't be returning. Sorry Not Sorry!

    We had a table of eight' The restaurant was busy. They were not equipped to handle all the patrons. There wasn't enough silverware on the table. It took way to long to bring knives and forks. Some guests were served while others had to wait way to long. The food was okay not great. The fact that you can't handle a full restaurant is your problem not mine. I still paid the full amount for poor performance.

    We chose this restaurant to have a post-Christmas holiday meal with several family members. It was centrally located and had a good selection of seafood on the menu. There were not a lot of other patrons at the time so our server was attentive. The atmosphere was quiet and very nice for us. It was the food quality that was less than expected for at least four of us. The crab cakes were mushy and the clam chowder was not very flavorful. We had just eaten at another establishment two days before and they were signficantly better for about the same price for the entrees. It's not that The Seafare was horrible, but we know we can find a better experience for the same money. Good luck.

    This was a classic 1970’s style fine dining experience which could be appreciated by children and adults alike. The food was tasty and the service and experience were exactly what our family of 5 with three kids under 10 needed. My 6 year old son boldly claimed it was his “favorite restaurant ever” but it was enjoyable for the adults as well.

    For our family of three, this restaurant was just okay. The service was fantastic. The menu looks great. The restaurant ambience is perfect for a higher-end seafood/steak house. Unfortunately, the food was just not that good. My wife's scallops were drowned in cooking wine, my son's crab cakes just fell apart and my tournedos of beef were some of the worst I've had. I may be in the majority as most restaurants in the area had no reservations available but at Seafare, we were only of only 10 tables that had patrons at the time (6:30 reservation). Again, this place has all the pieces to be a great restaurant. Just needs more attention on the food itself.

    The ambiance was nice. There was very little oysters in The Blue Point Oysters and they tasted of sand and dirt. The Jumbo Shrimp cocktail was good. My wife ordered the Crab Stuffed Shrimp with rice pilaf. She was given a baked potato instead. The Super Sauton was tasty but very watery. We were excited about the opportunity to eat there but left very disappointed and will not be returning.

    Our dinners, the salmon and flounder were very good, would order again. We also ordered an appy, stuffed mushrooms, this was disappointing, it was one mushroom with stuffing, looked like 3 but was only one as it fell apart getting to our plate.

    The restaurant is dated, but the food is solid. If you can get past the 80's nautical themes and the relatively high prices, then it is not bad.
