Reviews
Our appetizer, Crab cakes, were served on top of lettuce and were good, but could have been just a smidge more crispy. Beers average $5 a piece, with a moderate selection. Between our appetizer and entrees, 2 warmed buns were brought out with butter. They were tasty, and helped hold us over until the food came out. I feel like several more of these while waiting for food could have significantly enriched our expirience.
The main entrees (steam boiled crab, clams, and shrimp) came out after 30 minutes and were okay, but just seemed to be lacking something. Other businesses combine sausage with dishes like this to offset the small portion sizes and fill you up. The garlic sauce was very good (4/5), the special sauce was okay (3/5).
Over all, I’ve had worse. I’ve also had much better for the price we paid ($100 for 2 people). Joe’s Crab Shack has everything this place did for the same price, with higher quality, a better drink menu (ex: shark bite), and a much cheerier atmosphere. As another reviewer stated, it doesn’t feel like this place will be here for long.
I probably won’t go back, but I wouldn’t discourage others from going. The waitress was very nice as well.
What we ordered
Clam chowder
Fried calamari
Lobster roll
Combo E -shrimb, lobster, snow crab legs, potato and corn.
Two cocktail drinks
Clam chowder- the clam chowder was clumpy but delicious. It needed to be a little bit more watery in my opinion but besides that the clams were fresh and that flavor was great.
Fried calamari- The fried calamari was fresh and cooked perfectly.
Lobster roll – This was the biggest dissapointment now understand you are paying $18.99 which is a hefty price so you expect a decent amount of lobster in your roll but your wrong. What they did was elegantly placed the lobster on the upper portion of the roll to mimic that it was completely full, while the bottom of the roll was left with little pieces of lobster. I would recommend anyone not to get this item since it is such a rip-off
Combo E – everything was great except for one thing the sauce. My wife ordered the harbor special but there was something missing. For some reason at juicy seafood the juicy special sauce has more favor that wants to make you like the bowl. The spice level was awesome however the snow crab legs were a bit salty.
All in all I would recommend anyone to go to juicy seafood to compare both. In terms of flavor my vote goes to juicy seafood but when it comes to decor seafood harbor is more elegant. You guys be the judge!
I was seated immediately and my waitress was very kind. I ordered my beer and perused the menu while she gave me some time. Unfortunately when my beer arrived it was the Weihenstephaner Kellerbier, which is a different variety and style than the Hefe Weissbier. I asked if it could be replaced but my waitress informed me that was the only Weihenstephaner beer they carried. I politely let her know that they are advertising the wrong kind on their menu, any that’s the only point I will take off. I ordered a Pepsi instead and was glad to see I was not charged for the beer.
I ordered the Lobster Roll and normal fries. Per their menu you can order the lobster roll cold with mayo or hot with melted butter, and I opted for the latter. The sandwich was delicious! The roll was perfectly toasted and the lobster itself was hot and flavorful. The french fries were also very good, as they were plenty hot and crispy.
I paid $30 for everything, tip included. While this may seem high to some considering the amount of food I got, I was very satisfied personally. The roll had plenty of lobster stuffed into it to justify the price.
On a whole I had a very good first experience here, and I would recommend it to anyone in Rochester craving a good lobster roll!
The food was cooked perfectly but the sauce is a bit overwhelming. Absolute butter overload. I’m not saying it’s as a bad thing. Just something to know if you decide to get the harbor special sauce. My preference is steamed crab but broiled is pretty good. Hopefully the kitchen can expand to steamed seafood soon!
Very fun experience overall and our waitress was very polite and charming. Kudos to the bar, they make a delicious margarita!
Just before the bathrooms is a sink to wash your hands. I appreciated this being the germaphobe that I am.
I will probably give this place another try but not anytime soon because there are so many other options and this first trip, though not horrible, it didn’t do much for me.
They use far too many straws since they replace half empty water glasses with new ones instead of filling them up. That’s just wasteful.
Fried fish didn’t come with any sauce
“Cajun” fries were good. Coleslaw was ok.
The restaurant is nice, good decor and lighting.
