Legal Sea Foods...
 

Call me a touron.

I am a closet lover of Legal Sea Foods. :D

Let the wee wee bashing begin. :hihi:

Why would we bash??? I like them too.

Barbara Streisand eats there alot!:laughs:

I ate there once in Boston, I wasnt crazy about it. Maybe I should give it another shot..?

I've eaten there three times and three strikes your out. Never had a decent meal there(Boston & Framingham), the service was terrible, the prices too high and they use early release prisoners in the kitchen at lower than the minimum wage. I can find better elsewhere. Enjoy your meal:yak6:

usually I only eat sea food when I catch it .
if I see food I will usually eat it .

Yeah im careful about the seafood at restaurants, trust me:D . Ive seen and heard to many stories over the years. My last boss's 1st employer used to take fish that was getting a lil ripe, a rejuvinating bath in some bleach water to get a few extra days out of it:yak: :yak:

I'd rather have a Filet-o-fish at the McD's drive thru. Tastes the same but the service is better.

No Name!

i take the bus to boston:laughs: i allways dine at no name.
if im cheap and i am its the seafood stew xtra garlic bread.

the problem i have with most resturaunts is over cooking of food.
and to have to pay for it :smash: i been burned to many times

If your ever in Boston - The "No Name" resturant on Fan Peir. You actually walk by & among the fish just offloaded from the trawlers - talk about fresh. The only way to get fresher fish - get off your ass.
Great prices Great portions. You can keep your facy tablecloths just give me the grub.

I used to eat at the Legal in Cambridge when I lived close by...it was always great...we are talkin many moons ago
I loved the mussels au grautin and the bluefish pate...been to the one in Braintree a couple times...it's okay

The home of brotherly love:
$17 for a p-uni lobster roll, but it was at the one in Logan.

The "No Name" gets my vote too.

i like legal, ive even been in their processing plant in boston cool place :happy: :happy:

ummm... one word
NO:smash: :smash: :smash:

Legals sucks - if you are in town, go to The Atlantic Fish Co... much better.

Pat's over by Mil Street has the best Boston Schrod...

the atlantic fish co, john? is it in boston? legal seafood sucked when i tried my mom's bluefish with jasmine rice dish when i was 12. blahh. but they are good. i like cape cod seafood better. and also boston, too.

woodmans....:drool:

Yes - Woodman's in Essex is excellent. The Clam shack too

If you like Woodmans, you'll like Farnhams and The Clam Box even more. This is for Fried stuff

As far Boston Seafood places, I'm with JohnR, Atlantic blows away Legal's, so does The Summer shack.

The No Name is nothing like it used to be and full of Tourist buses,but the price is still right.

If you really want to have your sox blown off, go to Great Bay or Clio, $$$ but amazing seafood. These places are not for the Scrod Squad.

Go past Woodmans about 1-2 miles up the road and go to Farnhams......Blows Woodmans away.

Best Fried Clams around

No Name restaurant is familiar to me. I haven't been there for ten years.
Lobster Shack in Rockport is excellent.

No Name is still the same, I can walk there from work.

Although they don't usually unlock my cell door too often.;) ;)

me too............but, i dunno, that place can be hit or miss....I like the mom and pop places for seafood, best i have had on the south shore is Jake's Seafood in Hull......always dynamite...

So far have not have a "miss' at No name..

Jakes----I've heard its good, but tried to get a couple of times but the wait was toooooo long. I'll get there sooner or later.

No name was once the place to go. I don't know what its like now as I never get up there anymore. I used to like how people went to Jimmy's or Pier 4 and spent ten times as much for seafood that was no where near as good as at the No Name. No Name had zero 'Atmosphere" you were jammed in right next to people you didn't know (liek at a table for 6 yhere might be six people who never saw eachother before but they all sat like they had come together) but the food was the best and we could afford it , even as students. I remember they had a broiled fishermans platter. In those days , a fisherman's platter was fried in 99% of the world I knew but there you could get all the same goodies in a dish broiled in butter. They use to serve these little squids who's tenticles would soak up the butter as if they were strands of spaghetti not the tenticles. YUMMM!! I can't imagine the food is any less good although I bet it is a mob scene now that its so famous. Man I'm hungry just thinking about it!!! :)

Like previously posted, the place gets jammed with bus loads of people..I do go and for the most part it is still pretty good. I just enjoy watching the yuppies faces when they walk in, and when they leave they whip out thier credit card and the lady at thr register says, "sorry,cash only" :laughs: :laughs: :laughs:

oh man, saltheart, when you just describe about the no name restaurant, i feel like i want to take a girl and bring her there out on a date tonight....:D

Go for it Joe!! As a bonus , remember good seafood makes them horny!!! :)

Order Oysters for her (if she likes them of course)

The causeway up in glouceter acrosss from yankee fleet has the best fried fish anywhere on earth. As far as broiled or raw bar it's hard to beat turners in melrose square on main st. santini
