   The shrimp and scallops were overcooked, service was slow, and the waitress was not trained on the menu or opening wine. Management camera over apologized and asked us to give them a second chance—we will try again when it's not a night we have show tickets.

   This week, I tried the new Rockfish special, and I have to say that its flavor was to die for. It was paired with perfect seasoned mashed potatoes and a flavorful tomato salad...just simply amazing. As always, the environment was great that evening. My server, Ms. Jordan was awesome and is the one that recommended the Rockfish dish to me, and just like her service, it was amazing, as I stated. Jordan was extremely professional and ensured that I had everything I needed. She's definitely a true professional at her job. I truly recommend anyone to try Legal Seafood.

   My experience at Legal Seafood was amazing. The service was great and the food was excellent. I went for lunch today and had their Lobster Roll, French Fries, and Clam Chowder combination for a great price. The temperature of the food was perfect, and the flavor was delicious. Legal Seafood is definitely a place anyone who loves great seafood and sushi should try.

   I had the clam chowder which was a little salty and the coconut shrimp was a little cold and not fried well. I thought it was strange that when the waitress brought out the coconut shrimp, she said be careful the plate is hot.

   The special lunch combo with lobster roll was outstanding. All three of us ordered it but one ordered it hot with butter instead of cold with a mayo sauce. Both were absolutely delicious. The chowder was loaded with clams and the thickened broth had a hint of Sherry. The combo also included crispy fries and creamy Cole slaw. Since it was a birthday celebration we ordered the chocolate pudding cake that came with ice cream ,whipped cream, and a coconut crisp. All adorned with sprinkles and drizzled with chocolate syrup. It blew our minds. Yummy is a one word call for the meal.

    The food was good but the portions were small especially considering the price. Maybe the dishes we chose were not the highlights, but even the raw oysters were small rather than plump. The service was excellent.
