Had the perfect lunch here on a quiet Saturday in July. Food didn’t disappoint one bit. Shrimp and Tuna tacos, calamari and a side of o-rings with two drinks for 60 before tip to the counter staff. Super reasonable! Ambience was great!
Love picking up a lobster roll or quick lunch here. Friendly and fast service, seating is outside and you pick up your order at the counter. Very fresh seafood. Small parking lot so check how busy it is before you head over.
Best seafood, exceptional service, friendly staff and wonderful ambience!! Most flavorful lobster bisque on the planet!!! Highly recommend!!!!!
Off the Hook just catered my wedding and while I hate doing the online review stuff just have to take a moment and affirm that Kris and her team is top notch in all aspects. They are attentive, caring, diligent and wonderful in every way. They went above and beyond the call of duty at every step to ensure the event was amazing from setup, service to stepping up to clean things that were not their responsibility. I am forever grateful to have had them part of my day. Oh and PS, the food was amazing from sliced tuna, sushi, raw bar, scallops, steak.. you name it!
Love it here. Pictured is the cold lobster roll which is good but the warm is my fav. The chowder’s one of my island favs.
The food here is great! It’s always fresh and delicious. I strongly recommend the scallop bisque. It makes you wonder why you don’t see it on more menus. Also, items like the lobster poutine and flounder francese round out a great menu.
THE BEST ! I highly recommend Fresh Off The Hook. It was Delicious I had the Zuppa Di pesce, it was hot, fresh and memorable. It came with the following: small Lobster tail, clams, mussels, scallops that were very white, shrimp, pasta, extra chopped up clams on top of pasta and a sprinkle of Parmigiano and a piece of bread. 34.95 and worth every penny. Oh yeah, BYO, Beer or Wine, as they don't have.
Had the fish and chips for takeout. The cod was light and crisp, delish. Plenty of good food and a very good value! Definitely headed back!!
