You can`t visit Boston without trying this place, nice and original location, very unique. Good seafood, but not excellent, just a little bit too dark inside, but still a very nice experience!!!!!

Enjoyed eating at the oldest restaurant in the USA. We ordered oysters and they were good - but we are from Louisiana and use to more seasoning. Nice atmosphere.

Hadn't been to this famous restaurant in many years and usually try to avoid due to the touristy nature. But as part of a business dinner, actually had a very good time in a private room and enjoyed the fresh oysters, steamers, and clam chowder. Had the broiled seafood platter as an entree and the selection was fresh and well-prepared.... More

Wow, the best clam chowder I had while in Boston. The place is small and very busy. We were lucky and got seats at the bar, so get there early or make reservations. The food was delicious and the service was great. Definitely a must see in Boston.

I have been there 5 times and always for the boiled lobster and clam chowder with cornbread. The service is always good. the people friendly, if you want a cozier seat go upstairs or in the other room. I have eaten through out the whole restaurant and love the history that is there.
