Just took my girlfriend here for lunch today. She had the crab cake sandwich and I had the lobster roll platter. Both were excellent. The service was great. The owner walked around and spoke with customers to check on our meal. The restaurant has a gift shop and is the quintisential cape cod restaurant enjoyed by locals and tourists alike.... More

My family and I have been going for years to Moby Dick's. This restaurant is owned by a local Wellfleet family, and it's a tradition in my family to visit Moby's during the summer. The owners, Todd and Migs, are great people -- friendly, helpful, down-to-earth. And the food is consistently great. No, it's not fancy -- this is not... More

This is in response to the posting by "pabell" on May 10, 2013. I find it very hard to believe that the food you received was as bad as you claim. My family and I have been going to Moby's more times than we can count and every time our meal was perfect. The owners, Todd and Mignion, take great... More

We would rate this place the worst restaurant in town. We stopped for a quick bathroom break and decided to get a clam roll to go. I have been going ever since. The roll was only half toasted on one side and the clams were under cooked and mealy. A total waste at $11.99. We won't go back.

We came upon this place while driving to ptown. I had a mass burger since I don't eat seafood. It was big, good but average in taste. The bun was doughy but good. Husband had the lobster roll plate which he said was very good. Overall for 2 meals and 2 drinks it was $34. The owners were very nice... More

We stopped in for lunch on the way back from Provincetown. So happy we did! I had great broiled cod tacos and my husband had a delicious grilled salmon sandwich.

We can't wait for our first lobster of the season at Moby Dick's. It's always fresh, steamed to perfection, and delicious. When we first came to Wellfleet about 16 years ago, we drove by Moby DIck's and I'll admit, we were a little skeptical. My brother, who was painting our house, decided to give them a try. He gave us... More

Every time we go to the Cape, this place is a must! The freshness of seafood will blow your mind and stomach away! We usually order mussels and 2 lobsters for 2 people. Of course – don’t forget wine or beer, and enjoy!!!! Love this place! Wish it was a location in NYC!

There is often a long line to wait for your turn to order your food; but, it's well worth it. My family looks forward to Moby Dicks each summer. The lobster rolls and seafood are a treat. The restaurant is not fancy; but, that's part of the Cape Cod experience.
