Excellent service. Excellent food friendly staff great atmosphere very comfortable. Highly recommend

If you have a place to go, expect to spend an extremely long time. Went there a few weeks ago, and I had two toddlers with me. We waited 15 minutes for a waitress to come for our drinks. We waited another 30 minutes before they came out with our drinks and bread, and she took our order. We waited 1 hour for our dinners to come out and the fish was stuck to the plate. I spent over $250. there, and it was like throwing it to the wind for the experience we received. The kids were tired of waiting. It wasn't just our table. I noticed the same thing at other tables. They need to train their staff better and to move quicker than a snail. This was my second experience, because I thought the first was just a bad day there. I will not go back. We ended going to Friendly's to get desert, and were served within 10 minutes.

this establishment is by far the most comfortable, bright, friendly,hospitible,delicious,clean and homelike that we have had the pleasure of frequenting for many years now. The value and the freshness of the food ,the generous potions from the bar are another reason we keep coming back----just like going home. the chef and the wait staff , the hostesses are tops. thanks to King crab, lady bisque and long John for our HOME away from home. many thanks----george & joan mcguinness

We were very disappointed with our dining experience at the Marblehead Grille. My shrimp cocktail was overcooked resulting in rubbery and dry shrimp. Three of our party of four had the lobster bake. Again, this was overcooked. The mussels had a fishy taste which contaminated the clams and lobster. All were rubbery with no flavor except the fishy residue from the mussels. Melted butter was not served with the bakes. The butter received with this entree was a diluted mixture of the butter and juices from steaming. The fourth party had the Napolean Lobster. He too, was very disappointed. The Velveeta-like cheese melted with the lobster was unattractive as well as unappetizing. I would not recommend this restaurant. Over priced with amateur cooks.

We have gone twice to this restaurant so far and have been very satisfied both times. The food is quite good, there is a lot of selection, and you get good value for what you pay. We plan on bringing our friends there for our annual New Year's Eve dinner.
