Food is consistently good at the Legal Seafoods chain. The server we got (Corey) was especially good, and got the kitchen to make the Thai-style calamari that had been off the menu for a few years.(he knew exactly which ingredients went into the dish and that the kitchen had it). The petit lobster roll was good value for money- came with a cup of bisque or chowder, fries and coleslaw. We had a nice lunch here.

Our group of 4 started with the seasonal board which was delicious but did not come with enough toast. We were able to order more for an up charge. The burgers and sandwiches were huge and impossible to finish but were so good. Our waitress was attentive throughout. I would eat here again if I was in the area.
