    We regularly go to Legal Seafood restaurant in Braintree, Ma during the holidays. We get clam chowder and lobster rolls. They have the best of both that I have found. I also belong to the Rewards program and to make it more sweet, I received a free dessert! I chose the NY cheesecake, also very good. Our waitress was Vanessa whom I have had over the years. She is great!! So professional! When I go in and am fortunate to get her for my server, we always recognize each other and are friendly. It was a special luncheon all around.

    Overall the experience was good! The waitress was not as attentive and I told her so! She apologized and tried to make it up toward the end. I didn’t like the lobster bisque. It tasted like brown gravy. Needs improvement plus it would not have hurt to actually have lobster in it! We’ve been dining at Legal’s for over 35 years! I miss some of the old dishes like the gluten free pizza with crab and white cheese! js

    Saturday afternoon lunch with family. I like Legals but usually don’t LOVE it. However, this location gave me one of the best Legal experiences I’ve had. Service was fantastic. Entire staff was attentive. And the food was really good.

    As always fish tacos were delicious but portion with toppings continue to get less and less. Price goes up, portions go down!
