Since 1981, Legal’s clam chowder has been served at every presidential inauguration. The tender clams , fresh cream and secret herbs must be extraordinary indeed to unite our two rancorous parties.
Steamed Lobster 2 - 2.5lb, awesome. Baked cod was meh. Clam Chowder Soup ; Order in bowl is more worthy than in cup. Chocolate Warm Cake Pudding for dessert , it's fantastic!
The wood plank broiled platter is a lot of food and tasty. Can't go wrong by going raw. Paper placemats give a Red Lobster feel to what sells itself as an upscale place .
Lots of tourists in the area so consider trying one of their other locations. Great local oysters , chowder is super, can't go wrong with lobster roll ...
Fresh seafood and huge variety of gluten free options . Gluten free fried calamari , clam chowder , and rolls were available.
Lobster , their services, salmon and Thai calamari are amazing.. Popcorn shrimp Uhmmm... Every time I go to Boston I eat at Legal nice
Incredible fresh lobster in my lobster roll . It almost seemed like a sin to have mayo , but then it would have been a sin without it, too.
The best clam chowder I've ever had. And at $7.50 it makes for the perfect cheap lunch . Be forewarned; the portions here are BIG!
Soft shell crab and Stripped bass with chorizo and beans recommended....also one of the few restaurants that I found in Boston that serves Pinot Gris
The stuffed lobster and steamed mussels are GREAT ????????
Lobster is great however i could not eat properly ???? You can go with the shrimp and garlic if you like pasta .
One of the best seafood restaurants in the country ! Classic New England dishes like fried clams , & lobster rolls are a hit for good reason. Enjoy them at their best here at Legal Seafood .
Hot or chilled lobster rolls . Get both and enjoy the best lobster in Boston.
We enjoyed the food very much. The clam chowder was delicious, the rolls are always yummy. The seafood ???? tastes fresh and delicious.
The clam chowder has large chunks of clam in it. And the bread rolls come warm and with softened butter. ????
Try the Grilled Assortment: scallops , shrimp , swordfish , salmon , tuna , and two sides. Awesome value, and great to share with 3-4 ppl
Great seafood an amazing service claim chowder is so good and the seafood grilled has a espectacular fresh flavor
Uncompromised quality oysters , lobsters . Succulent medium rare tuna steak !!
Try the Grilled Swordfish Steak - Cajun spiced , center cut swordfish , mashed potatoes , crispy onions . Amazing! Lived up to and exceeded all the recommendations!

The lobster roll is my go-to every time. The perfectly buttered roll tastes like a grilled cheese !
