Poke bowl for lunch

AI Highlights
  • - Poke bowl appetizer special had about six tiny tuna squares.
  • - Customer was hungry and disappointed.

I had lunch at legal seafood on Friday and chose to have a poke bowl that was an appetizer special. It had about six tiny squares of tuna and THATS IT.

I was so hungry and basically should have sent it back. So disappointing.

User's recommendation: look out for portions

Disappointed with your restaurant in Boston Ma. Harborside

AI Highlights
  • - Lobster roll on a cold grinder roll, not the buttered one, $43.
  • - As a longtime patron, Boston's experience disappointed compared to Baltimore.

Took my family for Mothers Day weekend to your restaurant for dinner( seaport area of Boston, Ma) . I have been a patron of your restaurant throughout the East coast and speak very highly of how fantastic your food is, best seafood to be had.

However, this time I was very disappointed, all day I kept telling my family wait till you get their best lobster rolls ever. NOT THIS TIME, I ordered the lobster roll ($43.00, which I expected to pay other restaurants in the area was less, but I wanted Legal Seafoods), and I expected it to come on a nice buttered toasted roll, like the other customers were getting at their table, but nope instead I got a long grinder/sub cold not even toasted roll. When I told the waiter thats not what I ordered, I ordered a lobster roll like that gentleman at the other table had, this is not the nice buttered roll Im used to getting and he said well, you didnt ordered from that table you ordered here, which I thought was very rude, my children said mom, just eat the lobster meat and not all that bread. I cut the grinder roll in half and put all the lobster meat on 1/2 of it.

The gentleman at the other table overheard the conversation and said this is what it suppose to look like, I agreed and he said just dont pay for it.

I couldnt do that .

So now I feel that when Im paying 43.00 for a lobster roll I should have what I order.

I live in New England so Im familiar with what a lobster roll should be plus I have eaten at Legal Seafood In Baltimore on many occasions and had no problem with their lobster rolls which are perfection. Very disappointed with the Bostons restaurant and the very inconsistent with the way they serve them, because it depends on what table youre at will determine what you get.

Very disappointed customer.

  • - Was told a 45-minute wait at 11:30 Friday despite few diners.
  • - Two other couples left after being told of the wait.
  • - There was no reply to an email.

Went to King of Prussia restaurant last Friday. This was at 11:30, I asked the hostess for a table and she said they were having parties that day and we would have to wait 45 minutes.

2 other couples left when she said that. I stated that there was almost no others in the restaurant, she stated the same argument.

We went to another restaurant and on the way out we stopped back at Legal seafood and another customer, who did not have a reservation, was getting a table

I also emailed you and never got an answer. What is happening?

Food Poisoning

  • - Fell ill with vomiting and diarrhea after a sour-tasting baked combo seafood dish; they refused to refund the $250 bill.

I became violently ill after eating at the King of Prussia Legal Seafood. I asked the company to at least refund my meal (I was having dinner with my family), but they refused, saying I couldn't prove it was their food that made me sick.

I know it was because I hadn't eaten anything all day. The baked combo seafood dish I ordered tasted a little sour, but I thought it was the sherry in the sauce that I didn't like. Later that night I felt nauseous and began vomiting. I had terrible diarrhea and they both lasted for several hours.

I have never been so sick in my life. I always enjoyed eating at Legal Seafood and have taken my family there many times. Needless to say, after the way I was treated by the corporate customer relations person, I will never eat there again, nor will any of my family and friends. All they had to do was refund the cost of my dinner.

Our bill was $250. They lost good customers.
