Claws - Rockland

Fortunately, we drove past this place and saw that the restaurant was pretty busy so we stopped for lunch. The service was pretty fast even though they were busy. The food was served hot fresh and it was delicious. The portions of the fish were sufficient for 2 persons. The corn was hot and sweet. Overall experience was excellent and will return.

Really great place! Great view and friendly staff. The prices were quite reasonable for seafood. Very recommended to check this place if you? back from the beaten path. The lobster dinner at $36 comes with a ton including steamer corn, biscuit and more. Also recommend the fish tacos.

The food was great. The best coleslaw in Maine. The blueberry biscuit is unique. They serve the corn boiled in the husk. Overall makes it all quite memorable. I ordered my lobster lazy style did not regret it.

Claws is an institution that you can not miss. As a local to the Midcoast I look forward to when they open for the season and get pretty bummed when it?s the last week and it?s convenient location makes it hard not to stop on a more regular basis whenever I?m driving by. The views are outstanding and it?s an excellent place to wait for the ferry to Vinalhaven or North Haven because you can see the ferry enter the harbor just past the breakwater/lighthouse. The menu is just large enough to have everything you would want, without doing too much. If you?re looking for seafood on the coast this is it. Either boiled or fried, the selection is there. Voted best lobster roll in consecutive years I can understand why (options and amazing quality. This particular visit I took my mom out for a friend haddock sandwich perfectly cooked, delicious batter, not greasy and complimented by a buttery bun and the freshest veg. The lobster Rangoon was 10/10 and I will be getting them more often now that I?ve tasted how incredible they are the dipping sauce was zesty and delicious. Once you order at the window (there is usually a lengthy line so be patient and don?t complain it?s worth the wait to order you can choose your own seating on the deck that is partially covered, but very open air. It?s certainly nice to be able to wait with such an incredible view, and they give you a little toy/plastic lobster with your order on it to give it that fun authentic summer in Maine feel. Highly recommend for everyone of all ages and group size. Food comes out fast, fresh, and staff is very friendly, accommodating and is one of my favorite places in all of Maine. 10/10 ??

Excellent location, service and food. Great price for a lobster dinner. Lobster roll had a great amount of lobster, mom loved the coleslaw. Nice clean bathrooms. We had no problem parking as it wasn't quite summer tourist season yet.
