J's Crab Shack - Hartford

The chowder was a weekly staple in our dinner rotation but they changed the recipe and it's awful now. Clams and lobster roll are still great but we probably won't be back. Hunting for a better chowder.

I called ahead for an order. It was misplaced and had to be filled while I waited. The person helping me at the counter couldn't have been nicer. Don't tell her boss but she snuck some extra cole slaw in my bag. I had asked for a little extra but she was very generous. So nice!

I had a yummy bay scallop roll with double coleslaw on the side. I had broken a tooth a few days earlier and had to be careful what I chose to eat. It was just right ! It was Thursday nite and good music abounded.

I went there today and Michelle was so welcoming and friendly! She was very attentive and answered all of our questions. (She deserves a raise!!!!! *hint hint manager* I had the lobster roll and it was delicious and very filling!

I almost loved everything I got here except the over fried the shrimp couldn’t eat it at all. For everyone that likes sweet wine cupcake wine sweet not dry sweet. The 2 things that I loved was the soup it was my first time having this clam chowder soup and the lobster roll kinda wish it had like a sauce mix with lobster and it would have been mouth watering.
