Anna HiderJuly 7, 2016I don't eat fish but they have some nice options for non-pescatarians: I've had elotes and a fried chicken sandwich in the past and been satisfied
Preeti GharpureJune 7, 2013Beautiful spot in cinci! Great ambiance and staff. The peel and eat shrimp are to die for. The whole lobster is yummy as well. Definitely will be back!
Oyster mania Thursdays. Enough said. The savory slushie topping for the oysters is amazing!!!
Jason JavoskyMarch 8, 2013My experience was great regardless of what others say. Food was well prepared, and the quality and freshness very reasonably priced, being that good seafood is not cheap.
LaurenMay 26, 2013Try the peel and eat shrimp as an appetizer - but make sure you ask for extra napkins. Also, the fish and chips may be the city's best.
Huge & delicious lobster rolls when they're in season. $1 oysters on Thursdays go fast so get there early.
Nick AltieriMay 4, 2013The best seafood in the city and always fresh. Happy hour specials on oysters and beer make the Anchor even better.
Emily ZollerMarch 23, 2013So good. Seafood is fresh and the salads are amazing. Try the watercress with beets, pistachios and goat cheese.
Lucille FisherMay 29, 2015Great seafood. Specials on oysters & beer on Thursdays. Stand out dishes: lobster bisque, octopus, & fried smelt. The lobster rolls were disappointing specially at $31 a roll! Luke's in NYC is better.
Allison WolffNovember 6, 2012Here's my tip...overpriced and not great. Soggy cod sandwich and runny clam chowder topped by horrible service. Wouldn't go back.

"Bartenders are super nice. The Sofia on tap is a great unfiltered beer with a hint of pineapple. I'd definitely recommend it!"
