If you like seafood, you'll love Chowder Pot IV. The service is excellent, and they now have call ahead seating, which is very much appreciated. The best part is the great food. The salads are good, the bread is delicious, and the meals are out of this world. They also have fun dinner shows, for those who are interested. more

I have eaten here many times over the past 10 years, and it generally is above average when it comes to seafood. To begin with, the luncheon menu offers slightly smaller portions at greatly reduced prices which is a real bargain. I can usually get out of there at lunch for two at $35-$40 dollars. The dinner menu can be... more
