Legal Sea Foods

Had occasion to dine at Legal Seafood in Paramus. The service (waiter Michael was great) was excellent, food portions more than enough and quality of food was excellent.

I asked a waiter (standing next to me , counting his money/tips) for some crackers for my soup.
He said, let me find your waiter and continued counting his change until I finished my soup. ( was getting cold)
He walked away after his count . And that was it.
Guess there is no team work policy here at legal seafood.

Legal Seafood in Boston is much better. The staff at the Paramus Legal's do not acknowledge the customers. The food was not up to standard compared to Boston. For instance, food was luke warm when served, small portions, and a staff speak to only the regular people they know from the area.. Staff did not ask once is everything ok sir, or do you need more water. Last year the experience was different the staff was way more attentive to customers' requests, maybe because the general manager was there supervising the staff. Needless to say, I would not recommend the Paramus Legals Seafood. I will continue to patronize the boston Legal's when I'm in the area until I see a material change in service and decor.

My boyfriend and I were really looking forward to having dinner here and our experience was unfortunately disappointing. First off, the waitress seemed to have no personality. Throughout our visit, she never came to check up on us or ask us how we were doing. We ordered two glasses of wine, lobster bisque, and Nutty Faroe Island Salmon for entrees. We got the lobster bisque and honestly, it was pretty good! I only had two small pieces of lobster but I shrugged it off. Our entrees then came out and we had to remind the server that we still never got our wine. They quickly brought it out to us apologizing. We took a bite of our salmon and it was just AWFUL. The salmon was overcooked, it wasn't hot, and there was no taste to it at all. The description says "sautéed in a lemon caper butter sauce" but there was no trace of any lemon taste or any sort of seasoning for that matter. We actually asked for some lemon wedges so we could give the dish some flavor. We didn't even finish it because it was just unappetizing.

We really wanted to like this place but we will not be returning. For an establishment who should hold seafood in high regards, this place most definitely fell short.

The fish & chips are awful. Chewy, obviously frozen fish (or really old fresh fish that's somehow been deodorized). Unfortunately, that's the only thing that costs less than appx $30. Service was awful, too. Never again. My wife's lobster was OK, but her sides were terrible.
