Off-the-boat oysters, fried-to-order everything, peel-and-eat shrimp, and an ice-cold drink with your name on it. Right on the working waterfront — a stone's throw from the boats that caught it.
Open now · shucking 'til midnight
Today's catch · raw bar towerShucked, fried, boiled, or chilled. If it swam, we probably have it.
OystersA half-dozen on ice, mignonette, lemon, and a little dramatic shucking.
Fish & chipsBeer-battered cod, thick-cut fries, malt vinegar, tartar we make ourselves.
Lobster rollCold-water lobster, lemon-butter, split-top bun toasted in actual butter.
The boilShrimp, crab, corn, sausage, potatoes — dumped on your table. Bibs provided.
Inside the shackRight on the wharf, where the lobster boats tie up and the gulls run the place. The catch comes off the boat, the ice stays cold, and the oysters get shucked to order — that's the whole operation, and it's plenty.
Come as you are, leave smelling faintly of the sea. We wear it like a badge of honor, and after a dozen oysters and a cold one, so will you.

You cannot, sadly, eat at Smells Like Fish — there is no dock, no boil, no faint oceanic aroma. But everything you just scrolled through is extremely real, and it was built in an afternoon by WebIgniter. We build websites for restaurants that do exist — fast, mobile, and ranking on Google.
