Twin Seafood

Their lobster rolls are really solid. Not only the traditional hot dog bun — but I like that it’s more of a sandwich. Plenty of nice cold lobster, just a touch of mayo. Comes with decent fries, too. I’ve only ordered to-​go, but their deck looks lovely!

This place is the best around. Everything is fresh. The price fair for what you get. John the owner catered 100 people for our company JPI. Lobster boil. Steak. cole slaw. Jumbo shrimp.salad. it was awesome. I can’t say enough about being how well he treated everyone. If your around Acton. Stop by and tell John Chuck T sent you.

Really fresh seafood and really nice staff!

I ordered a piece of salmon today to put on a salad that I had made from home. When I called to order, the gentleman that picked up the phone seemed aggravated that I didn’t know what a lunch portion of grilled salmon was, even though it wasn’t on the menu. I went to pick up my order and was charged $ 10.00, got back and opened the box to see a small piece of fish. I was curious so I weighed it on my food scale, it ended up being 3.8oz.
I called to see if I was charged correctly and accidentally called the Concord location. They said the piece of COOKED fish should be AT LEAST 6oz. I was then transferred to the Acton location where they told me they weigh the raw fish at 6oz first and then cook it. The phone call was not helpful at all and it was almost like I was being told «it is what it is».
It was very good, so I am not giving one star, but it is ridiculous that I paid $ 10.00 for 3.8oz of fish. If the fish loses 2oz of water after being cooked, and your lunch portion is supposed to be 6oz of cooked fish, then maybe weigh the raw fish at 8oz? Won’t go back here.

The freshest seafood available, served with no frills or embellishments, just delicious food. Their chowder is great, their captain’s platter has it all, and they make everything to order. Can’t beat their prices, either.

Our go-​to for al fresco summer dinners & BYOB. Grilled & fried seafood can’t be beat. Too bad that the lobster roll on the menu is from frozen stuff– They sell cooked & shucked lobster by the lb & it is amazing for rolls @ home… Should use this on the menu!

No frills place to go for fresh seafood. Although I thought the fish and chips were not extraordinary, by husband loved the clam chowder and his fisherman’s platter. This was the second time we went to Twin Seafood and this time we went with friends One friend had the oysters which they thought were very good. Shrimp cocktail was gobbled up quickly! It was a nice summer night so we enjoyed sitting outside sipping the wine we brought with us. I would have given only a 3.5 star review based on my meal. But, my friends were raving about their food, so I went with the 4 stars!

Generally this seems like a good place, and seemingly they’re a decent fishmonger, but frankly almost everything we ordered was disappointing. The clam chowder was not — it received high marks from my kids. Yet the Grilled Swordfish was very dry and overcooked. It looked like it was «pre-​chewed» but I am hoping it had just stuck to the grill and they scraped it off. The Clam Roll was on a thick/​tough Hard Roll (so had to throw out the bread and eat the clams) and the Chicken Strips were just generic and frozen, but the kids didn’t complain. The steamers didn’t taste fresh and the butter was unsalted — but weren’t horrible and indeed we ate them all. It is not a *bad* place per se, but our experience was subpar and we will not be returning.

I have liked the food here, but it’s so poorly run, it’s too stressful to even try to order.
I’ve only been able to get the Acton location to pick up the phone about half the time. And now I’ve read reviews here that they are there — they just don’t feel like answering. Nice.
I’ve tried ordering in person, and they actually didn’t call my name when the order was ready, they «forgot.» Rude and careless.
I don’t recommend it. Go somewhere where they actually are willing to let you make an order.

Good burgers and fried seafood. The onion rings are excellent. I had a special spicy fish sandwich that was bland. It was a Saturday afternoon and not very busy, but the woman at the register wasn’t really up for answering questions or providing any help. Definitely not worth driving to, there are lots of better similar joints… but good enough if you are nearby.

Fresh and tastey lunch. I misread their menu, and ordered something they normally don’t have. They checked with me and made what I wanted from scratch anyway. Very positive experience.

I phoned repeatedly to place a pick up order, no answer. I decided to make the drive. I was promptly greeted by an unsmiling cashier, and placed my order. I waited in the indoor dining area (there was a super cute outdoor area as well). While waiting, the phone rang, and the cashier answered it, when she hung up, she told her co-​worker, «I’m leaving it off the hook, it’s too busy». Well that explains that! The place did get hopping (fri eve, 5:30) and they definitely could have used a couple extra hands! Just one cook a cashier, and a food runner.
Foods ready, thy dont have any cocktail sauce, I’ll survive. Combo platter was surprisingly small, and scallops full of sand. I was so disappointed! Shrimp was good, fries soggy. I are them right away, so they shouldn’t have been. I was underwhelmed for sure, I may try it again at a less busy time.

Stopped in May 3^rd, around 1:30 for fried clams, someone said they were good. What a disappointment, what we got was soggy, greasy, chewy, old fried clams with onions rings that were stuck together in grease. It was pitiful. Its now Monday and my stomach is still bothering me. Don’t waste your $$s– one of the worst meals I have ever had.

It’s not a white table cloth type of place. But if you just want a really nice grilled or broiled piece of fresh fish and good fries, this is the place to go.

Great spot. My husband and I first came this past summer and we loved the outdoor space they have for their customers to eat outside. Creature of habit, I usually tend to go for spicy, and got the buffalo chicken sandwich. Yum!

I LOVE this place! I actually got the same thing every day for a week at one point, before having to reign myself in! I love their grilled scallops and their sweet potato fries are amazing– its super cute and has outdoor seating which is dog friendly :)

My wife and I had the pleasure of grabbing lunch at Twin Seafood today. This location is cozy — about 6 tables on the inside as well as 6 or so picnic tables on the outside deck. We were served promptly and the food was absolutely outstanding. I had a clam roll — delicious, full bellied clams served on a toasted bulkie roll… which actually works better than the usual New England style hot dog roll. Side of onion rings were outstanding — best rings I’ve had since I used to get them as a kid up at Salisbury Beach… beer battered, thick, and not once did an onion fall out of the coating. Wife had a fish and chip plate that looked outstanding as well.
Whole meal (with a couple of sodas) set us back about $ 30. So, not too cheap — but also not ridiculously expensive. I love Legal Seafoods, but you can’t get out of there for less than $ 80 on a good day. This is an excellent local alternative. We’ll be back!

Twin seafood is small sit-​down or carry-​out fish and seafood restaurant in West Acton. It has a small kitchen and it’s menu is mostly seafood (90+%), but they also have a burger and a few other non-​seafood items available. They offer cooked and uncooked fish, lobster, and other ocean finds. In talking with the staff, I was told they bring fresh fish up from the docks downtown every day.
I have been here for lunch about a dozen times and have also picked up fish to-​go. I tend to stick with fish dishes (Salmon, Tuna, Swordfish, Haddock) all of which have been wonderful and my friends have enjoyed their chowder and oysters as well. I specifically recommend fish-​n-​chips, fish tacos, or a simple grilled fish sandwich.
There isn’t anything fancy about this place, they have seating for about 20 people in a small area, but the food is amazing and the guys behind the counter are friendly. The place has a real family feel… there is something local about it. If you are looking for fine dining, then this may not be the place for you, but if you are looking fresh, amazing fish and crustaceans, then this might be worth a visit. I think Twin Seafood is a rare find in a suburban town like Acton.

The theme song should be Grease.
Whole belly clams were swimming in it. Tried to eat and then brought it up and response was sorry you didn’t like it.
Burgers were good. Maybe it should be twin burgers

I never like to do this, but I must perform a downgrade here. Nothing is BAD, per se, but seems that food of late is not as good as it used to be. Last couple meals have definitely been less enjoyable than the first couple. The last lobster roll wasn’t even worth finishing — maybe they were’nt happy lobsters, but that thing didn’t exhibit a very fresh flavor. The rolls need a change-​up — and the cole slaw has that «came from a food service bucket» taste. I need better slaw for my fried fish — which btw, they still do very well.
The deck is great, despite the bugs. Maybe better in the Fall.
