    I came here with a couple of friends on the recommendation of a co-worker who had lived in the area for a number of years. We had intended to go to the tiki bar but due to the poor weather we sat inside which was not a problem at all, until we walked inside the dining room. The first thing that struck us was the awful smell (it honestly smelt a bit like cat urine) which was unsettling but did not cause us to leave.

    After a long wait the waiter finally came over and dropped the menus on the table and walked off without introducing himself or even asking if we had wanted any drinks. A bit longer after we were able to wave down our server and ask for some drinks. Upon his return I received a bottle of coors light which had clearly had rust form under the cap, and had clearly had rusty water dripping down the side of the bottle. The fact that rust was all over the bottle did not deter our server from giving me this bottle however, something that I cannot even begin to understand from a serving standpoint.

    After we ate our mediocre at best food we left and were done with the ordeal, or so we thought. It turns out that the restaurant had charged my meal and one of my friends meals on my credit card, not a huge problem being that my friend paid me, but in terms of service, very very poor.

    I will not be returning to Davy's Locker, and judging by many of the other reviews here I would not recommend this place to anyone looking for good seafood.

    Downhill over the last several years. I grew up in the south end, and the quality deterioration is evident. Where it once was awesome for family functions and group dining, it now serves almost exclusively the elderly who are usually overheard from the next table over fondly remembering what it once was. The last several times I've gone in, it's deserted. With good reason, as each time I go in the portions are smaller and the taste is changed for the worse, as has the price. Its spectacular views and ideal placement on the peninsula right next to the stretch of beach has been its saving grace Summer after Summer. That and the fish tanks are excellent distractions for the little ones, which is why they're nearly always covered with ketchup fingerprints.

    Maybe it was just a bad night...a real bad night.  We were looking for a place we had never been to before to try some Southcoast seafood.  We are from Taunton and a drive down to New Bedford is reasonable for a good meal.

    We arrived at Davy's Locker just before 8:00 Friday night.  We had made a reservation to be on the safe side, but upon arrival we opted to wait for a seat on the upstairs outdoor patio.  The 8:00 indoor seat would have been ready, but it was an 88 degree night so dining with a sea breeze seemed only right.  This is where it all began to go afoul.  

    We were directed to go talk to the young lady in the black and white dress who said it would be a half hour so we went to the bar and had a drink.  We waited a spell and the Mrs went to make sure we hadn't been forgotten.  She was assured we were on the list.  Some more time passed then I went and asked.  I was told the table was being cleared and we could go upstairs.  It was now dark, and the upstairs does not have any lighting.  The lighting comes from a spotlight in the parking lot, so bring your night vision goggles or your flashlight app.

    The upstairs has a bar setup, but no bar.  Crikey!  It's July 4 weekend and there is an empty bar on an outdoor deck overlooking the bay.  What are you people thinking.  There is, however, some staff member standing at the bar eating and drinking a soda and not much more.  She was certainly not helpful except to put down the umbrellas.

    We were seated and we perused the very large menu.  We ordered another drink, which on the outside deck comes in plastic - not a problem for me.  It took a bit o'time for the drink to arrive.  OK, it's a holiday weekend, it could happen.

    There are plenty of items to choose from so the problem was drilling down to one rather than not being able to find something to eat.  Our server seem harried.  I cannot remember if she even told us her name.  I think she was trying to train a new staff, and Friday night July 5 at a waterfront restaurant is not when you want to be saddled with newbies.  It was now after 9:00, and the kitchen was to be closing at 9:30.  I started with a bowl of chowder and for entrees we ordered Baked Stuffed Seafood and Chef Johnny's Mozambique.

    The chowder arrived in a reasonable amount of time and it was pretty good.  It was thick enough to eat with a fork.  Hearty chowder beats briny chowder for me, hands down.  

    Then we waited.  There were three fireworks displays across the bay.  And we waited.  We talked and watched some other groups come up stairs and look around and we waited.  We were finally told the kitchen was backed up.  Our server never asked us if we wanted another drink.  

    There seemed to be a lot of milling about from servers.  I imagine the awkwardness of a.) not knowing what to do because there is no food to serve, and b.) not wanting to tell irritated patrons it is still going to be a while as it heads toward 10:00 leads to nervous milling.

    Short story long...

    Baked Stuffed Seafood - taste was good.  It's described as scallops, fish and shrimp topped with crabmeat stuffing.  I saw a shrimp and two scallops, but it was dark.  Did I mention there was no lighting on the deck.  Portion was pretty good size though, but the fish was the basis for the dish.  Baked potato and mixed vegetables were cooked adequately.

    Chef Johnny's Mozambique - perhaps from the specials menu as it is not listed on the regular menu.  Pasta overcooked.  Shrimp still had tails which is not a problem, except they were impossible to see because all daylight had long escaped at this time.

    We both left full and there is still some Mozambique to eat.  

    Not bad meals, but not a real good value.  Both entrees were priced in the mid-teens and the drinks were not inexpensive, though not outrageously priced either.  Party of two, tip and tax included about $88.

    I mentioned we were never asked if we wanted another cocktail.  We asked for a glass of water.  They offered two bottles of Poland Springs water because they ran out of ice.  Yes, I said it.  Ran out of ice on July 5 because the ice machine broke on what had been a 95 degree day.

    Maybe it was just a bad night...a really bad night.  But as bad as it was, it was worse for the people that sat next to us, but that is their story to tell.

    I really wanted to love this place. Big menu, lots of seafood options, but it mediocre all the way. Food - nothing special and was really disappointed at the "award winning" crab cake. Dry, tasteless and the sauce with it was bizarre.

    Service was poor but I'll chalk that up to the guy being new. Couldn't answer any questions other than to say I think so and had absolutely no personality (maybe he was nervous?)

    Cool view. The tiki bar looks like fun. Maybe we'll try that next time.

    Davy's has been a staple in New Bedford's South End for decades, and while still a going business, Davy's has changed over the years. When I was a kid, this was THE place to go for quality food and atmosphere.

    Not that it is bad now, but it is not the same...

    I last visited about a week ago, I had a steak and baked stuffed shrimp. I asked for medium, got closer to well done. Not pink in the middle, but cooked right through. The shrimp were relatively small compared to other Resturaunt offerings in the same price range.

    It is not like I won't eat there anymore, it is not bad, but it is just not great, and for the money, there are other quality options out there. Davy's is a great place for out of town guests, the location on the water is great!

    I like going to Davy's every once in a while.  Nice place to go for drinks at the Tiki Bar or on that upper deck area.  I had fish and chips, and some crabcakes the other night and it was all very good.  Service was friendly.

    My husband and I went to Davy's last evening.  It was not that great.  I had a tasteless lobster roll which was mushy and not fresh.  My husband had the seafood platter, 3 fried clams with the bellies as big as golf balls, the piece of fish was just a 2x2" square,  the few scallops and shrimp he had where ok.
    The waitress was fine.
    We won't be back there are to many good seafood places in and around the New Bedford area to go to.

    After recently being referred to Davy's locker by my mother while visiting New Bedford, I now will trust her her more often. Davy's locker's location was the first thing that drew me in, but as I know from recent experiences,  just because you have a great location doesn't mean you have great food, but this was not the case. Right off the bat we had a great waiter who tended to our every need and allowed us to sit where we please and had no problem answering any questions. Although the mussels I ordered had a little too much citrus and white wine in the sauce, the quality of the mussels made me over look any of these small mistakes. Next to arrive to the table were the their award winning crab cakes and a cup of their delicious clam chowder, both of which i was eager to eat every bite. What really topped off the meal was deciding to move to their new upper deck to enjoy a beautiful New England day, right on the water, and a glass of Sam Adams summer. I would highly recommend this place to anyone either looking for some great seafood or a wonderful place to enjoy a drink by the water.

    Every time I come here I am not disappointed. The seafood is good, and they have a fairly large menu with many different ways to get what you want. Their specials menu is what you want to order from though, as they are usually local food with a tasty flair.

    I went there for my Birthday dinner...Big Huge disappointment..I have not been there in at least 6 years but what the heck has happened to the quality and taste of the food...The waiter was really nice and efficient..I ordered lazy man's lobster that was suppose to be in a crab stuffing..The portion size was small, it had about 5 pieces of lobster and no hint of crab in the stuffing..All I could taste was oregano,,It was sooo dry..The baked potato was hard...My brother left hungry after eating his 6 scallops for over $15.00!  I went out today and bought a fresh lobster and boiled it just so I can say I actually had my birthday lobser...What has happened to the Davy's Locker I use to enjoy???

    I have been going to Davy's Locker for a number of years when I am in the area.  I grew up in Dartmouth and visit about once a year.  I really love fried clams, but Colorado doesn't know how to do them authentically.  Davy's does.  Nicely breaded and not overcooked, and with the bellies on!  Yes, this is the only way to eat them.  So when I'm near here, I have to get the fried clams.
    OK, now the downside.  This last visit I ordered the littlenecks raw.  They must have been sitting in the fridge because there was hardly any salt water in them.  And the shucker must not know how to shuck.  They were partially still connected to the shell.  This is a major mistake and any self respecting shucker knows this.  They are supposed to just slide off the shell and down they go.  I had to battle these little suckers to get them off the shell.  This is really bad.  Several days later we were at a well known seafood place in Boston and those oysters just slid off the shell with salt water.
    The Tiki bar can be fun.  Have a drink and watch a few boats go by.  It is not by any docks so you get to see the boat channel.  Fishing boats, a sailboat, the ferry to Martha's Vineyard.  That kind of stuff.  
    My wife's dish was fine.
    So a mixed review with a 5 for fried clams, 1 for raw bar.

    We stopped here for a snack while driving through New Bedford.  We were seated immediately and brought drinks shortly after.  Service is slow at the waterfront Tiki bar as everything was run out from the main restaurant.  

    While the view is beautiful, I had two gripes.  First, the Corona my mom ordered came in a can.  I didn't even know that Corona came in a can, and it is not easy to get a lime in there.  Second, the clam fritters are all breading and very dry.

    The crab cakes we had were nice, and the servers friendly, but it isn't enough to bring me back.

    Whenever we come to New Bedford, we stop at Davy's Locker. It's a family tradition. We used to do it for the clam chowder. Now we do it for the fish chowder. It is hands down the best fish chowder in the world. Yes, the reason for that is, probably, that it is loaded with butter-but it is not filled with potatoes or bread crumbs. It has tons of fish meat in it. It is thick and creamy and yummy. And the clam chowder is still pretty good.

    As for everything else, the place has been uneven as the reviews here indicate. But it's a fish restaurant. You can't go wrong with classics like fish and chips, sautéed sole, grilled anything.

    And there appears to be a new chef doing a bit fancier menu. I had Mediterranean scallops, which involved roasted tomatoes, spinach, and feta. Excellent! And not standard seafood restaurant fare. I hope they keep it up.

    This evening (02 July 2012) my wife and I went for the advertised appetizer special...1/2 priced from 7 to 11.  Called ahead to see if it was in effect and was told yes!  Arrived, parked and decided on the Tiki Bar area as it looked inviting and the weather was perfect for harbor viewing.  Asked about the special just to be sure and was told it applied only to the upper-deck on the main restaurant as the Tiki bar was a separate operation.  So we ordered drinks (Margarita and Bloody Mary) and asked for seating at the upper-deck.  Sulley took very good care of us in this regard and the waitress who served our drinks was sociable and friendly..A+.   When we were called that our upper-deck seats were ready we were told we could not carry our drinks there because it is a separate liquor license!  Ok...chugged the drinks, paid the bill...($16 plus tip = $20) and proceeded to the upper-deck.  Again, the servers were great!  Friendly and engaging and working hard as they climbed the stairs to the deck to deliver the food and drinks.  We asked about the 1/2 priced appetizers and were told it applied to all the appetizers, not just the specials...great!  We ordered 2 glasses of house Cabernet, a cup of fish chowder, cup of clam chowder, mussels,  clams casino and oysters Rockefeller.  The wine was fine.  The fish chowder was barely warm, mushy, paste-like, too thick and so-so taste-wise.  The clam chowder was a disgrace for this seafood community...too thick...no clams and a potato or two.  The mussels were OK but the broth and mussels were not warm and they had lots of chopped raw red peppers which just didn't work for this dish.  The clams casino were mediocre with lots of stuffing, small square of bacon and seemed no better than frozen and reheated/microwaved.  The Oysters Rockefeller unfortunately did nothing to improve this experience.  They were too moist, undercooked with a over abundance of what can only be described as canned spinach dumped on top.

    On top of all this, when the bill arrived it did not reflect the 1/2 price on the appetizers.  When I told our server that we understood that there was a special effective from 7 to 11 she responded "I'll have to check with Sulley"   She returned with a corrected bill but when pressed for an explanation she said they never know when there is a special in effect.  She continued that "they only acknowledge it when a customer inquires."   Our $44 bill was adjusted to $28 and we left an ample tip as the server was responsive to our needs, honest and hard working.    Sulley...........if you are the manager you need to square away your operation or get the real management to do something.  You have a magnificent setting, wonderful staff but a sorely lacking kitchen not to mention a disjointed and disconnected advertising/presentation process.  
    Great location.  Horrible appetizers.  Had to fight for the deal of the night.  Not a good experience.  Will not be back for another few years.  We live across the harbor.

    As someone who grew up in New Bedford (though has since relocated to Boston), I've been going back down to Davy's for many years due to the incredible food and awesome bay-side location. I especially like eating outdoors in the summer, with the ocean just feet away.

    Their New England clam chowder is tops in the world as far as I'm concerned.

    My favorite entree at Davy's is the Broiled Cape Scallops dish -- large fresh sea scallops lightly breaded and broiled in lots of butter, served with rice pilaf. Davy's super-rich Lazy Lobster and spicy  Shrimp Mozambique are also extremely delicious.

    Their standard vegetable sides are straight out of the 1950s, bland, and don't do a whole lot for me -- whether it is their pickled beets, butternut squash, or cole slaw, it usually remains uneaten on my plate. The quality of everything else more than makes up for this though.

    Unfortunately, the huge problem with Davy's (and what keeps them from being a "5" in my book) is that the service is utterly atrocious, as most people who go there frequently will tell you. This has always been the biggest problem with Davy's for years. I feel neglected most times I go. Reservations don't seem to matter much, as I end up waiting up to an hour or more on busy days (like Mother's Day, Easter, etc.), even with reservations. Staff can sometimes even be rude. Lots of older waitresses who have been there for years who are highly mistake-prone. I wonder how these people keep their jobs, because everyone I know complains about the service at this place.

    My best suggestion is to sit at the bar, as the bartenders are generally friendly, and on top of things, unlike the servers.

    Hmmmm... well, I can understand why my grandparents love this place. New Bedford doesn't have much going on... the food was OK... and the prices were cheap. But the drinks were disgusting... think nightclub type cocktails during the day. It's an early bird special type place. The service was slow. They don't allow pets on the patio. I could go on... but, I won't...

    First what a great view of the outer New Bedford harbor and Butler Flats light house. Sitting at the outdoor at the tiki bar was relaxing and enjoyable watching the boating activity on the water. There were several drawbacks I personally feel paying $5 for a lukewarm can of beer was a bit much plus the service was slow unless you were friends of the staff. This didn't distract us from the great afternoon. Moving from the bar to table was a mistake. There was a limited menu with everything marked up. In addition we had to listen to "Al Bundy talk about his 3 touchdowns in 1 game". My order of fish & chips was good but nothing special.

    I went with a friend that spoke highly of Davy's Locker. So we went about a week ago.  It was pretty much an horrible experience.  The service was horrible and the food wasn't good at all.  The shrimp cocktail looked like it was sitting out of the fridge for awhile.  We had to pick out the shrimp's poop (not de-veined).  We didn't finish them.  I had the steamed clams and they were NASTY.  Full of sand and grit and did not taste fresh at all.  My friend got a lobster roll which was pretty small.  Our waitress seemed to have an attitude when we asked for napkins or if I wanted more water.  We asked for our check and 15 minutes later she came back asking if we needed anything else.  I said we would like the check, she delivered the check while waiting for us to pay her.

    Okay yelpers here's the deal. My boyfriend and I took a trip out to New Bedford to check out some antique shops since there are a few very large warehouses in New Bedford. Come to find out Davy's Locker is pretty much the only restaurant in the area that doesn't look cockroach infested.

    We went on a Thursday around 5:00pm and the place was empty save a couple of old timers who seemed to be pretty dissatisfied with the place. We decided to ignore these red flags and dine at this tacky ocean side sea food joint anyway.

    The waiter looked like he was on parole straight out of jail and treated us like we were bothering him. He would just lurk behind the bar with the other staff and stare at us, it was quite creepy. He asked if I wanted something wrapped up while I was drinking my water and I said, "Oh no I'm still eating" so he didn't respond and slinked off like I was rude to him. He placed our food down in front of us like it was slop... which adds some evidence to my prison theory.

    Now the food was piss poor at best. I ordered the clam chowder thinking it's a seafood restaurant you can't go wrong with clam chowder. It tasted like the butter used to dip lobster in and was all coagulated on top as if it had been sitting out after being heated for too long. They didn't even bother to stir it for me. The waiter threw the oyster crackers at me too which I just laughed off... at this point the horrible service and food was starting to become a joke between my boyfriend and myself.

    My boyfriend ordered this elaborate shrimp dish and the price was a lot more than the portion accounted for. He got a really small portion and it wasn't even that tasty to make up for it.

    There was an old couple sitting near our table and the waitress got their order wrong... she proceeded to go complain about them to the other staff but she was standing no more than 10 feet away. It was so rude. This same waitress could be heard yelling in the back room "I HATE YOU!!!" to another employee and stormed out into the restaurant fuming. I really think everyone working here should be replaced with people who are more amiable and know what customer service is.

    There was no music playing and I felt like everything I said could be heard by everybody in the restaurant (so about 8 people maybe).

    Skip this place. If you are really old and senile maybe you will like it but it was one of the worst dinners I've ever had at a seafood restaurant by the ocean. The food was mediocre at best and way too expensive and the service was absolutely terrible.

    They did have fish tanks for windows in the bathroom though, my boyfriend seemed to like that aspect.

    Never again Davy's Locker, never again.

    Nice server. He hadn't tried the scallop dish I inquired about but went along with saying he heard it was good. That is a matter of questionable opinion. The description of this dish was scollops in a seafood bisque topped with a layer of puff pastry. The seafood bisque was more like a cheesy cream soup and the puff pastry was 2 triangles of what tasted like Pillsbury croissants. So in that aspect I was a bit disappointed. With that said the scallops themselves were cooked well and fresh.
    My companion  on the other hand ordered scallops a Pietra (something like that) which was delicious. Prepared with sauteed spinach, garlic, tomatoes and pine nut and tossed over a bed of linguine. I believe it was a white wine based sauce. Very nice flavor.
    I hear this place is great in the summer. Has a tiki hutch bar out back along side the bay. Since I visited in dead of winter I was confined to their indoor mix mosh decor. There are salt water aquariums throughout the restaurant which liven the place up. Unfortunately it is lined in 1980s mall pattern carpet. As a friend put it "a bit institutional looking."
    With all that being said i will go back and give a second chance. They have a very extensive list of scallop dishes. I would like to try the jerk scallops on my next visit. But i think ill wait till the summer.
    PS.... had chocolate cake..... not worth the $6 they charge. The cake was very dry.

    Bad service, nice food, not much more to say.  We felt like we were forgotten by our waiter probably because the establishment is understaffed or poorly trained.  The butternut squash is very sweet in a good way and m my Scrod Florentine was quite yummy!  My girlfriend and her father's meals were also delicious.  She ordered Baked Sole and he ordered fried clams.  This 2-star review is because of the service.  The prices are also very fair.  $15 for for most fish dishes (with discounts for earlybirds) and $19 for the baked clams make Davy's Locker pretty OK.  

    1-star for service, 4-stars for the meal, I'll even it to about 2.5 stars.

    I am a native to the area and have been eating here every once in a wile since I was a child.

    A friend and I ate outside at the Tiki Bar.  There is a limited menu available and they do not offer you rolls out there.  

    We ordered Clams Casino, Baked Potato Skins,  A Lobster Roll with French Fries and A Salmon Caesar Salad.

    The waitress in the long floral dress was absolutely outstanding.  She had a pleasant demeanor the entire time, and was extremely attentive.

    We had two virgin strawberry daquiri.  They are served in a plastic cup, as the Tiki Bar is on a cement dock over the water and can be rather windy.

    Water is only available bottled.  $$

    On a thursday night at dinner time, there was a long wait for our food, but that's understandable due to the time of day, day of the week and incredible weather.

    The clams casino were very tasty.

    The potato skins are actually potato WEDGES sprinkled with a dab of cheese on each.  Accompanied by one small plastic sample cup of sour cream.  Not at all what we expected.  

    The lobster roll was small-average sized.  There was LOTS of claw meat, which was an awesome plus.  Unfortunately, they put chopped CELERY in the lobster roll, such as one would do when making tuna salad.  I didn't think the celery was complimentary to the mellow taste of the lobster meat.

    The fries were average but yummy.

    The salmon was divine and the ceasar salad it arrived resting upon was excellent as well.

    The bill came to $60 with tip.

    I went to Davy's Locker for the first time today. My friend used to go frequently with her father and recommended it. We had a very tasty, fresh seafood lunch, and the price was right, too.

    As another reviewer mentioned, the rolls were nothing special. I was impressed with all the scallop and shrimp lunch specials; how could we go wrong? I had the Scallops Pietro - I asked for them to be very lightly sauced/oiled and the dish came as requested. Very flavorful, fresh and ample - really too much for lunch. My friend had her favorite, Shrimp P-something (I can' remember the exact name) - Shrimp in a Rockefeller sauce. She said it was great. Hers came with 2 sides; mine with pasta and one side. Excellent service. We each had (nonalcoholic) drinks and we each left with enough food for another lunch. The bill was $27.

    Based on my one experience, I would return to Davy's Locker.

    We were seated right away with smiles. The waiter spent a lot of time with us and took good care of us.

    I ordered the fried clams (whole) with fries lunch special. I enjoyed every bite.

    Parking is not hard as they have a private lot. You can watch the ocean and the boats as you enjoy your dinner. It's too bad they aren't closer to the water, but it's probably due to flooding.

    It was rather empty at lunch, which is how I like it.

    I had some dirty monkey martini and it had little flavor. If you want to get a buzz immediately, this is for you. I prefer alcoholic drinks with interesting flavors and not necessarily that straight up liquor taste. I will pass on martini's here next time.

    Advice to the weary: Order simple dishes and drinks. Go complex, and they will screw it up. They have quite a varied menu, but my advice to them is to cut down the options and concentrate on making those dishes amazing.

    They do have good value for the price.

    An excellent fish chowder, sweet-oniony and fine-textured. A truly distinctive chowder.

    The clam chowder is similar, but it the sweet, fine-textured thing doesn't work as well with that.

    Davy's is a seafood institution in New Bedford, but I can't really recommend it. Although the garlic shimp and mussels were good, I thought the Lazy Man's Lobster and the steak were sub par.  Nothing I had was close to exceptional.  I don't really have any desire to go back except to maybe grab a drink at the bar which is a cool spot with a waterfront view. I do have to note that my rating would have been 2.5 stars, but I rounded up because the service was very good.

    I'm thinking if you're serious about Seafood in this area, you should go to The Back Eddy.

    This place used to be the best seafood restaurant for miles around.  Now, its a shell of its formal self.  Avoid at all counts, unless you are into unintentional sushi!

    Last time I visited, was in 2002 and haven't been back since. My dad and I waited for an hour and a half to get our food. We tried their clam fritters ,and they were just breading, very little clam.

    Well I probably have a terrible opinion of the place because I don't eat seafood. But as a non-seafood eater, I thought the place was kind of mediocre. Not much to pick from if you don't like seafood. I just had a chicken ceasar salad.
    It has a sort of pricey looking atmosphere when you enter. There's a fish tank and nice tables.. although we just walked in, in tshirts and jeans. There was a tiki deck outside where you could just order drinks but not all of my party was over 21 so we didn't head out there.
    I was tricked into eating squid while I was here, and maybe that dampered my opinion as well.

    Davy's Locker has some of the freshest fish you can get in New Bedford.  They are located right on the water so you know the freshest catch is coming here everyday.
    I came here for lunch with a friend and his wife, and also brought my parents here for an early Sunday dinner (4ish) when they visited me in August.  Both times the food was very good.  The crab cakes are fantastic.  The scallops are also very good.  When I visited with my parents I got a pasta dish, which was a mistake because it was very oily.  Unfortunately that has been my experience with pasta dishes at several New England seafood restaurants -- I should know better by now.
    As mentioned by other reviewers the outside of this place looks like nothing special.  It kinda looks like a shack on the water.  The inside is nicer; they have made an effort to dress up the place.

    Went here for a business lunch while at a client, not too bad. The rolls are pretty boring, the food isn't too bad though. i had the baked haddock, which came sort of like a fish jambalaya, with rice pilaf. Really creamy and good flavor. Everyone else liked their food, ranging from fish and chips to scallops and salad. overall, while i give my dish four stars, this was an average experience in terms of service, decor, and everything else.

    Davy's locker is an ocean side, somewhat hip and cool restaurant .

    From the outside of the seaside seafood restaurant, you think it's just some old place that has been shut down for years. But no, it's still pretty popular!

    Davy's Locker has pizza, fish, and pasta. When I went, I had the meat lover's pizza. It was okay. But the homemade fries were really good. Apparently, from what I overheard, it has pretty good fish too.

    The prices are pretty expensive. For a plate of fish, it was something like 25 to 30 bucks. The whole pizza for 1 is about 15 bucks.

    The atmosphere was really nice too. I went on a Winter night, so I didn't eat outside. I ate in the dining room inside which had a gigantic fish tank in the middle of it.

    The waitress was a little half-assed. She went missing after we got out entrees. .
