Carry out eat-in-the-rough spot. Separate windows for bar, ice cream. Generous portions.
We grabbed a fantastic take-out meal from Salty's on our first night in Misquamicut. It was a great way to start our week long vacay! We started off the meal with 2 orders of steamers, an order of 6 clam fritters, a fish basket (haddock), a hot buttered lobster roll, and a side of corn. I was also able to purchase an ice cold Corona. (Perfect since we hadn't done our shopping for the week.) The meal was delicious!!!! We had so much food that we enjoyed the leftovers for lunch the next day. The young service staff was friendly and helpful. The food was packaged very well...no leaking broth or butter. We enjoyed this meal so much we will be returning for dinner on our last night of this vacation...and adult "mudslide" milkshakes some time in between. Yum!
Whole Belly Clam roll is the Bomb! Sweet and delicious. A must have to kick off your summer in New England!
We have passed this clam shack many times and decided to give it a try and we were not disappointed! The items are cooked to order so you will wait a bit but it's worth the wait. The lobster roll was delicious, a perfect balance of lobster scallions mayo on a yummy crusty roll. Fries were crunchy and hot and the cole slaw was not overly dressed. The Stonington scallop roll was perfection, lightly breaded and a good portion. They have plenty of picnic tables with umbrellas so you can eat on site. All in all it was a great experience!
Pulled up on the bikes, Grabbed some clams and a beer. Nice setting, with the breachway, and bridge right there. Plenty of seating outside. A definite multiple summer stop for me.
