Lena's Seafood — Restaurant in Salisbury

We came upon this little gem on our way to our hotel in Salisbury MA. Lena's has been around since 1958 and there's a reason why they are still serving loyal customers for over 65 years! It has a good variety of seafood selections like clams, shrimp, haddock, smelts, scallops and lobster but only in a lobster roll. There's half and full platters served with either fries, onion rings or coleslaw & a dinner roll; a la carte entrees and chowders. Not a fan of seafood, you can get hot dogs, hamburgers, chicken tenders or wing dings! There's something for everyone! Leave room for dessert since they have a soft serve ice cream with vanilla, chocolate or strawberry flavors. The staff is very welcoming and pleasant. The full platters were large enough for 2 to eat. The clish (clam & fish) chowder was tasty and full of clish. The lobster roll was served cold with mayonnaise smeared on top and dusted with paprika. It wasn't what I had expected but it was fresh and delicious! There's plenty of seating inside, a few tables outside and a drive thru window to place orders. Lena's also owns the mini golf place next door and if you get a hole in one, you win a free dinner! Score! The prices are reasonable for the amount of good you get. Don't pass on this place or...

Lena’s has two items that are the absolute greatest I’ve had in my life: cheeseburgers and onion rings. I’ve had a LOT of both in my life and Lena’s is #1 for both of them.

Everything else is phenomenal as well, of course - I get their haddock regularly, my wife adores their seafood special which has a little bit of everything, their hot dogs are flawless, tartar sauce is top of the line, I could go on forever. Never once have I had a bad experience at Lena’s and I’ve been going for over a decade.

The staff is always wonderful, the prices are fair, the restaurant is clean and charming, takeout is fast and convenient - this is literally everything I could ever ask out of a restaurant. The only problem I have is that they’re closed for a few months out of the year!

I highly, highly recommend Lena’s to anyone who enjoys food. They are the...

So disappointed. What has happened to Lena’s? Been going for years and shocked to see the decline this year. Pricing is outrageous! Clam plate listed at 33.95 then they add an additional $2.00 up-charge. The quality of the clams were ok. The amount you get for the price is pitiful. They even downsized the coleslaw to a tiny 2oz soufflé cup (the size you put ketchup in). We also got a 1/2 plate. Just as pitiful. Last item was a fish chowder. It was hot, seasoned well, had a ton of tiny potatoes and yet very little fish pieces. Cashier had very little personality. Customer in front of us questioned the high prices and she was very flippant with her response. For a Sunday afternoon it was not very busy. Now I understand why. Sad to cross them off my list, but won’t support the price gouging for sub-par quality, quantity...
