This is the best fish I have found anywhere in Florida. It is very fresh, huge portions, and delicious. I lived in Boston for 13 years, and this is just like what we ate up north. It may be expensive. But, it is well worth it as a special treat to yourself and family. They pile food on your plate,... More

I was surprised that we had to put our order in at the front desk before we were seated, ... even our drink order. If you order another drink you then need to get another bill at the end or your meal. I had the seafood platter in the cajun spice, my friend had the same thing with the garlic... More

Located on the 1st floor of a fairly unassuming 2 story building, it seems the two businesses were at one time connected. There is an unused dumbwaiter at the kitchen to send foods upstairs. We did not enter the front door, so cannot post on a 1st impression except that we were very promptly greeted. The routine is to read... More

The only reason that I'm not giving this a "terrible" rating is that the fried clam strips were quite delicious - not too greasy and very tender and well seasoned. The fish, however was TOTALLY overseasoned and barely edible!

We had dinner here last night, what a treat. Whole belly clams (Ipswich) My wife had the Haddock. It was like being back in New England. The food was great, the service very friendly. The atmosphere very nice. I will be back next trip to Daytona.

The fish is fresh and one of the best places to eat.Try the gulf shrimp and you won't be sorry. Casual dining at its best. Friendly waitstaff. Don't worry about the line, it goes fast and well worth any wait. We have been here many times and always bring guests from New England. It's a taste of home with every... More

Well this is the first time at this restaurant in 2013 and likely to be the last for some time. The food wasn't truly bad but I guess our taste in restaurant meals has progressed beyond fried food. I had the whole bellied clams and my wife had the lobster salad roll. We both realized afterwards that we could have... More

I try to stay away from fried food for health reasons...but the fried shrimp and onion rings at Bostons' are the best and worth a splurge!! Yes it's a bit pricey, but they use vegetable oil and change it every day! It's often a wait in line, but worth it! We visit NSB twice a year and eat at Boston's... More

We go to Boston's every other week and always get their mate's platter fried with clam bellys. It is plenty to eat for two to share. It has 4 shrimp, 4 scallops, a bunch of fish, plenty clams, a pile of onion rings plus choice of 2 sides. What more can you ask for.

Boston's Fish House is the best seafood I have found in the area! The staff is friendly and extremely competent! The food, overflows the large plates and is ALWAYS exceptional! Boston's is on our 'must go' list, at least once a month!
