We don't get here often, and have always enjoyed it, but when we were there this past Saturday evening, it seemed there wasn't much choice, just the usual fish dishes they've been fixing for years. I did have a fantastic Moroccan salad, and wish I'd just added shrimp to it instead of also ordering a shrimp basket, which had some... More

We've lived in the area for over 20 years and finally made it to Squids. The food was overpriced for the quality but good. The decor is dated. The service was okay. Friends say the quality has declined over the years. Probably won't go back.

We had a mini-family reunion here, and they were super about arranging seating for our group! The food was, always, delicious, and the service excellent.

My husband and I had the fried oyster platter which had a dozen oysters with cole slaw, potatoes and all the hush puppies we could eat. Quality of the food was very good and the price was reasonable. I would recommend this place to anyone who likes seafood.
