| - With a party of seven, we did a late lunch family get together. A long table in the back of the restaurant was reserved for us. Service was very accommodating since we have two handicapped seniors. For the oyster foodies, we started with two dozens of oyster on half shell and one dozen of raw clams. The oysters came in good size versus the clams were somewhat small, guess it could be off season. Both shell fishes were very fresh, especially the oysters were of good size, and the succulent texture with the ocean brininess really made it difficult to stop eating.
Different hot dishes were order by individuals, items included: chowders, pasta, crab legs, Jambalaya; and Pan Roast etc. I had a bowl of Seafood chowder which was packed with all sorts of seafood, i.e. scallop, crab meat and shrimp in a blend of Manhattan and N.E. Clam Chowder. The taste was flavorable and it's very filling. Other members in the party were very happy and satisfied with the good food they enjoyed. It was a good time sharing with family members and friends, everybody mingled with greetings and conversed through the meal. Our server Karen and her team members were really attentive and did provide some impeccable service.
We were happy that we chose Big Al's for our preholiday meeting and we look forward to a future return in the new year to come soon!
