My first time at this little neighborhood restaurant. The food is all delicious and well prepared. We will definitely be back for more! The cocktail I had wasn’t as good as I expected from the description but there was definitely plenty of choices from the menu.

Pan seared cod over lobster risotto. I kid you not... this was one of the best seafood dishes I've ever had. (I eat out a lot). Fish was lightly breaded, every piece was moist. Even the end of each piece. Risotto was nicely cooked, good cream coverage and the lobster chunks were very tender. Zero rubbery lobster.(Many places suffer from that issue.) Even the asparagus was cooked just right. Nice flavor with the perfect combo of soft on the palate, but, still had the snap of the bite. I've paid 2X the price for less portion and less quality in some high end seafood restaurants. If you haven't been to Off the Hook Bar & Grill ... I highly recommend it.

10/10!! I HIGHLY recommend going here. The atmosphere when entering is friendly and welcoming. The food is fresh and delicious, not to mention it’s served on a timely manner. When I went my server was named McKayla and she was so sweet and outgoing. She checked in on us constantly and made sure our experience was memorable. I absolutely recommend that you ask for her when visiting. Customer Service was TOP TIER !! Don’t miss out

On our Travels through Quincy, Massachusetts we stumbled upon this Hidden Gem Off the Hook Bar & Grill and decided to have dinner. The Hostess was Friendly and inviting . Our Waitress Ann was Great she took our Drink and Appetizer orders right away. Appetizers: Coconut Shrimp, Lobster Rangoon, Bowl of Clam Chowder, Fried Calamari, Dock Fries and Scallops wrapped in Bacon Everything was Delicious . Ann was bringing them out in a steady stream which worked out perfectly. Entrees: 2 Baked Stuffed Seafood Trios , Hooked Up Stuffed Flounder sides of Red Bliss Mashed Potatoes and Sauteed Spinach . So Tasty and Yummy . The place had a fun and friendly Vibe which put the dinner experience over the Top . Our Waitress Ann was Awesome as was the entire staff Highly Recommend Off the Hook Bar and Grill.

Off the Hook is a fantastic spot, and I can't say enough good things about my recent visit! The seafood was incredibly fresh, and each dish was prepared with such care. But what really made the experience special was our waiter, Cole. From the moment we sat down, Cole was attentive and friendly, making us feel right at home. He knew the menu inside and out and offered great recommendations based on our preferences. His timing was impeccable—always checking in without being intrusive. Cole's genuine enthusiasm and dedication to providing excellent service truly stood out. He made sure we had everything we needed and went above and beyond to ensure we had a memorable meal. If you visit Off the Hook, I highly recommend asking for Cole—he's a gem!

If you're in the mood for a comforting and flavorful dish, their mussel soup with vegetables is a fantastic choice! Fresh mussels, hearty vegetables, and rich broth come together for a truly satisfying meal. A must-try for seafood lovers!

I almost never write reviews, but I felt called to share my experience here. I was having a tough day and wanted to eat fish and chips in memory of my cousin, who is still alive, just no longer around. I walked in with a frown and it was immediately turned upside down from my server, Cole. He was kind, gentle, and had one of those smiles where he just scrunches his nose and makes you feel safe. He told me that everything on the menu is fresh, not frozen, and recommended every cocktail on the menu to make me feel better (it worked). The food and drinks were amazing, but it didn’t even compare to what Cole did for me. He even sat in my booth for 1 and gave me a hug, making it a booth for 2. I will definitely be back.

Came for the 5 dollar burger night. Burger was so delicious, very filling and the chips were so good. I never had “chips” like that before. It’s like a fry in a chip shape! Cole was our server and was very friendly, spent time joking around with my son!! Will definitely be back to see what other specials you guys have up your sleeves!!! Will be requesting Cole as our server!!!
