I had the blacked tuna and it was superb
Excellent seafood as usual. Stuffed shrimp was delicious and the beef tips and lump crabmeat is always a big hit. Clams casino are still the best around.
Our server was Nathan and he did an outstanding job with our party of 6! One couple was late because of traffic; Nathan recommended some appetizers. The crab dip was delicious! Our group always has special requests, coupons etc! He was very patient and took everything in stride. He has a great personality and knows the menu! We all enjoyed our dinners - surf and turf with lobster and filet mignon served with enough warm butter, lobster mac and cheese - delicious! Bourbon salmon (special) - very good! And of course, lobster bisque - outstanding! It was a very nice evening!
Always very good! My husband and I had the Oysters, Crab Norfolk, Lobster Bisque and Cioppino. Seafood is always so fresh. Service very good.
We love the Marblehead grill. It is our favorite place to go for birthdays and anniversaries. Their food is always the best and the staff is always nice and inviting.
Very pleased with the excellent preparation of fresh and tasty seafood. The New England cod was wonderful per my husband, and I was delighted with Crab Fried Rice Teriyaki with 2 skewers of several perfectly cooked large braised shrimp on top. We were also pleasantly surprised by the tasty Lobster risotto balls with lobster cheese sauce, again perfectly prepared and pleasing to the palate as an appetizer. We were seated in the bar which was peaceful at the early stages of open hours on Easter Sunday, and waited on by the bar tender. This was a bonus for us, as we prefer to be in a calmer setting, though I'm sure it ramps up, as a bar should, as the dining hours advance. Marblehead is top notch in food, service and setting no matter where you sit, and we look forward to coming back to this very welcoming place to enjoy their terrific food.
Everything was delicious and time between courses was perfect
Easter Sunday Dinner was excellent, Kenny was our waiter, he's definitely a class act,

Food and service were excellent! Love it here! The fish was incredibly fresh and our waiter was the best.
I think what made our first experience at Marblehead so wonderful was our server, Becky! She was kind, knowledgeable about the menu, and fun! She even suggested the perfect drink for me—the white sangria—it was amazing! We will definitely be back and request Becky!
Great food and service. Went there on Good Friday and it was nice.
Excellent food, service, staff is very friendly and always make sure you have what you need.
We were greeted immediately and seated within minutes. Our waitress was friendly and attentive. The food was outstanding and reasonably priced. If our daughter makes the decision to attend LaFayette College, Marblehead will be high on our list for a return visit.
Our lunch was delicious, as always. We shared the crab chowder. It was soooo good. I ordered a mojito, but no mint was available (which happens to me often) so I was offered a berry mojito with basil. I would order it again. Our server, Tina, was extremely accommodating. We always enjoy our meal at the Marblehead.
Service was excellent and food was spectacular as always!

We love Marblehead for the fact that they always have excellent staff - hostess, wait and bar. The food never disappoints and the drinks are always good too. We can't say enough about Marblehead. The rewards program is outstanding as well.
As always wonderful seafood! Neighbor friendly place, always see someone we know there!
We LOVED Kara, our server. She was very professional and friendly. She was perhaps the best waitress we have had in YEARS!!!

Food was AWESOME as usual!! Waiter was attentive & did a great job!
Service was great, food was good, front end staff were unfriendly.
There is an old adage that you don't call a plumber to do electrical work. Don't buy beef at a seafood restaurant might aptly apply here. I ordered a filet mignon/crabmeat combo and in 70 years I've had my share of filet mignon. After two pieces I realized it might take days of continuous chewing to finish the tough beef portion on my plate. The waitress noticed I'd hardly touched the meat and took the plate to the manager who offered a free dessert. Not wanting dessert the manager decided to compensate me for half my $27.00 meal by deducting my Sangria. I guess she thought that seemed fair though she never spoke to me. My wife and I have had many a good meal at Marblehead and she had no complaints that evening. I know my wife will want to return, me.....I'm not so sure.
Great as usual. Keep it up. We eat there several times a month and always enjoy it.
Very good service and very friendly staff
Service was exceptional as was the food! Thanks
Our waiter/server was incredible the whole night, making sure that we did not need anything and that everything was to our satisfaction. Will go back again in the future.
Very good experience, good food and good service.
