About this restaurant

  • Romantic
  • Good for special occasions
  • Innovative
We are saddened to announce that The Reel Seafood Company has permanently closed its doors after serving customers on Saturday, January 18. The Reel Seafood Company wishes to thank you, the customer, for your many years of support and dedication. Your support over the years is the reason Reel Seafood was the most highly regarded seafood restaurant in the Capital Region.

The decision to close our wonderful and iconic restaurant was a very difficult one and not one entered into lightly. We are committed to assisting each and every one of our loyal and dedicated employees to find employment.

Once again, thank you for your patronage and support over the past 37 years.

Sincerely,
The Reel Seafood Management Team

    I do not like the new menu as much as the old menu. I don’t think there is as wide a variety of seafood choices as there used to be. Miss the whole fish amongst others

    My daughter and I went for dinner and found that we liked the place better BEFORE they changed. I think the ambiance was better, the decorations, the service and the food. Our food was good but not worth the high price I paid And she must be gluten free and they only had a few meals, gf, and could not change any other meals. I believe before they changed, they accommodated whatever we asked of them, which alot of restaurants now do. So anyhow, it was good but we probably won't go anymore, unfortunately.

    Service was very slow, even with a reservation. We had a small party, 4 people on New Years Eve. We had a reservation and still waited for service. We were seated a total of 2 hours and 45 minutes. Food was just ok overall, but we had long finished our coffee before desert arrived. We will not go back

    Service was excellent! He observed an over cooked tuna, asked to get another one. We said that’s ok, we hate to waste food. He got it anyway and said, ‘I wouldn’t enjoy that.’
