Reel Seafood has been a long-time favorite for many patrons, known for outstanding meals. However, recent reviews indicate that some feel the menu has become more limited and the dishes have lost their character, despite the high prices. Some diners were disappointed in the changes made by the restaurant and felt that the quality did not match the cost. Others had positive experiences, praising the excellent food, beverages, and service. Overall, opinions seem to be mixed, with some regular customers feeling nostalgic for the old menu, while others continue to enjoy the offerings and ambiance at Reel Seafood.
