Reviews for Denville Seafood & Codmothers Cafe in Denville, NJ
One of the best fish meals ever. Party of 5 and everyone raved about the meal. King Salmon was unbelievable
It's a seafood restaurant and for me that means they're already starting behind the 8-ball. They're busy, which is great for... them and speaks a lot to the quality of their food, but for me it was a miss. I had to order three times because they were outof the things I had ordered. At the end of the day I got a dish I knew I wasn't going to thoroughly enjoy because it was aboutthe only thing left on the menu that I would have enjoyed at all. Friendly and attentive staff, and great atmosphere otherwise.If you like seafood, this is a great place. It's just not for me. Read more
Horrible food! The other chef called out sick so we had to wait for our food for a long time. Not even that, the fried fish sea... bass had no taste and the side orders were awful. My husband ordered broiled fish but came out with the fried one. Linguini withalfredo sauce were drowning with oil and the garlic bread were burnt. Not going back to this place. Waste of time and money! So,called the restaurant and spoke to the mgr and he was the chef last night. When I informed him the food was horrible! He hung upthe phone!!!BAD CUSTOMER Service right there!! Read more
If you like seafood, this is the place to go in the Morristown area. The food was good, our server was knowledgeable and... attentive, the dining area clean and attractive. We started with an order of steamers: perfectly prepared and delicious. My wifehad the lobster roll. Here I get into one of my pet peeves about reviews. I saw several reviewers complain about the size oflobster dishes. My wife loved her lobster roll, but wished it were a little bigger. At $14, I thought it was about right. Ifyou want to get a "loaded" lobster roll, compare it to prices around: they're easily doubled. So this lobster roll was a fairvalue for a fair price. I had fish and chips. This is my go to base line order when I go to a new seafood place. The fish wasdelicious and fresh, perfectly crunchy and moist, and the chips were great: I ate more of them than I should have. Too good! Very fresh, excellent meal. This brings me to another pet peeve. I saw a review in which the author says the fish was bland andshe knows what it should taste like. I know fish, and I know fish joints. Good fish doesn't taste like fish (right?). Thereare lots of lesser places that put sauces or spices on to move less fresh product. Denville Seafood checks all the boxes for agreat seafood experience. Read more
Had the weirdest experience trying to have lunch at Codmother's the other day. We have been here a few times before and always... has been pleasant. This time we had family visiting and thought this would be great spot to take them. We walk in and areignored before a waitress comes over, no greeting and just asks if we have a reservation. Mind you there are TWO other tables inthe restaurant. We say no and think it shouldn't be a problem, but basically our presence seems to be annoying her. Then we sitdown and she tells us how next time we should make a reservation! I get maybe they can be busy at times, but they weren't... Sowhat her deal was- who knows?! Either way it made us uncomfortable, basically felt unwanted, so we decided to leave. This wouldhave been a good size bill, 5 adults, and a good tip. We like the food here, but unsure if we will be back. Read more
I am new to New Jersey so having this place close to my house is great. The food is fresh, and as you can see in the photo the... shrimp I purchased was very large. My only complaint is the prices. Very expensive, so if you visit this place be ready to paya hefty price tag! Read more
Fresh seafood every time. Great selections! Staff are friendly and helpful. I purchased 4 dozen clams and five lobsters recently... for a backyard seafood fest and they were FANTASTIC! Prices are reasonable. Highly recommended. Read more
I came to Denville Seafood starving today.. and left starving for more! ??Back in my culinary days, nothing excited me more than... working with fresh seafood. The cafe was very relaxed, the service was impeccable and the Broiled Fluke and Shrimp Bisque I justhad inspired me. 10/10 will be back. #TheHungryAgent #localrealtor #denvillenj #realestate #seafood #localseatbetter The AddisonGroup Read more
