Service was first fatet (I think her name was Jillian).The tuna steak was excellent, and the calamari, the linguini with clams. The location is also just a bit away from the congestion.

Great sea food. Great service.. go there!
Outstanding seafood! Highly recommend! Great service . We’ll be back !
excellent all around. all 4 meals were fantastic, dessert was to die for. our waitress was top notch too. the only down side to this wonderful restaurant is lack of parking but it's worth circling the block to find a spot.
Great place! The best calamari ever!
fresh seafood at it's best. I has Toro Tuna broiled.
The best wood fired grilled lobster ever! We go directly from Texas to Scales and Shells. It’s amazing!
Went to scales and shells and enjoyed the seafood. This place is a seafood place with fresh local fish. Had a great menu. Our server Brianna was very attentive to us as the place was very busy. She made us feel special and was always smiling. Will be coming again when we head to Newport again
