Clam Castle / Taco Pacifico

We grabbed dinner here and had a very good experience. You enter through a door at the front of the building. There’s menus by the cash register. You place your order and pay. If you’re staying to eat they give you a little buzzer device and you grab a seat. There’s tables inside the restaurant as well as several picnic tables outside. When your food is ready someone will bring it to your table. It couldn’t be easier. They offer quite a good selection of food as well as soft drinks (soda,water,etc). We both really enjoyed our meals. I had the whole belly clams with french fries and it was delicious. The parking, restaurant and outdoor dining areas are all wheelchair friendly. The Clam Castle is really easy to get to as it’s located on the Boston Post Road in Madison. It’s close to Hammonasset State Park so if you follow signs to the state park you’ll find the restaurant. There’s parking on the side of the building. Definitely recommend it your in the area and want some really good food and a casual atmosphere.

New England summer food at its best. We’ve been there 3 times and it’s always very good. We’ve tried the fish sandwich (quite large & fresh filet), scallop roll, fief whole belly clams, lobster bisque and soft shell clam. All were delicious- they come out hot and fresh!

Very disappointed. Just came here for a late lunch and had the clam strips and whole belly clams with Caesar salad. The clams were a big disappointment, especially after reading all the positive reviews. Although the clams were tasty, and the whole belly clams were small, which I prefer, they were very chewy and not fried crispy. Also, the coleslaw was inedible. Watery, and too finely chopped, so that there was absolutely no crunch left to the cabbage. We will not be back.

Seriously, don't go here! The food is horrible. A lobster roll is hard to make great and also VERY hard to ruin...Well they ruined it. This lobster meat is as hard and old as a street vendor in China. No butter on it at all😫Donahues owned it a few years back and it was great, now back to a garbage spot from 20 years ago.

Just picked up Mother’s Day lunch at this establishment I’ve frequented for over a decade. Always had exceptional seafood here and today was a really off day. The whole belly clams were great but I’m unsure if there was a mix up in the order because it was printed on the bag 1/2 an order but I asked for and paid for a large order at market price. In total there was 5 whole belly clams in the box. Also purchased the 6 oz lobster roll and found a lot of shell and plastic bits inside, something I’ve honestly never experienced here before. The fish and chips were always a favorite of my family and this time was maybe pulled too soon from the fryer. This experience was unexpected.

Excellent lobster rolls and perfect clams. Rhode island clam chowder is great. Definitely get the lobster grilled cheese. Great Cole slaw

I’ve been to Clam Castle a couple of times before and the food was pretty decent. This time I ordered a codfish taco and the fish was completely off. It wasn’t slightly off or just starting to go off but very much off. It would be impossible not to tell when making the taco. Quite disappointing.

Worst seafood platter. I’ve had in a few years. Food has sunk to a new low, prices were over inflated. The fried cod was turning bad scallops not completely cooked, clam strips and fried shrimp were ok. The Clam fritters looked good initially, the inside of the the fritters were doughy and smelled and tasted nasty.. the cooking oil was either cheep or not properly cleaned each night. For $60.00 it could have and should have been much better
