The recipient

"The recipient was ecstatic about the choices. Very glad we ordered it from you"

Gail W. (5/5)

First time on-line ordering

"Always go in person to Legal Seafoods when traveling to the East Coast from my home in the Midwest. Received an offer via email to try a chef pack special at a discounted price. With Holy Week coming up, made a spontaneous decision to order online and ship to my home. The ordering process was easy and the box arrived packed in dry ice a few days later. Was pleased that cooking instructions did not require thawing. Cooking only required 30 minutes. Taste was a notch below restaurant quality, but that is to be expected on a frozen product. The meal was perfect for 2 people and brought back many happy memories of eating New England seafood."
