“Best Clam Chowder” - Boston Magazine, 2017, 2011, 2010

“You don’t mess with success.  Legal’s classic formula  - a creamy base, loads of clam flavor, firm potato chunks - has been warming Bostonian’s souls for decades.  It even has a White House endorsement, having been ladled at every inauguration since the Reagan era.” - Boston Magazine, 2017

“Based on a rich fish stock made from the bones of thousands of swimmers, the chowder features the essence of briny clams, a bit of cream, herbs, onions, and potatoes. Simple and delicious.” - Boston Magazine, 2011

"Surely someplace other than Legal can whip up a great chowder, we thought. And so we set about finding it. Countless gloppy, thin, and off-tasting bowls later, we conceded: The rich seafood base of Legal’s well-seasoned recipe is unmatched, and the ideal mixture of plump clams, potatoes, and cream seals its spot at the top.” - Boston Magazine, 2010
