Stick with the classics. The fish and chips brought flaky haddock inside a perfect greaseless crust. The Romano cheese-breaded soft-shell crabs were meaty and sweet. The stuffed shrimp were leaden, but the little filet was an excellent "turf" to the shrimp's bready "surf."
Legal also served a satisfying but ridiculously expensive steamed lobster - even if $55 for the 21/2-pounder is an accurate reflection of this year's volatile lobster prices. I'd prefer the more economical lobster roll at lunch.
There are straightforward-but-decent renditions of cheesecake, Key lime pie, Boston cream pie, and chocolate-coated ice cream bonbons for dessert.
