" Vel's is one of those local treasures that you hear about from many! I decided to check it out, and it lived up to its reputation! I ordered the shrimp cocktail and a fried seafood platter while my friend went with lasagna. Everything was wholesome and satisfying. The service was friendly, even though it felt a bit rushed toward the closing time. The vibe felt very homey and comfortable! I would definitely return. " (*Curated Review*)

" Had a relaxing family dinner at Vel's last weekend. The service was superb, and I noticed how the waitstaff paid attention to everyone’s needs. I had the seafood platter, and it was everything I hoped for: crispy fried fish, sweet scallops, and just the right amount of seasoning. The clam chowder was a hit with everyone at the table! It's certainly a place I would visit again without hesitation. " (*Curated Review*)

Staff is friendly, which always enhances the experience! " (*Curated Review*)

" Visited Vel's for a late lunch with the family, and overall I was quite impressed. The atmosphere was laid back and welcoming. I had the fried clams, which were delicious—crispy and seasoned just right. My husband loved his meatloaf, a comforting home-style dish. This place’s portions never disappoint; there’s always food to take home! I think we’ve found a new favorite for family dinners. " (*Curated Review*)

I'd recommend it to other travelers passing through the area. " (*Curated Review*)

" Overall, my visit to Vel's was quite satisfactory. The food was flavorful, and the portions couldn't be better for the price we paid. I opted to try the meatloaf, and it met my grandma's standards! My partner had the fried clam plate and was very pleased with it. The setting has a casual charm, with friendly staff serving the tables. Would consider coming back for occasions in the future. " (*Curated Review*)

" I’ve been coming to Vel's for ages, and I’m always satisfied with my meal. The fried clams and onion rings are always fresh and generously portioned. During my last visit, I tried their clam chowder, and it was creamy and full of flavor. The restaurant has a nice family-friendly vibe. The staff is usually efficient and pleasant. I haven't had a bad experience at Vel's yet, but I missed getting the servers full attention during busy times. However, it’s a solid choice for a meal anytime! " (*Curated Review*)
