I don't even know what to say! This was the best lobster and mac n cheese dish I've ever had! It had amazing flavor and the nicest employees! I got this while walking around downtown Carlsbad and was surprised on how amazing this little shop was! I would 100% recommend!

I don’t think I’ve ever really had a lobster roll or lobster mac & cheese. So I really don’t have anything to compare it to. But I have had lobster many times and mac & cheese many times and I will tell you, this plate did not disappoint. The lobster is very sweet and tender, not chewy at all. The mac & cheese was very cheesy and delectable, really enjoyed eating that.

It’s a little on the pricey side, as lobster usually is. If I ever want...

Not sure what the bad reviews are about. The lobster rolls here were some of the best my wife and I have had. The Carlsbad Lobster tacos were also delicious. Same with the tots. Food came out quickly. And even though the restaurant is QSR, but attached to a bar/restaurant - the service was awesome. Thank you. We'll be back!!!
