one of the best restaurants! the service was amazing! lobsters and abalones are very fresh! they're so generous that they even gave us shrimps for free! the price is also not expensive!

I have never experienced racial profiling in my 52 years—until this visit. It was a truly horrible experience. My wife is Korean, and because I was with her, we were treated with clear disrespect that I would not wish on anyone.

We travel across the U.S. roughly 250 days a year and have been doing so for over six years. We spend our winters in Hawaii for both work and personal reasons, so we are not unfamiliar with dining here. That said, this was by far one of the most uncomfortable experiences we’ve had.

If you are not Asian or not a local, I would strongly suggest avoiding this place. While the food itself was excellent, the service was not. Our waitress, Sonya, was dismissive and unwelcoming—avoid her if possible. In contrast, the gentleman who seated us was very pleasant and went out of his way to help. I genuinely believe he noticed how poorly we were being treated and tried to make up for it.

To make matters worse, we were told they were out of lobster. However, the couple seated behind us ordered lobster shortly afterward. When I attempted to order it again, I was denied. Do better!! Also I was told that the King Crab was 800$

Service is bad, even no water all the time. Food is salty, and not fresh seafood. Atmosphere is bad, sticky floor. They added 18% service charge without asking and ask for tips. Don’t go

They were busy when I went so I waited a bit before being seated. My meal (seafood jjampong) was fantastic and the service was polite and sufficient.

Everytime I come visit family, we always have come to Lobster King for dinner and it never disappoints. The night we went, there was no crab so we settled with the lobster and it was wonderful. The staff was very apologetic and very fun to joke around with. They came out with a lobster and had some of us take pictures with them. I love their Salty fish fried rice!!!! so good!!!

I got to try their Samsun Jjamppon for $16.95 and they gave a lot and it tasted so good. Also, the service was very helpful and efficient.
