I had a great experience at The Lobster House. The place was pretty busy when I went, but it had a nice atmosphere and was worth the visit. I ordered the crab cakes with fries and coleslaw, and everything was really good and fresh. The bread they brought to the table was amazing too!

I also had a drink that I really enjoyed. The service was good, and I liked the overall atmosphere of the restaurant. There are also some interesting displays and things to see around the property.
