For the portion we recieve and spent 69.00 dollars it wasn't worth it..the orders were 20.00 dollars a piece.. the bread which was smaller than your half sandwich u get at subway ..I'm guessing because they were closing or it's a in thing ..they are thinking they are catering at a venue and price their food so high but the portion is abysmal. Before you order, make sure you know or see what your getting so it justify the price your paying..Better off getting Chinese food save more n get more.

For $20 I was expecting the lobster to at least cover the roll. . As someone who get lobster rolls often this place isn't worth the money. Save yours...

I wanted to love it here. I truly did. The lobster roll was small. Way smaller than I thought. Not worth the cost in my opinion. Maybe if it came w some sides. Maybe if the roll were bigger. Maybe if there were more lobster. Idk. My chopped cheese was missing lettuce and tomato. It just wasn’t what worth it for me even though it tasted pretty good.

The lobster rolls are the best in NJ. The shrimp and grits excellent. I plan on trying everything on the menu

I UbearEat from them the other day. I ordered 5 items from them, the lobster Mac and cheese was the only thing that tasted good. The lobster pasta was dry and not saucy, wings was dry, burger sliders was ok, and their chicken tenders was just bad. It tasted like bad meat going bad. Instead of throwing it out, they cook it and feed it to their customers. I ordered from their Elizabeth location and never had an issue with their food, but was my first time ordering from their Linden location and I wasn’t pleased at all.

Walked in not knowing what to expect , atmosphere was comfortable, the establishment was impeccably clean, the waitress was very graceful and courteous to both patrons & those calling in orders, We ordered the the baja fish with fries & lobster fried rice, well balanced seasoned masterfully timed to perfection on the fish, the lobster fried rice was also very appetizing and the servings were abundant and plentiful. The price was spot on .I would definitely like to see this business thrive , it has a very diverse menu so there is something for everyone! I would definitely revisit & support this establishment.

Atmosphere was impeccably clean, server was very courteous & graceful, the management was also present and inquired about our experience. The order we placed consisted of the Baja fish and seasoned fries, Lobster rice, the order received was plentiful, well seasoned & fresh , the price was on point for the order , I liked that the menu was diverse so there’s something for everyone, they offer Sunday brunch and other menu specials that are sure to please, I would definitely frequent this establishment and would encourage others who are tired of the same options to consider this new concept & establishment. ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️

I ordered the Connecticut Roll. There were only tiny dry pieces of Lobster and the butter sauce did not taste of butter. It was dry. I go to places on the Connecticut shore often. The rolls have chunks of STEAMED Lobster with plenty of Butter. The bar is high. I paid $24 for that sandwich.

It's new to the area less than a year. A nice seafood touch without going to jersey shores. Owner is engaging and his cashiers are young but very very personable! And most of all they remember their customers. I love the family helping out in the business right down to the little adorable son Making and selling cutely packaged cookies! The place is comfortable, with seating, 20 people and it's crowded. But not intrusive to each other type crowded. He do a lot of marketing strategies to keep clientele coming.....Book clubs, brunches etc (He should have taken the old laundry-mat spot, because his clientele grew.) a very nice touch to the area So the first few weeks of opening I brought everyone I knew here on several instances. We are foodies and love visiting new restaurants, The consensus was the lobster biscuit was the best sell seller. The lobster brioche (all of them). And the lobster pasta , even the chicken dishes. Tasty and filling. I have had the lobster biscuits twice since their opening but two to 3 months in ordering them became an issue. These aren't small biscuits. There is a sweet taste to them that's addictive. we started coming and every time we wanted to order, they were out. EVERY TIME! We experimented. One of us called a half hour after opening, , another midday around 3 and another time frame of 7 pm. Same results " sold out or we are out of biscuits". How when you just opened!!!! Different days. We have been told now that the biscuits must be ordered the day before . I was told this after I asked over the phone ,why have it on the menu if it's never available. I didn't ask for the manager or anyone of authority I just hung up! Listen their menu is on point. But that kinda rubbed me the wrong way, there to date is no signage that says such a thing. The only dish I tried and didn't like was the fried lobster , the pieces were small qty and Dry. A good place for friends to meet and eat, but not to linger for long, Oh yeah and it's BYOBB NO HARD LIQUOR! Plentiful parking. Enjoy.

This was a interesting spot, didn't even know it was here until the day I went. Food was good, taste was delicious but the size or portion of things were a little on the small side. I was slightly disappointed because of that but taste was there, unusually try things 3x reviewing but definitely going back! Worth the shot!

Attended a Birthday Brunch with friends. The restaurant was modern and very clean. The staff went above and beyond and it felt sincere. The food was absolutely delicious, and the presentation was just as pleasing. The female D.J. was refreshing, We all had a great time.... Thank ya'll for a pleasant afternoon?
