Amazing food amazing service! Our waiter Edwin was spectacular. We ordered the Lemon Garlic Lobster roll, Lobster Bisque, Mussel frites and the lobster mac and cheese bites. Everything was 10/10 Will definitely come back! We also had their bottle of sparkling brute which was delicious. Everything was also priced reasonable!

First time visiting the short hills location Service was excellent by Marlen. Went around 3pm for lunch. They have a main floor and upstairs (for parties and dinner service I'm guessing). I had the lobster bisque. It was good. Next time I'll get the lobster bomb. Restaurant and bathroom were clean. They have paid street parking and a parking lot behind the Restaurant

We came here for lunch to try to viral lobster bomb and it did not disappoint! This was 2 meals for me, so it was an added bonus. The bisque is incredible - rich and creamy, there were HUGE chunks of lobster and then the sourdough bowl. A big hit! I love the variations they have on the classic lobster roll, as well. Service was quick and friendly. Beachy vibe inside - minimalistic and clean. We really enjoyed our experience here. I hope to come back to try some more amazing menu...
