One of the best lobsters I’ve ever tasted! My husband and I drove all the way from New Jersey to visit this place after hearing they serve great lobster, and it did not disappoint. The trip was absolutely worth it and every penny spent. The green salad was also delicious and tasted very fresh. We will definitely be coming back! 🦞

Delicious lobsters and appetizers.
We had the Maine lobster and Connecticut lobster roll. It was delicious. I’d recommend getting the lime ranch on the side as a dip.
Loved the calamari too.
It’s a little pricey, but I think it’s worth it.

Just ok, not worth price. Not much flavor in the lobster rolls.

A very popular spot and for good reason. Generous portions and the lobster is juicy and sacculent. Everything we had was great. Service was attentive and kind. A perfect lunch!!

I often grab lunch here independently or with my husband, mom even a group of friends. For me its a no frills staple for a lobster roll and I am never disappointed. If you’re not into lobster there are other options available as well.

We had the lobster sandwich and fish&chips. Food was delicious.
The staff was not asking us if everything was fine - maybe we would have ordered some more drinks..

I came to see what all the hype was about, but left wondering what I missed. The Connecticut lobster roll, which cost over $50, didn’t deliver the buttery punch I expected. If I’m paying that kind of price, I want flavor that grabs me; not something forgettable.

The oysters were okay, but I’ve had better. Calamari was heavy on the batter and lacked the crispiness I like. Tacos? Meh—just so-so. And the lobster bisque came out lukewarm, which really dulled the richness it should’ve had.

Service didn’t help either. It wasn’t busy, yet I had to wave down our server multiple times just to get basic attention. That kind of inattentiveness really takes away from the experience.

Honestly, I’d rather track down a Cousins Maine Lobster truck and call it a day. Better flavor and no need to play hide-and-seek with the staff.
