The best and coolest staff in Brooklyn. My wife says they make the best lobster 🩞 rolls and potato salad.

This review is for the Red Hook Lobster Pound that was in the Winter Festival in Bryant Park. As a representation of the restaurant, I believe the Lobster Cone was below subpar. Paid $30 each for this, and I’ve had better in California for cheaper and as a bigger portion. When going to Bryant Park, I’d recommend straying from this item on their menu, as it’s not worth the price. But, even if I was to go back, I wouldn’t want to even try another item on their menu. So if you see the line wrapping around, don’t even bother. One worker had to reform the line, creating disorganization and then said, “don’t worry, it’s worth the wait.” That statement was false, it wasn’t worth the wait. I should’ve followed a couple who had gotten off the line due to how long it was. I would’ve saved myself from disappointment. I’m glad I didn’t double up, as the worker stated you can add more, just don’t. The lobster was very bland, and wasn’t buttery at all, as emphasized, and the cone was tough to eat, instead of a softer texture, ended up tossing both cones after eating the bland lobster. If this stand is an extension and like I said before a representation of your restaurant, this stand needs to be better, the portion size needs to be better and the organization of the stand as well.

Casual little place that is on theme. Enjoyed the fresh seafood and solid service.

it saddens me to report on our subpar lunch. my dining friend & i both got the maine lobster roll for lunch. it arrived quickly enough but the lobster was not the usual meaty, flavorful, soft texture but was rubbery & tasteless. the roll was soppy wet on the inside. the fries were cold & hard like it’s been sitting out & not fresh out of the fryer. on top of all that, they charge one of the highest prices for lobster rolls. it would have been worth it if we had a satisfying meal. the last insult is my watery arnold palmer. there are too many other options so i will not be going back anytime soon

Service was outstanding. OystersđŸŠȘ were fresh, some of the best I've had in the world. Lobster tail 🩞 was dry and difficult to eat. The sauce was tasty but the meat was mediocre. Draft selection was great. Will be back for the friendly service.

The lobster bisque was the best I've ever had. Adding lobster to a Cobb salad wasn't really that delicious., or really worth the additional price

I’ve been here for 8 years. Always good food and good vibes. Today I moved a table 10 inches and got said “you can’t do that, when I come to your place I don’t move furniture right?”
This felt extremely rude and inappropriate, I encourage managers to educate better their staff. Hospitality needs work. Won’t be back for a while.
