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.

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.
