If you're craving a lobster roll, go to Luke's! Stopped in for dinner last night. The interior reminded me of a dockside restaurant. The ordering process is much like a traditional barbecue place: Diners order at the register, and the food is brought out to the tables.
The lobster rolls seem a bit pricey but are really delicious! Next time, I'll try the flight.
The only pet peeve of mine is that the lobster bisque wasn't as hot as I like soup, but this frequently happens at other restaurants.
I'd consider coming back, but because of the price, I wouldn't make a habit of dining here. It's definitely worth a try!
Love the food it is delicious for the seafood lover i recommend it
I live a block away and have passed Luke’s Lobster a million times. Since the weather was so nice today my husband and I decided to finally go and try it out. We were attended by James, the weekend manager, who was so friendly and knowledgeable of the menu. He made some great food recommendations and we were super happy with our food choices. The truffle butter is to die for!! So is the clam chowder. Thanks for everything, James!! We will definitely be back!!
Good lobstah rolls baby!
I wanted to go to this place for some time. Finally I had a seafood flight and lobster bisque for lunch. I enjoyed the bisque, but the flight came without fries or soft drinks. I paid more than $40 and I was still hungry.
The food, service and atmosphere are ABSOLUTELY phenomenal! I had help from both Erving and James and I can't say enough about how helpful and kind they were. We are from out of town and always try to stop in a Luke's Lobster when we're near one and traveling and we were NOT DISSAPOINTED!!
Do yourself a favor and stop in! You absolutely won't regret it!

It was okay. I really wasn’t blown away. The lobster was meaty but wasn’t that flavorful. The brioche and lobster together was a bit too greasy. Restaurant was quite empty on a weekday around 7pm. Service was fine.

Lobster is good! The lobster roll flight was great to try all of them. And now I know I want to come back for each of them! The guy who took my order too was genuinely kind. The prices are steep but honestly try finding quality lobster rolls for cheap.

Nice out back, freezing inside, expensive but if it’s as sustainable as they say, I’ll subsidise that. Occasionally.

Delicious, clean, and comforting food, lobster and shrimp are mouth-watering and flawless.
Darwin at Luke’s Midtown East is an exemplary professional, warm, intelligent, and efficient. Everyone loves him, and he is one of the reasons why I would always go back to Luke’s Midtown East. The entire team at this branch is amazing and very professional. My special thanks to Darwin and Kareem.

The seafood is FRESH! I ordered the seafood roll flight. Each one was on a warm roll. The seafood was not warm but also not ice cold. There was a peppery seasoning sprinkled on each roll that I did not expect. The seasoning did not add, nor did it take away from the taste. I suggest not getting the seasoning without asking what it is. I also ordered the clam chowder. It did not taste as if it was cooked in-house, however, it was pretty good. Ask for it to be HOT, as mine was not as hot as I prefer. I ate inside the restaurant, which was very clean and spacious. It was a good meal, the seafood was definitely fresh, I'm glad it was not overly seasoned, nor was it salty. I'm definitely going back before I leave this short trip in NY.
I have not been compensated in any way for this review

After hearing so much about this place I finally made it for dinner and it was AMAZING!! We were craving lobster and it was the perfect combination for a hot summer day. Our server Erving made the experience even more memorable with his charismatic approach, very knowledgeable about the menu and that for me is extremely important with it being our first time there. Thank you Erving for your patience with us and answering our 18263738 questions on everything lol I can’t wait to go back!! Btw the spot in very cute too it was the perfect laid back date

Absolutely overpriced place with decent lobster but a terrible roll. For that price, they should have a better roll or offer something else. The place is fast food, and for that money, you can eat in a real restaurant.

Luke's Lobster in New York is absolutely amazing! My first experience with them made me fall in love with their food. The lobster rolls are incredibly delicious, and the buns are just perfect. The staff is super friendly and welcoming. I was thoroughly impressed and can't wait to return. Highly recommend for anyone who loves great seafood! I visites them in Las Vegas 2 years in a row and they are.also perfect!
