Lobster Place - New York

The experience and different types of seafood were wonderful!! At the door I was greeted by a very polite employee (Stephen) . He asked if we’ve visited the store prior, when I told him it was our first time he then proceeded to explained how everything worked. He recommended items from each bar that he claimed were a must try. I took him up on it and got their famous lobster roll,clam chowder soup and fish shrimp fry to try, it was amazing just like he said it would be. I was so thankful of Stephen’s awareness to see how lost me and my sister were when we first came in hahaha. Before we left, I made sure to thank him again for being so kind and asked for his name just for this review. Thank you once again Stephen!! (P.S I promised him that I will try oysters next time I comeback to NYC)

I come here at least twice a month! It’s so good that I even ordered catering for my party

Awesome lunch spot. The Toro was amazing. Service provided was spot on. I was asked several times if I needed anything. The rainbow roll was so so. I would have expected shredded crab on interior of the roll for type restaurant and prices. Fish was fresh. Nice atmosphere and plenty of seats for 1-2 persons while I visited. More than 2 and would be a wait. Would go back for sure if in the area.

Playing as tourist, ordered lobsta (Boston accent roll and oysters… let me warn you ahead, it wasn’t cheap! 3 lobsta rolls, fried fish shrimp plate, a dozen oysters and a pint of IPA beer will run you about $150 with tips. Lobster rolls wasn’t all that, I feel Luke’s might be better. Also the lobster roll in National Harbor is better! Over all it’s a food market : also it’s near by Little Island, another tourist spot.

Each counter has its own specialities and you order and pay at each one. We had some oysters at the raw bar and then a lobster roll at the hot food bar down the back. This one is the most popular section by far so seats are harder to come by and as most people are getting whole lobster the seats don’t turnover quickly. Lobster roll was nice, bun was a little small but packed with lots of lobster.
