2023-12-09 05:31:28It was our first time at Lobster West and arrived 4:20pm. Great casual ambiance, seating along the patio.they have generous servings, juicy and flavorful lobster and crab sandwiches. The soup was awesome for the cold weather. We will surely be back for the food. An area to improve for dining customers is the improvement is rest room for the dining guests. Not only you’ll have to walk around the building to get to it, but it’s one cubicle available.

2023-06-24 03:22:31Very fresh ingredients. The lobster rolls were delicious and the bread was so buttery, yum! Crab cakes were tasty with hardly any fillers like you see at most restaurants. Theirs is pure crab meat! Prices are expensive but worth the quality.

2023-08-06 02:12:57The three types of rolls lobster, crab, and shrimp are amazing. These rolls are light, buttery and have a nice crust. This is my new favorite seafood stop. Although, the seating could be vastly improved.

2023-11-11 01:16:05This place was not what I expected. Their food was good but when I see a place with the name lobster west I expected at least a loster tail option. To be fair, my lack of stars is the result of my initial reaction to when I read the menu and didnt see what I was hoping for. This place is good, just not for me. The employees were very helpful and friendly. I received my food quickly.

2022-09-11 15:39:50If there is a lobster roll I normally order it so I feel like I have a lot to compare it too and this is one of the best I have ever had. Lots of lobster, buttery toasted soft bread and just get taste. I usually get mine Connecticut style which is served warm and buttery vs Maine which is chilled with mayo. They have other options too like the crab and shrimp roll and combos if you want to taste everything.

2023-05-09 13:16:25I go here once a month for the epic gluten free lobster roll. Thank you Lobster West, for considering those who need gluten free!! In addition, I have never liked Cole Slaw, but whatever they put on theirs is incredible! I order two sides of it just so I can take one home!The very best lobster roll on the west coast!

2023-01-17 03:59:21One word to describe this place is delicious! I tried the Maine event rolls which had lobster, crab and shrimp. They took me by surprise the bun was warm and buttered but the inside had Mayo with the cold toppings. I will say it went very well together and they were topped with seasoning. I also tried the New England clam chowder which was just above mediocre. The space inside is quite small and does not favor large parties but there is out door seating. It was more on the pricy side one 3 rolls one scoop of soup and two drinks was $55. Was worth at least trying once

2022-04-30 21:26:44I thought my roll was going to be warm and in butter but it was cold and in mayo. Thankfully it wasnt much mayo at all and it was still very delicious. The bisque was very good!!! I was happy with my lunch, albeit pricey, but I would go elsewhere next time I want a lobster roll. 🦞 The staff is very nice!

2022-10-28 15:40:06I have come here several times over the last two years. I have enjoyed the food here. The lobster is definitely fresh! I also appreciate the bread that is used. The only draw back is that it can be a bit pricey; but given the high quality of ingredients and consistent quality it’s not too bothersome. Usually no issues with parking or seating. I’d say don’t come here if you are “very hungry.” However if you want great quality lobster rolls; this is a great location for it. I would come again and recommend

2021-07-07 23:52:05This review is long overdue! I have been coming here a long time. Always consistent in 5 star service from the staff and owners. The lobster bisque is the best in town along with Connecticut style lobster roll. I finally tried the lobster salad and crab roll today! They were just as awesome. Keep up the great job everyone. Thank you for always treating me and my family in town today like VIP.
