I tried the famous Lobstah Roll and Clam Chowdah and I liked it. I remember that the traditional place for this is Quincy Market, but there were too many people when I went there. The appearance is similar. Anyway, the place is good.

I was looking for a local lobster roll and I wasn't disappointed. The lobster was perfect and the roll had a nice glaze to it. The bread is also made locally.Fiona was awesome. She was attentive and even gave me some tips on places to visit for nightlife. Thanks!

Nice little restaurant for a bite to eat. Lobster roll prices are as expected but their burger meals are nothing to sleep on ?. Definitely recommend.

The food was very tasty. The lobster was fresh and the clam chowder was very creamy and flavorful. The fries were so crispy and delicious. They had good service too. They will give kids a lobster coloring page!

A funny place that has a hole in the wall vibe but is on a main thoroughfare. It is recommendeded as the best lobster roll in town for a reason but offers a wide selection as well. Definitely not as sparkly as the other places on the street but serves you up the best.

Chosen at random. Lobster(ah) soft tacos (New England tacos) were good. The taco shells could be better. Small place inside, friendly staff.

It was our first time trying a lobster roll, and WOW. We have never had anything like this before. Absolutely delicious, it completely exceeded our expectations. The lovely woman who was serving us even gave us a bowl of chowder on the house to start with which was also amazing! She was so friendly and attentive. The prices are so reasonable for what you get. Couldn’t recommend this place more, we hope to get back here before we go home. (Also, the list of places to see in Boston on the end of the menu was a nice touch!)Wheelchair accessibility: It is not wheelchair accessible- it is located down steps on Newbury street.

This was my first lobster roll. It was a 10/10 and the service was really sweet. Good music and priced fairly esp compared to the "fancy" places down the street. Someone called it "dirty" in a review but it was really clean and causal. Will be back next time I'm in town :)
