The Lobster Place

After enjoying the lobster rolls here for years, my disappointment was evidenced by the fact that I wouldn't bother finishing the chintzy sandwich with its lemon-soaked and too well-chopped meat...nothing succulent about it. AND no pickle on the side. Sadly, Italian tourists were digging in and probably wondering what all the fuss was about.

Pleasant experience. I tried lobsters in the back, and the taste was mavelous. Never tasted before, It tasted like prawns&crabs in some how. Maybe a bit greasy with sauce, but the sauce is made up of butter and lemon, so it will reduce feeling too much smell in it. Fresh meat and cooked right after the order. Price varies from 30$ to 70$ or more depending on the size. Medium sized lobster is about 50$, and you would enjoy it for 2 people, with some more foods.

No Need To book A month before
In a super chic place , to have a lobster....

The lobster place, provide the bests lobsters in town,

the jumbo one for few more dollars it's a real experience ,

try it cold with just lemon and enjoy snow crab legs the same way,

To add the fast food / deluxe snack touch ,

just open a can have a delicious fun...
And go..

This is exactly the way we are , stylish with an edgy twist .

Cheers

I dined here a few times, once at the Lobster bar and twice at the sushi bar. Lobster Place was high on my to do list for NYC and it did not disappoint. On entry you are visually overloaded by the amount of seafood on display. I have never seen such variety, and all of it is super fresh. Imported and local you can no go wrong. On weekends this place is packed to the rafters so come on weekdays if possible for a more leisurely experience. The Lobster bar sits at the very back of the market. You can look at the lobsters on display and choose the size you want, this is then freshly cooked for you on the spot. You can also choose a side of chowder and a beer or wine. There are a couple of small stand up bars to start dissecting your lobster at. I have to be honest and say that I was a little let down with the Lobster, it wasn't the magical experience I had hoped. Never mind we went to the sushi bar and this is where the magic happens. On our first occasion we tried some sashimi as well as a chirashi don. The sashimi as you can expect is super fresh, the bed of rice it sat on was very well seasoned and makes for a delicious lunch. We enjoyed it so much we came back for the Omikase grand set. It's the most expensive set on the menu and I recommend you choose a seat infront of a sushi master and request they serve each sushi piece individually in the traditional style. You will be blow away with the experience and the absolutely fantastic taste sensation you will have.
We also took a big bag of fresh seafood home to cook ourselves, but that is another delicious story :)

This place is THE place for seafood lovers. They have all kinds of fresh fish and seafood for purchase. They open sea urchin for you. We got a small 1.5 lbs steamed lobster, which was good for 2 people. I would definitely come back to try other items, like the lobster chowder they have.
