    The Lobster Bisque
    Elizabeth A.

    I looked at the menu online before going in. I wanted to try t o things as I am familiar with lobster rolls being from the northeast but would never be caught spending $27 on a lobster roll as I pay $12 in Maine for one so my other two options to try were a lobster salad and lobster bisque. I am glad I didn't spend much money since the bisque had a bit of a bleachy taste. There was one little lobster claw on the top and that's it. Not very much of a lobster taste and consistency wasn't great as the bisque separates. Not to mention the portion is fairly small and not really a cup worth. The mini lobster claw was chewy which means it's either been saturated in water too long OR it's frozen. The lobster salad was better definitely lots of dressing and a as a good portion. I did enjoy this and for that I gave it a two star. If you want to spend money that much on good authentic yummy lobster just head to Maine. I did enjoy the root beer thought.

    Lobster Fried Rice
    LaShawndra N.

    Highlights -Clean, Great Music, Very personal experience Small dine in option. There's seating for 10 or less people inside. I would say most people get their meals to go. Although, not a lot of seating it was still a good experience to be able to dine in and take in the good music (Afro beats) and the mural of New York greats on the wall. Food took between 15-20 minutes to be prepared so this place is not the best place to go if you are short on time. Order ahead! I ordered the lobster fried rice. I had high hopes but was truthfully disappointed with the portion size and the choice of sauce used on the rice. I understand that since seafood was involved that I wouldn't get a heaping portion but what I received for the price left me wanting way more. The rice comes with a sweet sauce (likely sweet & sour sauce) already on it and I prefer to be able to make my own sauce selection on fried rice (usually soy sauce). Typically fried rice comes plain, no sauce, which I like because you can really get a true flavor profile on the rice but this rice was just sweet due to the sauce being cooked in. Bummer! I wish they'd make an option to have it sauced or no sauce. The people I was with had lobster tacos & Poboys and fries. They felt that the fries were undercooked/soggy and the meat in the tacos was so finely shredded that you could barely taste it. I had a taco, I understood their sentiment but I felt that taco itself was good. The special sauce included on the taco was a great addition. I would be open to going back to try additional menu items!

    Lobster, Lobster, & more Lobster! This was my second day trying this place out, so I got the Flatbush and some lobster fried rice, my daughter got the loaded lobster fries, and the lobster Mac . The food was seasoned well and the lobster tasted amazing. As far as the location very relaxing, not very big and as far as counter service, the female that took our order was very friendly. The food pricing starts around $9 and the most expensive item was around $30.

    Small rice $8 really mushy
    Ivori T.

    I really wanted to like this place but the rice wasn't good and over cooked real mushy. The lobster mac and cheese was okay but could use more seasoning and overcooked. The lemon pepper wings ok a little fatty. The service was good nothing to just brag about. The inside is nice just a small. I think a little overrated

    Today was my 1st visit to BK Lobster. I was greeted received a warm welcome by an awesome young lady. She gave me a recommendation of the frequent requested roll. The suggested roll was a combination of shrimp & lobster. OMG! It was so delicious & plentiful. The customer service delivered by the young ladies working was outstanding.

    Shrimp Po Boy With Fries
    Jazmin L.

    I have been swing this place for a while now and just never stopped by. But yesterday I decided to give it a try. I walked in and it was pretty nice and clean in the inside only one person was working inside. She was able to help me place my order. I ordered a shrimp po boy with fries. Despite being the only person ordering it did take them a while to receive my food. The food looked really good. However once I tried it I felt like the flavor wasn't there, it definitely needed more seasoning. The shrimp was nice and crispy with the buttery toast. Overall it was a decent meal I was just expecting more from a newer place. I definitely will go again and try the lobster rolls and see how they taste.

    #1 East New York
    Nykia A.

    This is definitely my new go to for good seafood! I've been about 5 times since they opened and I always get the #1 East New York lobster roll and lobster tacos. The roll is delicious, the staff is friendly and the ambiance is esthetic (love the Lil' Kim pic). I came today to treat myself while shopping for uniforms for my daughter. After I ordered, I left to do more shopping and came back an hour later. I was totally expecting to have enjoy a cold sandwich, since I was gone so long. The owner, Keon, happened to be there when I returned and asked the crew to make my sandwich fresh. That's amazing service and I'll absolutely be back [this week]!

    The customer service is wonderful. Pertaining to the lobster fried rice it was good however more like a lobster jambalaya. The Coney Island is very tasty would add extra butter.

    Coney Island (lobster and shrimp) with fries
    Ebony M.

    Visited Tanger Outlets and recalled seeing BK Lobster the last time I was charging my Tessie. Decided to come and try them out and I am glad I did. Upon entering, I was immediately greeted by a young lady who asked if I was ready or would I like suggestions. I opted for her suggestions which landed me ordering the Coney Island which is a mix of succulent and plentiful warm lobster and shrimp. I also made it a combo for $3 more which gave me fries and a drink. The menu is diverse ranging from lobster rolls, fried shrimp, lobster grilled cheese, and lobster mac. My food didn't take long to prepare and I appreciate being offered to check it out before I officially took the food to my seat. The fries were pretty good after I seasoned them with salt and pepper. Wish they were a tad bit crispier but still tasty. My lobster roll was very meaty (thank goodness considering the $28 price point ... to be expected for lobster though) and the bun was buttered and toasted just right. My only suggestion would be to serve with a side of melted butter especially for those pieces of meat that kept falling out the roll. That would have been very yummy. Overall, I enjoyed the food and customer service. Oh, I dined in and really enjoyed the relaxed R&B coming thru the speakers. Will definitely come back the next time I am in the area.

Atlanta is coming off spring break so maybe people are prepping for back to school/work next week. Our server (Darlene) was super kind and customer service friendly. She took the time to explain the best way to order so we maximized our options on side items. She checked on us a few times and brought extra lemon and butter and bind as needed. I had a Long Island ice tea. I had read the reviews prior to coming and expected a drink much stronger than what I received. My dining buddy ordered a "sneaky link" which is basically a blue mfer. She didn't think her was strong either. She order two pound of crawfish and a half pound of shrimp her sides were corn, potatoes and broccoli. I ordered a pound of crab legs and my sides were the same. ($105) The potatoes were small boiler potatoes. You could eat one potato in a full bite so if you like the potatoes, don't substitute them as they are tiny. The corn and broccoli were delicious. We both got medium spicy and I could have gotten mild. I didn't think it was overly spicy but if my nose starts running while eating a seafood bag I'm not trying to wipe my nose and eat. Ewww The place had a nice mellow R&B playlist going but again, I was here at 130ish on a Sunday afternoon. We had a 15% off coupon. The manager has to add the discount after the check is printed, so if you have the coupon be sure to make sure it's applied.

The oysters were fresh, perfectly seasoned, and had that rich, briny flavor you can only get when they're done right. The sides were hot, flavorful, and paired perfectly with the platter.

Exceptional Service at The Juicy Crab I had another great experience at The Juicy Crab, and my waitress made it even better.

As for the facility, very clean and relaxed for families and special dates. And for my veterans, they do honour you with a pretty good discount. Semper Fi......

Though in an older building, we used to frequent this specific spot back in the day when it was a pizza shop, it's super clean, the restaurant and restroom(s). (I assume the men's is as well kept as the women's.) we were there mid Thursday afternoon and they had quite a few customers! We ordered a few rounds of raw oysters, teriyaki chicken tenders with fries, peel-n-eat shrimp, and buffalo shrimp, so quite a variety and everything tasted great! It's set up like a bar scene, though they only serve beer and wine which I can only assume has to do with the ginormous expense for a full bar liquor license and stock price threshold. The menu leans more into bar food plus some delicious extras such as raw oysters. They also have a board up displaying live music dates and such. I love these types of places, small businesses, especially ones that show so much enthusiasm will always hold a special place in my heart over corporate chains any day in spite of the cost of entry. If I had one recommendation, it would be to update the ketchup bottles. The labels either need to go or just replace the bottles altogether. Otherwise, everything was great!
