    Golden Butter Roll
    Jen B.

    Absolutely do yourself a favor and check them out!!! We happened to see this new spot after a homegoods haul. So glad we gave it a try. We were greeted immediately by the sweetest young woman, Emily. She helped us pick out a few items, and made sure to let us know the Cali truffle was chilled, not hot. We also tried golden butter roll. Both were phenomenal, and piled HIGH with lobster, I mean STACKED!! Definitely getting your moneys worth. Fries were nice n crispy. Emily not only brought our food to the table, but continued to check on us, and even let us try the lobster bisque (delish). Everything was seasoned really well, and the lobster meat was sweet and perfectly tender. The restaurant felt very fresh, and clean, cute decor. And for those that care the bathroom was immaculate lol Will 100% be back!

    Lobster Boss is amazing... the food AND service! If you like butter (like me), get the Golden Butter Lobster Roll! Their Lobster Bisque is soooo delicious as well! Everything was really good, so there was nothing that disappoints. Boston style Lobster Roll, Lobster pasta, Bone-in Wings, Passion fruit and lemonade drinks Massive portions of Lobster meat on the dishes! Next time, I want to get their Clam Chowder, Lobster Mac and cheese, Coconut Shrimp and/or Jumbo Cajun Shrimp!

    Really good I enjoyed their food. Boba drinks are really pricey though when it really shouldn't be. My milk tea cost seven dollars and it was one dollar add-on for Boba. $8 is pretty nuts and they packed more than half of the cup with ice so I was done pretty quickly. It bothered me so much that I went to ask for a bit more at the very least since there was so much ice. Lady who worked there was sweet and said no problem and although reluctant she refilled it 1/3 of the way.. but it ended up tasting different after. That's my only con.. other than that my lobster roll and lobster bisque. Soup was delicious.

    Front desk lady very nice and beautiful

    Food was great and tasty. The lady service at the front desk was amazing. She knows what customers need. The shop is clean.

    Lobster Pasta

    I have tried this place a couple times and each time it has been amazing. So far I've tried the premium lobster roll and the lobster and crab roll. Both were delicious and will be one of my go to items moving forward. I especially like how these come warm. We have also tried the steak and fries. The steak was cooked perfectly, it was juicy and was well seasoned. The fries are always cooked to the perfect crisp. On our last visit we tried the lobster spaghetti and their lobster bisque soup. Both were great but the lobster bisque really took the win here. You get little pieces of lobster in every bite and over all has really good flavor. The customer service has been great every time we come in. We even came in 5 minutes before closing once and the cashier was still happy to take us in. The restaurant is always clean and neat. I enjoy their music playing in the background and have plenty of seating. We will definitly be coming back and trying more items from their menu.

    Lobster pasta tastes as good as it sounds, and it comes with a soft garlic toast. You can either place an order on their kiosk or with the cashier. Service is good and there's a ton of parking!

    Lobster Boss is one of my favorite fast food seafood spots! The seafood was fresh and flavorful, the fries were hot and crispy, the wings were delicious, and the mac and cheese was creamy and satisfying. The passion fruit lemonade was refreshing and paired perfectly with the meal. The employees were very nice, welcoming, and provided great customer service. Everything came out quickly, and I can't wait to come back!

    such a fun spot for seafood lovers! we got the crawfish hut sampler and the portion was huge…read more everything tasted super fresh, especially the king crab, snow crab, shrimp, and clams. the seafood was sweet, juicy, and full of flavor. my favorite part was definitely the spicy garlic butter sauce. it was rich, buttery, garlicky, and had the perfect little kick. honestly made everything taste even better. the atmosphere is really lively and perfect for coming with a group of friends. they also have beer, which is such a nice touch with a seafood boil. overall, really good portions, fresh seafood, and a fun vibe. i'd definitely come back when i'm craving crawfish or king crab!

    *TO-GO ORDER REVIEW*…read more I was not in the mood to grub on a seafood boil in the restaurant, so I decided to order for pickup (through DoorDash) and take it back to my hotel. What I ordered: Build Your Own -- Clams, Green Mussels, 6 pc Sausages FOOD: 9/10 Double-bagged, sealed tight, and most importantly, HUGE pieces of seafood with a yummy garlicky sauce. My clams were HUGE. I honestly have not seen clams this big in a while. The corn was succulent and sweet, and the slices of sausage were tender and hefty sizes as well. I love that I definitely got what I paid for. I also noticed they put the bag upside down so that when you flip it over, all the sauce coats the seafood. Such a small detail, but I thought that was pretty clever, unless that wasn't even intentional? haha. For what I ordered specifically, I paid $37, which I thought was such a good price. Of course, I'm aware it also depends on what seafood you get, since that can definitely rack up. Honestly, they had hella good stuff on their menu, and I would love to go back and try something else, including their drinks! SERVICE: 10/10 Straightforward and kind service. To be fair, I just came in to check in and grab my food, so there wasn't much opportunity to really experience the service. But the lady who helped me was definitely nice! AMBIANCE: N/A I didn't dine in, so I can't really review much, but from what I saw, it looked spacious!

Hands down, some of the best seafood dishes around! Everything is so well-seasoned and cooked to perfection. The servers are also super friendly and attentive, which definitely helps make the experience better. Just know that this restaurant is BUSY. Do not come expecting a quiet, slow-paced meal. The food comes out quickly, the place is loud because it's packed, and you can definitely feel the hustle and rush. But honestly? I keep craving the food here, so I brave the crowds and come back anyway. It's THAT good. One thing to note: definitely ask the servers about the menu, but don't feel like you have to order everything they recommend. Our server raved about the coconut prawns, which were $60, and unfortunately, they were not worth it for me. Long wait, loud atmosphere, questionable $60 prawns... but I'd still come back for the seafood.

The clam chowder , fried oysters with fries and garlic noodles definitely complimented well with the 3lbs shrimp we got! I also got pina colada to balance the taste and it's very refreshing! We definitely left feeling full, satisfied and happy! I will definitely comeback to this place and recommend this to my friends and family!

    We came here on Good Friday evening, after leaving another seafood boil spot(they had a long wait)…read more We were seated after a few minutes, and orders placed about 815pm. We got the combo #2 which came with your choice of head on shrimp, clams and crab (snow crab). We got the crab shack house sauce with medium spicy. All this seafood is steamed in a bag, comes with corn, potatoes and sausage pieces. Everything was quite tasty. The fries are crispy and had a generous cheese sprinkle of Parmesan. Sweet potato fries also taste great. Be prepared to dig in with bare hands - they do provide thin gloves and disposable bibs. I got steamed rice but maybe didn't need it. The one pound peeled shrimp in garlic butter no spice was quite tasty. The three servers were completely slammed. But they did keep things running well- between taking orders to each table, & serving refills , bussing tables and closing out bills. Communal sink for washing. I think part of etiquette is to NOT rinse out your mouth here. It's used by everyone after all. I do wish the floor was was in better condition - it's a bit rough uneven and slippery.

Unlike some places where I leave feeling bloated, I don't get that way here. The shrimp was cooked perfectly, which is harder to find than you'd think.

What really made our experience stand out was the service. We came with a large group, and the owner was so sweet, attentive, and welcoming throughout our meal.

The seafood tasted really fresh overall, and the sauce was flavorful, and packed with seasoning. It was a little on the thin side since I like it thick and it couldve used a lot more garlic. We got crawfish, shrimp, and oysters. The crawfish were decently sized -- a few bigger pieces mixed in, but mostly medium-sized. Still, they tasted fresh and the flavor was really good The Kumomato oysters were just okay. I've definitely had fresher, colder oysters elsewhere, but honestly, I don't come to a shrimp and crawfish boil spot expecting right outta the water oyster bar quality.

    Quality HOT POT over here!…read more Place is a little hard to spot but be sure to lookout for the flagship name "Raising Claw". My bro and I opted out on the 55$ premium AYCE menu. The establishment really focuses on quality and representation. The first round order took about ten minutes to come out after the soup broth was brought out. Second round order was very consistent as the quality of marbled meats came out as identical as the first batch. The tri tip and Australia rib eye was very savory. All beef options were all excellent. Chuck roll is a little too chewy for my liking as opted out on second and third order. Green tea ice cream matcha is a good meal ender.

Our server Hayden was also very knowledgeable on all the cuts and attentive to our needs. He was switching out plates for us and bringing in new foods in the set menu as we ate. The restaurant set up is nice too, you don't have to worry about crammed tables as they have carts to put your extra plates on so you have plenty of room to eat. Overall the experience was fun and the food was really good, the price point is high but definitely worth it since you get a lot of meats and seafood as well. Personally I'd place this location better than mokkoji or Shabuya :).
