    Good clam chowder
    Jason G.

    Some good lobster sandwiches for sure. I need to go back soon! I love this place. I definitely will be back!

    Bonnie S.

    I love that Buena Park has Lobster Guys now!! Woohoo! It took over that breakfast burrito/chicken wing spot off of Valleyview and Lincoln. I ain't mad about it! Lobster Guys brings a whole new vibe and flavor to Buena Park. My favorite type of Lobster Roll is always the classic. Toasted bun, seasoned lobster meat and drenched in butter. For my non carb hubby, he definitely enjoyed the Lobster Guys Special Salad simply filled with grilled shrimp, lobster meat and crab meat on top of spring mix salad. For my kids, they couldn't get enough of the lobster grilled cheese (ultra cheesy) with the tomato soup and the fish and chips! I enjoyed the coconut shrimp and crab wontons as it satisfied my crunchy cravings. The service by Maddy the store manager was amazing and attentive. She keeps the place clean and delightful. They are in the soft opening stage, so be nice as they are figuring stuff out and under staffed.

    Now open. New sign coming soon!

    This new Lobster Guys location recently opened, and I've had the chance to visit a couple of times to try out a few menu items. I've had the Connecticut style lobster roll (warm) and the Maine style lobster roll (cold). Both of these were delicious, and the lobster was cooked and seasoned well. The lobster meat was also tender and not rubbery. The fries are seasoned, coated, and fried. No boring fries here. I also tried a cup of the clam chowder, which was hot, chunky, and not too watery. It could be a bit thicker, but it's still satisfying. The dining area is clean and features a few tables, making it a cozy space overall. The decor could use more character, though. I think brightening the walls and adding some art, similar to what is done in the other locations, will make it feel more inviting and better fit the coastal mood. Some chill music would be nice, too. The service was okay on the first visit, but on the second visit, the staff who helped me were friendly and attentive. My food also came out promptly. Although a bit pricey, the quality is decent for a local fast casual spot. I'll probably be back when the cravings hit.

    Classic Butter Lobster Roll
    Josh H.

    I ordered the Classic Lobster Roll combo, Mango Habenero Wings, and Clam Chowder The Clam Chowder was hot and tasty, the consistency was more watery than thick, depending on your preference some may like that more than others. But overall was a good clam chowder. If it was thicker, I would definitely order it again, but I would probably skip it on my next visit. The Classic Lobster rolls pretty good, there's a good amount of lobster and the bread came out hot and toasted. The fries were very good, crispy and hot with good flavor. I've had fresher tasting lobster for the price but overall it was still pretty good, definitely a place to stop if you want a roll quick. This definitely beats other grab and go rolls nearby. The wings were really good, nice sized wings with a good amount of sauce, and they came out hot. I would recommend to order these The ambiance is casual like a grab and go place with friendly staff. I would recommend they put on some type of music since it's really quiet and sitting in there waiting feels a bit awkward, especially if you're having a conversation everyone is able to listen. There was only two people in the restaurant when I ordered, and it took 20 minutes for my food to come out, I'm sure with time their efficiency will be better; however they did give me a free clam chowder for the wait which was very nice. Overall, if you want a Lobster roll from somewhere local, this would be a good choice.

    George and Maddy were very sweet when I went in letting them know that this was my first time. They were very informative on what to try and the lobster roll was delicious. The place is very open and cool. Definitely recommend coming here for the soups too.

    Claims they're open daily from 11-8, placed on order online on Sunday only for them to be closed still haven't received a refund yet.
    Kassie C.

    We had found this place through Maps on our iPhone which does say they are open daily from 11-8 pm (attached picture). It took us to their website, where you can order via Toast. Nowhere on toast did they say it was closed. Placed an order, was charged for the food, arrived 20 min later to the restaurant to see they are closed. I called, left messages sent a text, gave them the day to respond and still haven't heard anything about a refund. Yelp says they're closed on Sundays and Mondays however not everyone automatically checks yelp before going to a place. Especially if they're ordering on their website- it should've definitely been closed and shouldn't have allowed me to place an order.

    Clam Chowder Cup, Maine Style Lobster Roll, Classic Butter Lobster Roll
    Katelyn S.

    Was craving a lobster roll so decided to check this place out with my husband. As we got in, we were warmly greeted by Addy. She was very sweet and informed us that they are currently in their soft opening period. We ended up getting the classic butter lobster roll, Maine style lobster roll, and a side of clam chowder. To top it off we were given coconut shrimp on the house. Everything was delicious! Will definitely come back again to try out their other food items.

    Classic Lobster Roll Combo
    Liz P.

    First time and, WOW, this place was a one man show literally! Ordering is an easy touch screen and easy to use. Place was clean and although minimal conversation which was understandable, the cook/server was on point! We ordered the classic lobster roll combo and it was delicious! Great portions and lots of lobster! Definitely will be back!!

    "Open every day 11am - 830p".  Not today it wasn't.
    Danny N.

    I really wanted to give this place a try after hearing RY from Rys Poke in North Shore opened it (Not sure if this is true). The shop probably operates on island time because it was closed at 730p even though the signs say open every day until 830p and google said 8p. A huge pet peeve of mine is wrong listed hours of operation. I took a peek inside and it was pitch black like the workers at left a while ago. Ry, not sure if you are reading this but you should definitely be checking on your workers or management team. Even recent google reviews are complaining of bad service.

    Daniele F.

    Today we tried this cute little pop up lobster place in BP before it opens fully soon. The lobster rolls were warm, buttery, lemony, and soft on these perfect rolls with old bay and green onion. They were very good. My son ordered the chicken tacos with pico de gallo, salsa, and lettuce. Tasty and delicious. The cashier/owner was so nice and ready to wait on us when we walked in. I can't wait to go back and try the other lobster sandwiches!!!

    Classic lobster roll.  Comes with small salad, warm butter, and a lemon wedge.

    It's Friday and I'd like to try new place for lunch. Found Loster Guys from yelp and decided to go. We ordered classic lobster rolls with 6 bone in wings. Price aligns with similar lobster roll places, slightly cheaper than famous lobsterroll truck actually. Rolls were good, wings are crispy. Restaurant is clean, staff is nice. No complaints. I am so happy to finally have a lobster roll place near home. Please support local business so we can enjoys lobster rolls whenever we want.

    We have a Classic Butter Lobster Roll Crab Grilled Cheese Soft Shelled Crab Sandwich and Calamari Fries.
    David S.

    I would give 10/10 for effort because this guy cooked everybody food and got busy. The sandwich and lobster roll were good but I think the lobster roll bread is decent. I would def give it a try if in the area but my favorite was the Crab Grilled Cheese with the tomato soup! See you soon

    If you like hot rooster you should try  Connecticut Style Lobster Roll

It's my go to seafood restaurant in Gardena, I'm glad I found this location in cypress. Everything was soo delicious and worth the price! The ambiance is casual and plenty of seatings! This location is huge! They have cute beach vibes inside! Good for any type of parties or celebrations. Service is amazing! Everyone was friendly. The server Sheena was very nice, helpful and recommended us the best deals! We came in an hour before they close and really appreciate her taking care of us! Crab shack is my favorite place and my go to if I'm craving seafood boil! Their crab shack style sauce is super delicious! I got mild because it can get really spicy. The flavors are definitely hitting! The portion is definitely good for sharing! I love the appetizer and other main dishes. Soo many options to choose from you definitely won't get bored! 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.

They definitely do not hold back on the garlic, which I loved. The garlic noodles were also incredibly buttery, flavorful, and downright addictive. 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. It's clear they genuinely care about their customers and making sure everyone has a great experience. Great food, amazing service, and consistently delicious flavors.

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. Overall, Fire Crab hits the craving well. Solid 4 stars all around! Service had great attitide!

    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.

It might be hard to find but it's located in the raising claw at the corner of the plaza! We got the premium set which came with SO much meat. The quality of all the meats were very good and diverse. 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 :).
