Got the lobster roll in boss size and it was delicious! First time coming here and will definitely be back again (:

Such a good spot! We got the Mini Roll Trio and it was so good. The crab and lobster rolls were definitely our favorites. We also ordered the clam chowder, and wow... it was amazing! The flavor was delicious and the texture was perfect. The customer service was just as great as the food. Neo went above and beyond to make sure we had a great experience and really took care of us. We'll definitely be back the next time we're in La Jolla! read more

Lobster West - Mini roll trio - Seafood Near Me - San Diego, California

$30 for a lobster grilled cheese roll--I don't even know how much lobster was in it; you'd need a microscope to see it. It's really ridiculous--and I waited almost 30 minutes for it, even though the place was practically empty. That's really funny--they just took your money. If I could give a rating lower than 1, I'd gladly do it--it's awful. read more

The lobster was fresh and tasted really good, so no complaints about the quality. The lobster roll had a generous amount of meat and was definitely enjoyable. That said, I think the price is quite high for what you get. The place itself is very casual and simple, so considering the overall experience, the pricing feels a bit overpriced to me. read more

Lobster West - Crab roll & lobster roll with 2 sides - Seafood Near Me - San Diego, California

Been a while since I did a review for our $50 eating out (dinner or lunch date) for two and maybe the $50 is way too low now a days to get a decent meal for two. So tell me if I should increase our date budget to $75. Our total billed for 2 combo meal ((classic and boss) lobster and a soup is $68. Way over our $50 dinner date budget but I will not include pricing for this review. I give this 5 star for the taste and freshness of the lobster roll. The fried bread is not oily and the crunch is just right. Tastes just like the lobster roll from the east coast. The Clam Chowder and the Lobster Bisque were both tasty and matched well with the Lobster Roll. Great place to try in La Jolla. read more

Everything was amazing. Loved it. Auggie was the best. Adam was also so helpful and Will was a gem.

Stopped by for a scrumptious lobster roll. Since we don't get lobster rolls often, we opted for the Boss, which comes with 4.5 oz of meat (vs 3 oz for the Classic. We also got the flight of all 3 soups, which is served in Scoop sizes. Overall the food was delish. Lobster rolls was legit. The meat was fresh and plump. The brioche is done just like in Maine. We liked the chowder and the bisque but the crab soup was our least favorite. The service was courteous and prompt. We'd definitely come back next time we're in town and in the mood for some lobster! read more

Actually found this place on Yelp after wanting to try a lobster roll close to home. The space itself is clean, casual, and has that beachy, laid back vibe. Staff were friendly and helpful, even during a bit of a rush. Only downfall was that I had to stand and wait for a table to open up for a while, even with people sitting at tables that weren't dining there, they were just waiting for their food to go. The lobster itself tasted fresh and buttery, and you definitely get that rich, satisfying flavor you're hoping for. The bread was soft with a nice toast on it, which pulled everything together. That being said...for the price, I was expecting just a little more. The portion felt a bit on the lighter side, and I found myself wishing there was more lobster packed in there. Still, it hit the spot and I'd come back when I'm craving a good lobster roll without having to go somewhere super fancy or far. Overall: good food, nice vibe, just slightly pricey for what you get. But then again it's lobster and crab so expect to spend a little. read more

Loved the mom and pop shops feel of this restaurant. The flight of soup was wonderful to try all the varieties if you can't decide. The classic clam chowder is our favorite however all the soups had their fun flair. Thier soups are different from the other chowder joints. We enjoyed the uniqueness of each soup. The lobster roll was also bomb. Do try to stop by if you are in the area. read more

Our first stop in Coronado was at Lobster west and it definitely satisfied my craving. I got a crab roll with chips and slaw on the side. Make sure you get a side of their lemon tarragon aioli on the side! Our food came out very quick and staff was friendly. Love the beachy vibe. The only thing I would change is to maybe make it easier to order sides. I just would like one side but you have to choose two for an extra charge. (Bonus points because I saw the staff constantly checking food temps and cleaning) read more

Amazing lobster & crab rolls + family-owned gem! I had such a great experience at Lobster West. You can really tell it's a family-owned restaurant that takes pride in their food and service. Everything felt welcoming, fresh, and made with care. I ordered the lobster roll and crab roll, and both were delicious--super flavorful, fresh, and packed with seafood. The portions were very reasonable, and for the quality you're getting, the price felt really fair. The biggest surprise for me was the clam chowder--it was seriously so good that I ended up ordering a second portion because I couldn't get enough. Creamy, rich, and full of flavor. Overall, Lobster West is an awesome spot if you want fresh seafood, generous portions, and great value. I'll definitely be coming back! read more

Delicious lobster rolls and amazing service!! Great location so you can hit the beach after

Best lobster rolls in San Diego! I literally drove all the way out from Phoenix because I can't stop thinking about them. Cole was awesome and gave great customer service! We got the Epic lobster rolls and clam chowder soup. You HAVE to get the aoli they offer and put it on your roller. The combination of the lobster rolls, clam chowder, and aoli is just life changing. The lobster rolls are buttery and the lobster chunks are huge and juicy. There was so much lobster was falling out everywhere! I accidentally dropped some I almost cried. 1000000/10 will be back! read more

I had the clam chowder and my husband ordered the lobster roll, both were great. We sat outside under the string lights, and it was such a pretty, cozy setting. It really feels like a cute little hidden gem, and the staff was very kind and welcoming. Pro tip: if you cross the street and use the stairs to go up you can catch this sunset view ;) The only area for improvement would be the bathroom. I understand it's close to the beach, which can make upkeep challenging, but it was uncomfortable to use due to the dirty floor and lack of stocked supplies. read more

Editing to say it was clarified that the amount of lobster on the salad was not actually correct, so be sure it's 3 oz if you choose to order it. Mistakes happen. I will go back for the roll. Loved the lobster roll so much, came back a second day. Ordered the salad and what a complete rip off. Same price as the roll and less than half the lobster. They said it's half the lobster of the roll but this was def not the case this time. Salad was so over salted and peppered it was hard to taste the lobster anyway. Avoid the salad and order the lobster roll on a bed of lettuce instead if you prefer to forego the bread and don't want to leave hungry. read more

Food is delicious a good customer service first time here got recommended by a friend and really enjoyed our food

We were grabbing lunch in La Jolla and Lobster West was one of our stops. We've only had lobster rolls at one other spot in La Jolla so we decided to try this restaurant out to compare. - PARKING - Street parking, be mindful of any time limitations or metered parking! - SERVICE/ENVIRONMENT - Small seating area on the patio/deck outside, and 1-2 small tables inside. We went pretty close to opening, but the staff was welcoming and tended to us right away. After we ordered, it didn't take too long for the food to come out. - FOOD - Soup Trio: We wanted to get a taste of all their soups, so we opted to get the trio. I personally liked the Clam Chowder the most, then the Lobster Bisque, and then the Maryland Crab Soup. They were all delicious though! Maine Event: Similar to the soups, we also wanted to try all of the rolls. My order of preference was the Lobster Roll, then the Crab Roll, then the Shrimp Roll. I do think we could have gotten more meat on each of the rolls, but they were still good. I also enjoyed the extra side of butter as well as their special tarragon aioli they had available. - OVERALL - Pretty solid spot for seafood rolls and soup! read more

Lobster West - Seafood Near Me - San Diego, California

We stopped at this lobster spot in La Jolla with a big group, looking for a fun little snack, and decided to try their sampler which came with a lobster roll, crab roll, and shrimp roll. We also ordered the clam chowder and lobster bisque. Overall, everything was good, but I can't say it was the best. The lobster roll was decent, but I've definitely had better elsewhere. The lobster bisque was a bit disappointing since it didn't have any lobster pieces and felt a little chunky. The clam chowder lacked flavor for me, especially since I've had a lot of really great clam chowders before. That said, the rolls were lacking, however the aïoli they offered was a nice touch, we ended up using it on our bread since I felt the rolls could've used more butter and lemon or some flavor. The restaurant itself was clean and offered free water, which was a plus. They had outdoor seating both in front and along the side of the restaurant, which was great for our big group, and there was even a restroom inside, something super convenient in that area since bathrooms are hard to find when walking around. Customer service was excellent. The girls who took our orders were very friendly and helpful, so no complaints there at all. For me, it just came down to the flavors... I was hoping for a little more richness, especially in the bisque and chowder. All in all, a nice stop with good service and a clean setup, but flavor-wise, I've had better seafood spots read more

$19 for a lobster grilled cheese. Flavor was good and the cheese was mild to my liking. Size was kind of small so I would say that it is the perfect snack rather than a meal. Overall a good experience. read more
