    This food truck show up at the Asian festival on the past week end. I always look be to have New England type lobster roll. This will serve the purpose of my craving. The roll cost $14. They did advertising 4oz roll which I did not paid attention. What the roll actually comes with is 4 oz of lobster meat and the remaining fillings is imitation crab meat. Which most expensive that I have don't have full roll with lobster meat. I would have reading the fine print which most of us not catching it. I would rather they charge us higher price with full lobster meat. The roll did pack with a lot of imitation crab meat. Overall look good. It does have good ratings in Yelp. They do carry some lobster bisque and blue crab meat roll. Food truck is decent but I would just give options for full lobster meat.

    Went to food truck night in metro west. Monsta lobsta was there. My boyfriend and I decided to get a soup to try. We ordered the spicy lobster bisque. It wasn't anything special. It was a tiny bit spicy. There was not really much of any lobster in it. It tasted like store bought lobster bisque. Wouldn't try again.

    This truck is full of delicious things!

    Mouthwatering chunks of lobster meat kissed lightly with a bit of mayo and lemon seasoning then served on a warmed and buttered roll. Wow. It's like I'm in the Maine...but surprisingly it's right here in Central Florida. Every time I see this food truck I have to stop and get a lobster roll. Tonight I made a u-turn when I drove by their food truck in Maitland. What a happy surprise to find them hanging out by Lake Lilly. Besides the lobster roll Monsta Lobsta also sells crab rolls and lobster bisque. There is a roll on the menu called "indecision" which is half crab and half lobster, haven't tried it yet but sounds wonderful. If you like lobster this is what you want, a roll busting at the seams with big, fresh pieces of lobster. It's so decadent!

    Well, it looked delicious and had large chunks of lobster on top but underneath was some sort of strange salad that had chunks of some other off tasting seafood - like maybe calamari or even the fake stuff. I am from the east coast and am used to having real lobster throughout. I had to brush my teeth afterwards from the imitation seafood taste. I would have rather had a smaller portion of real lobster then have it mixed with a product that I don't eat.

    Someone's photo mentioning imitation crab, the next picture I circled fine shreds , lobster meat does not shred like that.

    There is a reason they probably spelled the Lobsta with an A at the end on instead of ER because underneath the claw meat there are peices of meat that are perfectly circular, there is not a single part of the lobster that would produce a perfectly circular piece of meat. Now I speak about this because of my close connection to New England especially lobsters. Having been born and raised in Rhode Island and while in culinary school I worked in restaurant in East Greenwich Rhode Island called The Harborside Lobstermania we're on Friday and Saturday nights they had a special of twin boiled broiled or baked lobster is and we would do over 600 lobsters at night. So I have seen more than my fair share of lobsters as a matter of fact on my Instagram I have a video of how people can tell the difference between a male and a female. https://www.instagram.com/p/BiyKxDeDQ4e/?igshid=gakku8um4fwq Here is how to prepare lobster: https://www.instagram.com/p/BiyICsvDgDX/?igshid=1eek6yyucmqu2 Oh that perfectly round piece of meat is but looks like surimi white fish extruded under high pressure with potato starch or some other kind of filler binder hydrocolloid .The other part about using surimi is that the red coloring that's on the top of it is called carmine, this color pigmentation is produced from some scale insects such as the cochineal. So to charge $24 for a roll that has imitation crab on it is a little bit of a Monsta rip off!

    Lobster roll deserves a selfie!

    The best lobster roll for me by far!!! The only problem is i cant seem to get a hold of their food truck. Its hard to keep track of their locations. I wish they would open a small spot here in central orlando.

    If you're a lover of lobster or crab then this is where you need to eat. Actually, that's the beginning and the end of their menu! That's all they need to serve because they have the best lobster roll on wheels in central Florida. Their roll has no fillers and no dressing at all. Just fresh lobster meat. For me though I enjoy a bit of mayo or something wet as I need something to hold it all together. No fear!! In comes their killer lobster bisque. Ask for your roll "smothered" and you'll have the best of both worlds. It's rich, delish and oh my goodness filling. You get a bang for your buck and if you can't get enough, they have not 1 but 2 trucks! It's not unusual to see them in a city one day and another city the next. Or both trucks at 2 different rally's in the same city. They're like Mighty Mouse...they're everywhere, they're everywhere!

    Why have I waited so long to try you, Monsta Lobsta?! Oh MY!!!! I got the 4oz roll and a cup of their Lobster Bisque...both were amazing. ($15 total) Lobster Roll: Buttered and toasted New England split top, packed with chilled lobster salad. 99.8% Lobster meat, hint of lemon, mayo and scallions. I do not like mayo or scallions, so I was very happy that there were only a few scallion slices for me to pick out. Mayo was not discernible in look or taste, so perfect for me. Lobster was moist, sweet and fresh tasting....and there was a TON of it on my "4oz" roll. Better than some of the rolls I've enjoyed on the Cape or NE, for sure. Bisque: Wow. Really very good. Lobstery and heavy on the heavy cream, so ultra rich. The portion size is perfect for the richness of the bisque. Hint of sherry, flecks of lobster meat throughout. A+ The guys were super friendly and fun to chat with while waiting at the window. I'm sad that I'm finished with lunch and cannot wait to visit Monsta Lobsta again!

    Lots of seating between the food trucks. Plenty of shaded tables for sitting. $5 parking right…read morebehind or free across the street with a small walk. Surely, you can find something that you'll like here as there's plenty of variety. Don't recommend for the middle of the summer when is scorching hot, as there's no A/C or indoor seating available.

    I loveeeee this place. It's a MUST every time we visit Orlando! There are over 50 food trucks to…read morechoose from, so no matter what you're craving, they probably have it. I had been craving fresas con crema for the longest, and I ended up getting them almost every night that weekend. My favorite was the Fresas con Crema Raffaello. I will say, though, it can get pricey, so don't expect to spend just a few bucks. The fresas con crema alone were over $18 lol. The service really depends on which truck you visit, but for the most part everyone has been friendly. The atmosphere is super chill, there's plenty of seating, and they have trash bins throughout the area. It's mostly clean, although there are a few spots that smell like straight-up trash. They also have free parking behind Denny's and paid parking right next to the food trucks. Save yourself the $6-$10 and park behind Denny's, you can put that money toward a drink instead! I seriously love this place and will always make room for it in my itinerary whenever I'm in Orlando. The fact that they're open until 2 a.m. is just another bonus!
