    Connecticut Roll
    Alli W.

    I'm a big fan! This super clean food truck is located right next to a little gathering area where locals play chess. Service: 5/5 Friendly, quick, and efficient. The food truck was also extremely clean and tidy, which says a lot about the food's quality. Food: 5/5 I must say it is pretty expensive since lobster rolls are around $25 at where I live. Connecticut roll was more than that without any sides. But there were 2 lobster claws meat in my roll so I can attest it's worth every penny. Paired with warm and buttered brioche? Add this onto your must-have meal in Morro bay.

    Cooling off on a hot day. Delicious!

    The lobster rolls were delicious, with tender juicy lobster. The roll was buttered and toasted perfectly. We tried both the Connecticut and Maine rolls. I preferred the Maine with the warm butter! The French fries were crisp and yummy. Quick service, each order is made to order. All is to go. We sat on the picnic tables outside and enjoyed the cool breeze and people watched so the ambiance was lovely. Only complaint was the "coleslaw" was undressed, plain cabbage and apple slices. Next time I will skip that. Will be back for another roll though!

    Lobster roll. This was the warmed kind. Hands down Exquisite!

    Came here on my birthday trip and this was one of the best spots we stopped at. The customer service is friendly and quick. The lobster rolls were exceptional. The location is on the main street downtown with so many shops and activities. They have public outdoor seating area, but you can easily walk down to the beach And enjoy a bite as well. These were so delicious, we got seconds to go for our drive down to LA and would actually consider taking a trip just to have another lobster roll. Thank you, Patrick and Josh for everything.

    The guy who runs this shop is a cute old man who was super polite. The lobster roll was pretty big and had a lot of lobster meat. I ordered the Maine style lobster. I've actually had lobsters from Maine before so I can compare. Although this isn't as good as the lobsters in Maine, it was still pretty good! So much lobster meat. The bread was nice as toasty and buttered. Nice creamy sauce on the lobster. Service was also great and I got my order within 10 mins of ordering.

    Oh my gosh! The lobster roll here is amazing. We were attended to promptly. Fortunately, there was a bench and table ready for us. It was a lovely day at the bay and it was a wonderful time to enjoy the lobster roll. You place your order at the window food truck and you find yourself a bench and table to enjoy your food.

    Lobster rolls from a mobile kitchen across from the harbor. The location is fab and next door to Sun-N-Buns Bakery which means you can follow your lobster roll with a cinnamon roll if you're feeling spiritually aligned. There are a few outdoor picnic-style tables, but you can also wander across the street and enjoy your feast with front-row views of Morro Rock. The menu keeps things simple: Connecticut and Maine lobster rolls, a shrimp roll, fries, slaw, and drinks. Prices are high, but you're in Cali and basically eating lobster on the bay which counts as a luxury experience in a region where lobster rolls are rare. Our Connecticut-style lobster rolls were generously packed with northeastern lobster drenched in warm butter, a little seasoning, lemon, and chives, all tucked into a buttered, grilled brioche roll. Every bite was buttery bliss. Just eat quickly because the seagulls have zero respect for personal boundaries.

    This lobster roll is to die for! We decided to split the Connecticut style roll and agreed that would could have eaten an entire roll ourselves. It's was mouth watering and delicious. Very rich, but left us wanting more. We visited on a Saturday, so parking was tough and my friend waited in the car while I ordered. There was a short line, but service was fast and came with a smile. There are picnic tables adjacent to the food truck and additional drinks/items available at the coffee shop on the same property. It's a great spot right on the Embarcadero, so great people watching and sightseeing. The total for our roll with no sides was $27 (before tip). It's a serious price, but worth the money. Highly recommend!

    I ordered the lobster mini roll (Maine style) with a side of slaw. It was hands down the BEST lobster roll I've ever had. The bun was buttery and toasted just right and the lobster was seasoned perfectly and DELICIOUS! The slaw tasted great too! The staff was friendly, helpful and accommodating. If I could give Morro Bay Lobster more than five stars I would. I definitely recommend and will definitely be back every time I visit Morro Bay!

    My favorite place to eat in Morro Bay. Amazing service and delicious high quality food. I will come eat here every time I visit this town. 10/10

    Connecticut Lobster Roll stuffed with sweet, fresh lobster meat with a side of their crispy yet tender fries.
    Terry C.

    Morro Bay Lobster's food truck is located on the side of the Sun N Buns Bakery on the Embarcadero. They are usually open Friday through Monday. Their menu is simple, offering Connecticut and Maine style lobster rolls as well as a California Shrimp roll. Minis (half the size) are also available. Seasoned Flat Fries and House Made Slaw are offered as sides. Portions are generous. The Connecticut style lobster rolls we ordered today were quite flavorful with large pieces of lump meat. A definite must try!

    Maine style Lobster roll
    Linda T.

    Patrick was the sweetest man helping me decide if I wanted the Connecticut style or the Maine style. The quality and freshness is definitely there and it's seasoned perfectly. The soft buttered bread complimented the already amazing lobster in the roll. I took a peek into their truck watching these 2 men cook and their truck was very clean inside. They worked fast and had my lobster roll ready in minutes. They're only open certain days of the week, so check their hours.

    Maine Lobster Roll
    Chinsin S.

    No notes. Seriously, no notes. My partner agrees. We ordered the Maine Style and California Shrimp at Morro Bay Lobster, a new food truck that just opened about 5 weeks ago, and got a side of seasoned flat fries. While the price tag was a bit high, we got some of the best seafood rolls of our entire lives. Money truly well spent. I'm salivating as I'm writing this review because my lobster roll was just beyond incredible. The lobster was moist, flavorful, and extremely rich in so many ways. The quality and freshness were just exceptional. Big fans. Let's just say it took all of our willpower to not order seconds. I have a feeling Morro Bay Lobster is going to do very well as people start discovering you and put you on the map! Oh, and it helps that Patrick, the owner I believe, and the chef were super kind, patient, and knowledgeable about their craft too! In addition to helping us with our order, they gave us additional backstory on their venture and some local recommendations too. If you're driving on Highway 1 and looking for a lobster roll, I strongly recommend checking out Morro Bay Lobster. They're awesome people serving high-quality seafood - the way it should be served! Today's lunch was the perfect casual meal to eat at the nearby benches on a nice summer afternoon. All we were missing was just a pint in hand!

    An absolute fabulous place to stop and get fresh lobster while visiting Morro Bay. I chose the warm buttery lobster roll with an apple coleslaw. The roll had generous portions of lobster which filled me up. The owner, "Jack" was there making the rolls-super friendly and nice.

    Connecticut Style.

When we entered the dog-friendly patio with our little Goldendoodle, Bailey, a large dog seated at the table closest to the only patio entrance lunged toward her and bared its teeth. Since it was the only way in and out, I let the staff know I was concerned. They immediately spoke with the owners, who moved their dogs farther under the table, and after our meal, the owner's father went above and beyond by opening the rope barriers so we could exit another way and avoid walking past them again. Both the father and son were incredibly kind, understanding, and accommodating, which we really appreciated. Once we were settled, we were able to enjoy the beautiful patio. It's a quaint waterfront spot with gorgeous views, a relaxing atmosphere, and the perfect setting to enjoy fresh seafood. Bailey was promptly brought a complimentary bowl of water, and we loved seeing so many other well-behaved dogs enjoying the patio. It's easy to see why this restaurant has such a great reputation for being dog friendly. We ordered the King Salmon Quesadilla special, and it was absolutely delicious. It was packed with generous portions of fresh salmon, plenty of melted cheese, and vegetables, and it was more than enough for my mom and me to share. My brother also really enjoyed the tri-tip sandwich. Everything tasted fresh and was served hot. While we wish the aggressive dogs had been seated somewhere other than the only entrance to the patio, that wasn't the restaurant's fault, and they handled the situation as well as they could. Between the excellent food, beautiful waterfront setting, dog-friendly atmosphere, and genuinely caring owners, we had a great overall experience and would happily return.

My partner got the bread bowl clam chowder and others in my party got the halibut fish tacos. The chicken strips were just basic regular chicken strips, but not bad. Those that had the clam chowder said it was "A+" and some said they really liked the large clam chunks in the chowder. The fish tacos had large pieces of fish and everyone was very happy with their tacos, some saying it was "to die for." We will definitely be back! The patio seating was lovely and they had live music that was such a nice touch. One of the employees was actively going around and cleaning tables and offering bowls of water to the dogs! She was super nice. Many of the patio tables also have small leashes so you could put your dog on that and not have the dog get all wrapped up in their regular leash. Very dog friendly! Highly, highly recommend. Edit to add a few details that are important to me but probably nobody else: 1. It is in easy reach of 2 pokestops and a power spot. 2. It has self-serve pump ketchup so you can get plenty

The food, though, was the only disappointment. Everything was fresh, but it lacked flavor. My boyfriend's pasta was very watery. I ordered the fish, which was cooked well, but it was so spicy that it covered the taste of the fish. The baked potato that came with it was just a plain potato with no seasoning at all. Overall, I'd give this place three stars. The service, atmosphere, and location were great, but the food just didn't live up to the rest of the experience.

    Had such a great experience at House Of JuJu, in Morro Bay California. The food was super yummy and…read morethe service was great our food came out fast, which I always appreciate. I ordered the Calamity Jane burger, and wow, it was absolutely delicious and HUGE. You will honestly get full after eating just half of it. I also got a side of their potatoes with the spicy garlic sauce for dipping, and it was so good. Definitely a must-order! They also had a great selection of sangrias, which was a nice bonus. The only thing I'd mention is that it can be a little pricey if you're dining solo, so if you're going on a date, be ready for your pockets to take a little dent. Next time I come back, I definitely want to try the shrimp tacos because they sounded amazing. I was torn between those and the burger, but I went with my default order.

Ordered cheeseburger with potatoes. Salad was "mixed greens" so I didn't order a salad. Next time I will get their wedge salad, but I didn't know if I could finish it with the burger and potatoes this time. Server said no fries or chicken strips becasue they don't have a fryer. Free refills for sodas, but only a little bit of ice. It was a bit syrupy and had a lack of carbonation, might have been Pepsi instead of Coke. Steak knife included with utensils, which came in handy because the burger was really slippery and I had to eat with a knife and fork!! Potatoes looked overcooked but that was because they are purple potatoes!! They tasted ok, luckily not too spicy like everything is these days. I liked the non-purple potato's texture better. Slow to refill my drink. I will come here again and have the wedge salad, from the pic it looks smaller than I expected this time around so it will be able to be eaten with a burger!!
