    Lobster roll with 8oz of lobster meat.

    Overall - 10/10 Food - 10/10, if you love lobster like me, this is exactly what you would hope for but even better. Very generous portions and amazing price for what you get. Loved every bit of it, thank you Maine Line staff! Service - 10/10, honestly some of the best service ever. Super sweet, kind, interested In how I heard of them, where I was from, and even gave me a free whoopie pie. Atmosphere -N/A, can't really rate as it's a food truck. Was at UTC mall with a bunch of other food trucks when we found it.

    This place is the real deal! Deliciously fresh lobster served on a delicious roll . The service was phenomenal; great conversation along with the speed at which I was served; less than 5 mins from the time I ordered; I had my food in hand and was ready to sit down and eat! If you are from the north east or just a seafood lover I would 100% suggest going to this place. You will come back over and over; I know I will!

    Stumbled upon this great food truck at the Longboat Key Market. Great clam chowder - creamy & very flavorful with lots of clams. Lobster roll was one of the best I have ever had - large pieces (and lots of them!). Definitely recommend trying them out!

    We came here for my sons birthday. Great Choice!!! My son and I shared the 1 lb. Lobster roll which comes with a cup of clam chowder,crackers ,2 potato chips, bib and two side orders of cold slaw. This is called the Maniac roll and for good reason. It costs $59.95 and is the best deal on their menu. The Lobster Rolls are to die for. Served on a delicious roll the lobster melts in your mouth. We opted for the warm lobster served with butter. They are Super nice Mainers who serve you with a smile and terrific service. They serve only claws in their rolls and the meat is flown in 2 or 3 times a week from Maine. They are usually in two locations each day. One for lunch and one for dinner. Locations are usually in Sarasota and Venice . They post these every week on Facebook. If you love authentic Lobster Rolls , this is definitely the place to get them.

    SO GOOD!!!!! 10/10 for the warm lobster roll. Perfect flavor. So fresh and yummy. I also got to sample the clam chowder and WOW!! Will definitely be ordering it next time. Highly recommend!!

    Hot Lobster Roll (4 full ounces of lobster claw), Chips, butter & slaw. Yummmmmmm

    Doesn't get much better than this! Simply the best lobster roll in the USA (yep even beats every place in New England. I'm addicted to not only the food but the amazing ladies that prepare it with a smile and warm welcome to everyone! Constantly moving locations, because, yes, it's a food truck!

So I thought I HAD to give it a second visit and see if my first time was just a lucky chance. Well, I went today for brunch and experienced another 5 star meal. Since it was as great a meal today, I'll comment on behalf of both. Greeted IMMEDIATELY upon entering the restaurant by a friendly up beat employee. The restaurant was very clean and seemed to be operating at a smooth pace. We were led to our table and handed our menus. Our server was with us almost immediately, smiling and greeting us to the restaurant. Menus were handed out and our questions were answered. We had 5 people in our party and ordered 4 blackberry Bellinis and I had a coffee old fashioned. We ALL raved about our drinks and after a few more questions, we ordered our meals: Crab Cake Benedict, Smoked Salmon Benedict, Chicken Sandwich and a Philly Steak Sandwich. All I can say is that EVERY plate was EMPTY! We ALL LOVED our food! It was hot, fresh tasting and delicious flavors. Even the fries were hot, crisp, fresh and seasoned perfectly. Forgot, Two of our party members ordered the wild mushroom torte, and...NOTHING left on the plate!! Our food was so awesome that we had to try 2 desserts: Vanilla Bean Crème Brûlée and the Carrot Cake and yes...they were demolished and joined the 'Clean Plate Club'!!!!! EVERYTHING WAS OUTSTANDING AND EVERYONE IN OUR PARTY LEFT WITH AN AMAZINGLY AWESOME EXPERIENCE! GREAT job by EVERYONE WHO WORKED TODAY. Mic drop experience and I can't wait to go back!!!

There was a little bit of a wait, so my husband and I went to the bar to grab a drink as our group was big. Bar staff were super fast getting a drink. Staff was very friendly. Once we sat down, service was efficient and amazing. The complementary fish dip was really good and everything that we ordered was fresh. As always, we over ordered and I took back half of our food to the timeshare and reheated the next day and it was still just as good . wish we could have gotten there for a second time. The only regret was we had to sit outside in the 95° weather in August but since we also live in Florida, we just put up with it. Great spot

I'd have that anytime. I'm a convert. I had a shrimp Po' Boy and my girlfriend, the grouper Reuben sandwich. I could wholeheartedly recommend either. It was a very tasty visit. I commend Walt's and will be back.
