| - I'm a little surprised by the low rating for lbs. here, since I thought the food was (mostly) very good. But I will admit the pricing is a little on the high side, so perhaps that's the issue people are having. (I doubt I would ever return due entirely to those high prices.)
Anyway, I decided to order the Lobster Roll ("butter bun + lemon + old bay + mayo + fries + house salad"). At first glance, the lobster roll itself is very, very small. It's not even the length of a 6" sub, but, as I soon discovered, it's bursting with large pieces of lobster. The lobster is basically allowed to speak for itself, as the old bay seasoning is sparsely applied. It's delicious, undoubtedly. The butter bun is a perfect vehicle and I enjoyed the heck out of this thing.
The fries are quite good, too. Crunchy without being crispy, they arrived to the table piping hot and heavily salted. The salad was the weakest link here, to be sure. It's got these huge, leafy greens that are awfully difficult to comfortably eat, while the dressing is so simple and so subtle that it's almost non-existent.
So yeah, I enjoyed my meal quite a bit. But at $23 for a lunch portion, the pricing is just too prohibitively expensive to really justify a hearty recommendation.
