| - I've passed by lbs several times and because I absolutely love seafood (and lobster), I've been meaning to try out their food for some time. Also, I love controversy and there was recently some controversy on how lbs kill their lobsters.
So, even though lbs's specialty is lobsters, their Summerlicious lunch menu lacked ANY lobster. I don't even think their dinner menu had lobster. But it's okay because it's SuMMerLicIOUS.
I came here with a friend during my lunch break around 11:45. The interior of the restaurant is very nice and way fancier than I thought it would be. (I mean, it's located in the PATH and across a Pizzaiolo). It had a nice blue and white kind of wash, which is very expected of a seafood restaurant, but I loved it. Great ambience. It got super packed around 12:30 and there was no wonder why I had to make reservations two days in advance.
I ordered:
Appetizer - Smoked fish rillets
This was good! The bread was really crumbly and melted in your mouth. I could have eaten more and more of this.
Entree - Fried chicken
NOT a fan of this dish. The djon mustard overpowered the cabbage way too much and it had a wasabi/spicy kind of after-taste. The fried chicken was alright. Honestly, I only ordered this because I didn't think their other seafood dishes would be filling. I REALLY wanted to order the PEI mussels because I've been to PEI and binge ate ALL THE MUSSELS, but I was quite hungry and not in a mood for tasty but not filling.
Dessert - Strawberry shortcake ice cream sandwiches
My friend joked, "Straight out of the freezer" because these sandwiches were really hard. The sandwiches were made out of, I don't know, seemed like a pie crust that was hardened in the fridge. It was pretty good, although I imagined "strawberry shortcake ice cream sandwiches" as fresh strawberries and vanilla ice cream in between "sandwiches". But it wasn't. It was a vanilla ice cream in between sandwiches with a strawberry coulis at the bottom of the plate.
Overall, I think I set myself up for failure and I'm kind of disappointed in myself for not ordering those PEI mussels. I WANT THOSE PEI MUSSELS NOW. I'm not sure if lbs should have chosen a better menu for their Summerlicious because I don't think it was at all representative or a taste of what their real menu was like.
Meh, oh well. If there is a next time, I will order some lobster.
TLDR; If you go to a seafood restaurant, don't order non-seafood stuff.
