| - My wife and I were in Las Vegas recently, and I found Lobster Me at the Milennium Shops attached to Planet Hollywood by googling "Best Lobster Roll Las Vegas." My wife is allergic to lobster, so I don't get a lot of lobster rolls at home. Not that I could anyway - we live in San Diego, where good lobster rolls are hard to come by. That's why I googled away - I had some time, and, having spent some time in Northern New England, I love a good lobster roll.
I tried "The Original 'Maine Style" lobster roll, which the menu describes as "Maine Lobster served with a touch of mayo and lemon and topped with our secret spice blend." Additionally, the menu notes that "all rolls [are] served on our toasted, New England-style, split-top bun." Big chilled chunks of lobster meat, perfect claw pieces on top, the mayo, the aroma of butter, the bun itself - it was great and it really hit the spot.
Was this the best lobster roll I'd ever had? No, but I'm in Las Vegas a lot more often that I'm in Maine, and this roll was exactly what I wanted. This roll was also powers of ten better than what I can find in my home city. I'm already looking forward to going back again the next time I'm in town. Other items on the Lobster Me menu sounded great, including the other varieties of lobster rolls and especially the breakfast options, but I will probably get the classic Maine Style roll next time too.
