| - Rock Lobster, thank you for making lobster affordable and trendy. I would not associate the word "cheap" with Rock Lobster because when I think of cheap lobster, I think of getting an entire lobster at Chinatown for $20. Rock Lobster is certainly not in that category and I would describe it as being classy but down-to-earth at the same time.
The restaurant has a patio in the back, but it we went on a rainy day, so we took a seat inside. The atmosphere is very loud making the restaurant lively, but it makes for poor dinner conversations. Thanks goodness it wasn't a date, and I had no interest in what my friend was saying... sorry Francis P. (just kidding).
We shared the Crow's Nest, which is a pot of seafood steamed with Steam Whistle beer, and I'm not s huge Steam Whistle beer fan but boy does it work well with the seafood. The heartiness of the beer works perfectly in the seafood pot mix. It was super filling for 2, in addition to the poutine and taco that we ordered. The taco was my favourite part of the meal, and if I were to come back I would order smaller dishes rather than the pot, although the pot was something we just had to try since we were there. Another must-try is the lobster caesar, not being a huge caesar fan, I have to admit this one definitely has my approval.
