    Not our best experience there. Hostess staff was a mess. Waitress had too many tables, not enough attention. Oyster service was terrible - no spoon for sauces, no oyster fork, was told you didn’t have them. No plate until I asked. One pitiful oyster should not have been served. You should upgrade your wines by the glass. If I’m paying these prices for food, I’d pay $25 for a better glass of wine. Our fifth visit, but I’m not hurrying back anytime soon.

    We have always considered this restaurant to be one of our favorites. Unfortunately, dinner last evening was a huge disappointment. The service was not up to par, my lobster was tasteless, and the good took quite a while to be served. My husband’s food was cold. Off night, possibly, but got your prices and all the other dining choices around, Lobster Bar cannot afford an off night.

    Service was great. The lobster Thermidor was not really a lobster Thermidor. It was lobster soaked in lobster bisque and then covered with the crust. It is definitely not the traditional way to serve lobster Thermidor. The filet mignon and Brussel sprouts were great.

    The restaurant is very handsome and the service was excellent. My wife found her “cracked lobster” to be a “little tough”. The Caesar salad was skimpy for the price and the crouton was a bit stale. The South African lobster tails that I had was delicious and a decent portion . The side dishes of Brussels sprouts and a grain side were tasty but again skimpy for the price. Overall, the food ranges from good to very good but not a great value for the hefty price we paid. The restaurant is noisy and I had difficulty hearing my friends seated across the table which is never comfortable or pleasant. I know there are restaurants as good or better at a much better price.

    Although I typically order the seafood, I ordered the chicken yesterday. Absolutely amazing. Prepared to perfection. My compliments to the chef. The service by Olivier is outstanding.

    We’ve been to Lobster Bar several times and have never been disappointed. The atmosphere is great, the service is fantastic, and the food is outstanding. I tried the surf n’ turf for the first time with a filet and their signature lightly fried lobster tail and it was amazing!!!! Crème brûlée for desert was delicious and more than enough to share. I absolutely will be returning to get that again!!!

    The evening started out on a bad note because we had a reservation and still had to wait 20 mins for our table. Then the bread came out and it was not the delicious rolls we were used to. These were warmed up supermarket rolls and the tasted awful. We ordered our usual Dover sole and sea bass and the fish was delicious. However, the sea bass was a smaller portion than usual and was not served hot. Due to the tile ceilings the noise level is very high in this restaurant and that distracted from the high end experience. We have been to the restaurant many times and left disappointed.

    I had the waygu and South African lobster tail and my husband the waygu and Maine whole lobster. We shared the lobster mashed potatoes and sauted mushrooms. We began our meal with the crab cake and assorted oysters. My husband ended the evening with the exotic sorbet, but I was too stuffed. He said the passion fruit, mango, and banana was a refreshing palate cleanser. The food was exceptional, and the service was impeccable. Some diners were a bit noisy, but this didn't take away from the evening. The meal was expensive but a worthy splurge.
