Burger & Lobster - Flatiron

Burger & Lobster serves up the best fare from land and sea in its high-ceilinged, wood-furnished establishment. The menu is very simple and is composed of two items - the burger and the lobster, both of which are served with fries and a salad. The burger is a juicy, 10 ounce beef burger topped with bacon and cheese. The lobster comes in two variations - a whole lobster that has been steamed and can also be grilled should you choose, served plain or with luscious lemon garlic butter. You can also order a tender lobster roll with a touch of Japanese mayo, served on a toasted roll. There are plenty of choices for drinks, with an extensive menu devoted to wine, beer and cocktails to pair with your entree. At Burger & Lobster, quality is key and it has guests returning time and again.

    I’ve been going to B&L since they opened in 2015 and I’ve always had amazing experiences. In fact, this has been a “must-have” during every trip to NYC. That being said, I was disappointed to see the increase in cost for the lobster roll meal, especially with the deletion of the previously-included side salad. At the end of the day, we had two lobster rolls with fries and two soft drinks and the bill was $75.12 (~$90 with tip). I’m not sure if we’ll return next visit for this reason.

    Had the lobster Caesar salad. Lobster tail was okay but salad was literally just chopped chunks of lettuce with a scoop of unusual dressing. Crouton - bread sticks were good. $25 salad, not impressed.

    I had last minute plans for Mother’s Day. My planned activity was canceled. They accommodated my son and I. I was given a glass of champagne for free. The food was delicious and even enjoyed dessert. I went to the other location near Times Square but it was smaller. I will be back her again.

    Had a wonderful dinner. Each of the 3 ordered a different entre and we all were very satisfied and quite happy. We had a lobster roll, the classic entre and lobster and burger. special. A lot of food, served to enjoy. Our waitress Ashley was special and knew all the answers to our questions and will definitely return and maybe invite some more friends to join us.

    Maybe a good place to have lunch but not dinner - this is overpriced for we have on the plate… 140 bucks for only 1 entree (4 people) is way pricey!!!!! Will reconsider going again…

    Oh my goodness! With so many choices in the area it was difficult to decide, but we are so glad we chose Burger & Lobster! The food was delish as were the drinks! Chris was a terrific waiter and all the servers were top notch! We were greeted with a terrific welcome and felt just as special when we left. Can’t wait to go back!

    Good Morning. I have been to this restaurant at least 5 times and each time I am excited and amazed at the quality, and flavor of the food and the enthusiasm of the staff. Last night I had the pleasure of being served by Karen, she was attentive, funny, and charming. it was my 55th birthday and she made me and my guest feel special. Karen is the embodiment of professionalism and happiness. She loves what she does and that is a rarity.

    Food was pretty decent but came out a little cold. Menu was incorrect stating that you got fries AND a salad but then staff said its fries OR salad (big difference). Service was terrible, rude, inattentive and forgetful. Very sketchy also that my date and I both got fraudulent charge notifications when we paid... We were asked to go to the cash register and enter our pin which I have never experienced at a sit down restaurant... Weird all around.

    Disappointing. We went to the Drag Brunch and I made reservations for a birthday celebration for my friend. When we got there the staff asked me if I was celebrating a birthday. I told them yes as I indicated in the reservation. Nothing was done to honor or acknowledge my friend's birthday. In addition, we asked for salad with our entrees and neither one of us received it. The food was good as always, but it would have been nice to get what I asked for.

    We enjoyed a delicious meal here - the lobster roll was really moist and tasty - with a delicious lemon butter sauce! It was not very busy which was good for us. The music was a bit too loud - but when we asked them to turn it down, they did a bit.

    The hostess sat us in the far back corner room. This room had no visibility from the staff. I asked if we could be seated in a an area where we would be seen better and the hostess told me that there’s nothing they could do. She said she couldn’t honor the reservation because of the amount of walk-ins. We were assured that we would have good service if sat there - in reality, they barely came to check on us.
