The spicy butter honey rolls have always been my favorite. I take a bite and I kid you not: it never fails to disappoint me. Fresh and delicious, love the flavor, and I get different parts of the lobster.
Today, I was feeling under the weather and decided to treat myself to the typical; however, was blown away by their attention to detail, care, and service.
Thank you to Margaux and Joe (the GM) for making my day. I will come back for the rolls, rain or shine! -MTG

Food was very good, though not exceptional. Everything was fresh and well prepared, and I would still recommend it to a friend. Service was fast, reliable, and genuinely friendly, which made the overall experience enjoyable.

I found Luke’s Lobster after Yelp-searching “best restaurants” in the Philly area. They weren’t in the top 10 but had a high amount of reviews and star average.
ATMOSPHERE:
Low tops dominate the space with countertop seating offering views of passersby. The place was clean and cool. A single bathroom was available in the back.
MENU:
Soup, salad, lobster/crab/shrimp rolls. Beverages are juice, tea, Diet Coke and root beer. They’re also BYOB.
FOOD:
The Luke Trios + Soup + Drink
The trio is comprised of their three rolls of crab, lobster and shrimp. I made it a combo by adding a drink and soup of Clam Chowder. Though the rolls looked small, they were piled high with cholesterol! The crab and lobster were my favorites, very fresh and lightly seasoned which brought out their natural flavors. I like shrimp but these are the little ones which were boiled (my least favorite preparation) and were too underdone for me. Butter was prevalent in every bite, from the bread to the drizzle on top. The clam chowder was hot and creamy, chocked full of potatoes and a few bits of clam. For my beverage I chose the Sweet Leaf Tea-brand of black leaf lemonade which was very refreshing and low on sugar. Highly recommended.
Poppyseed Slaw – Not available. Boo for my spouse.
SERVICE:
Order at counter and the food is brought to you. After you’re done, you clean up after yourselves. The staff were friendly and patient.
OVERALL:
My months of healthy eating went down the drain in a mere half hour.

Stopped in for a post dinner “snack” lol. Had the lobster slider trio, which was a lobster roll sampler of three half-rolls: lemon butter, spicy honey butter, and truffle butter w/ chips and a soft drink. The rolls had nice big chunks of lobster. My fave was the truffle butter!
Also tried the clam chowder which was hearty and satisfying also. The staff working was very nice, even though we were there near closing. Pro tip: get the rolls toasted!
If you’re curious, there’s more about these on my YouTube channel and tik tok @RossEats

I am a big fan of lobsters and it’s so hard to find a lobster roll in Philly. So after reading the reviews, I decided to give it a try. I got the lobster roll flight – three lobster rolls with different sauce on top. I also asked them to be served warm. The flight comes with a bag of chip and soda from Maine. Poppyseed coleslaw is an add on and quite delicious. Overall, the lobster rolls are just delicious and I love all 3 sauces. The quality of lobster meats is even better than regular lobster roll shop at Maine. Would definitely recommend lobster lovers to give it a try!

Nice to have a spot that carries lobster rolls year round. I guess they are typical size. Most lobster rolls are pretty small in size. Loads of lobster meat so that’s a plus. It’s a lobster roll so not much but lobster butter and seasoning to taste/top off.

I have been to other Luke’s lobster location, this one is paritcularly spacious and food quality is consistent. I got the warm lobster roll, spicy honey lobster roll, and lobster mac.
Most of the rolls are cold, so it is nice to try the warm lobster roll and have to order one of my favorites – spicy honey lobster roll as well. Lobster Mac on the other hand is alright, the pasta they used is quite unique but flavor wise is just okay, and not a huge fan of the breadcrumbs on top.
