Lobster in a brioche bun – just genius. They tasted SO good together, and a salad leaf added a special freshness to the sandwich. The place is quite small but it’s worth your attention! Hidden local gem. Quality food, kind service, much quieter place than any other loud touristy restaurant. The young man working there is veeery friendly, he really takes care of everyone entering his place, he gave us so many tips about the island, as well 🙂

What a hidden gem in cozumel mexico! Looking for lobster and Guacamole.. this is the place! If you love the original boston lobster roll, then try the next best Mexican version! Grilled to perfection. Just empty plates say it all

The Lobster in Roll was special. Very simple, what makes it delicious and tasty.
I am happy also to add a new country “Syria” on the visiting list map.
Thanks for the delicious food and kindly service

Great food and the nicest service, really loved the entire experience. Loved my lobster roll and the salsas.
Cocktails a little too sweet for European taste so you might want to ask for a little less sugar or more ice.

Fernando is a true hero of Cozumel
If you want to experience the real heart of Cozumel, go to Lobster Shack and meet Fernando.
From the moment we arrived, Fernando treated us not like tourists, but like old friends. Warm, genuine, and incredibly kind — no pressure, no upselling, no asking for tips. Just pride in his food and love for sharing it.
The lobster was fresh, perfectly cooked, and honestly one of the best seafood meals we’ve had on the island. Simple, honest flavors done right. You can taste that this is food made with care, not for show.
What really made the experience unforgettable was Fernando himself. He represents the best of Cozumel — hardworking, welcoming, humble, and proud of his craft. This is the kind of place you remember long after the trip ends.
If you’re in Cozumel and you skip Lobster Shack, you’re missing something special. Fernando isn’t just serving food — he’s sharing a piece of the island.
Thank you, Fernando. You are a legend.

The best lobster in town. We decided to stop by before leaving for our trip, and we were not disappointed at all! The lobster was so fresh and tasty. The coleslaw and side of tortillas were a perfect fit. The owner was very friendly and explained to us how this all began for him. A must try if you attend the island. The roll is made of hotdog buns like the one we eat. You can also have it in a bowl or burrito. There’s also options with fresh shrimps or steak at a very good price. The menu is accurate and not expensive. Well done!

Absolutely perfecto! So fresh, perfectly cooked, and lots of savory goodness! The lobster was so soft and buttery and the steak (I had a surf n turf burrito) was also tasty. It’s a nice touch to brown a side of the burrito, adding a touch of crunch. This place checked all the boxes for all four of us, even though we all had something different. Super filling and worth every penny-speaking of which, the price was quite reasonable as well. The Chef deserves high praise-he takes pride in his creations with limited space, he manages a masterpiece. The owner was great fun as well, very gracious and even made my husband a nice drink to help with his hangover . Ok, confession time-I don’t usually like lobster, but this place has completely changed my mind. Delicious!

So much attention to detail. The staff is very friendly, very quiet, and the food is so damn good. Best lobster roll on the island, at least. Also grab a coconut margarita, yum.

We stopped at this little gem on our day trip to Cozumel. My husband and I ordered the bacon lobster rolls and they were delicious! We had amazing service and got our food quickly. If we’re ever back in the area, we will definitely stop again!

Excellent spot for a lobster roll. Owner is super friendly, and the food was amazing! We had the surf and turf roll, and shrimp with lobster roll and the meat was well-cooked, the rolls were fluffy and nicely toasted, and were appropriately buttery. Prices were VERY reasonable. We will definitely return!
