So I placed an Uber eats order. Now the food came warm. The clam chowder did not miss a beat! I was actually so disappointed I didn’t get a large. The Lobster roll was ok. I wasn’t a fan of the bread. The taste instantly remained me of hotdog bread. The lobster it self was tasteful. I’ll deff be back for the soup!

After a morning exploring the American Museum of Natural History, I headed straight for Luke’s Lobster nearby—and I’m so glad I did! The staff greeted me with such friendliness, making the cozy spot feel instantly welcoming.
I ordered the classic lobster roll, and it was everything I hoped for. The roll was perfectly toasted and buttery, holding a generous helping of fresh, sweet lobster meat. Every bite was packed with flavor—just a touch of mayo, a sprinkle of lemon butter, and a hint of seasoning that let the natural taste of the lobster shine. It was simple, fresh, and absolutely delicious. The portion was just right, and the lobster tasted so good I found myself savoring every bite.
Luke’s Lobster is the perfect stop for a quick, satisfying meal near the museum. The quality of the seafood really stands out, and the friendly staff make the experience even better. If you’re in the area and craving something special, don’t miss this spot—the lobster roll is a must-try and definitely left me wanting to come back for more!

I discovered this place in DC and I wanted to have it again while in NY. I wish the lobster had been warm. It was a cold day and having it cold was not what I was expecting. I’ll come back though!

Luke’s Lobster on the Upper West Side is a fantastic spot for fresh, quality seafood in a casual and enjoyable setting. The lobster rolls are the real deal — generous, flavorful, and worth every penny. The atmosphere has that relaxed New England seafood shack charm that works perfectly for the concept. Service was a bit inconsistent and could be more attentive, but it didn’t take away too much from an otherwise great experience. A go-to for lobster rolls in the neighborhood.

Popped in for lunch and boy was this a great choice. The lobster and seafood roll options were incredible. There was even a children’s portion on the menu. I had the Lobster Flight and devoured it. Everything our group ordered came with chips and a drink which was a bonus. It’s small and seating is limited, but the food will have you coming back. There is also the option to order to go.

My go-to anytime I’m in town. The white truffle is absolutely amazing, and so is the spicy honey! We got 6oz rolls, but you can also choose a 4oz. The clam chowder is delicious with plenty of clam!

Honestly was pleasantly surprised. Stopped by after a long walk in Central Park. Ordered the medium size lobster roll. Got a pretty good size and quality roll. Great taste, came also with good vinegar chip and a blueberry drink! Going back. Kinda pricey as I paid +$40 but it is good!

I went there yesterday for lunch and asked for a recommendation. The classic lobster roll tastes super fresh and delicious and was filled with plenty of lobster (even though I ordered a small one). I also enjoyed the clam chowder, which I’ve never tried before (I’m from Europe, only used to bouillabaisse). Great place!

Was in the Harlem area and had a craving for a lobster roll. I’ve heard lots about Luke’s Lobster, decided to make a quick stop. The cashier was friendly and took time to explain the menu. Decided on the original lobster roll made it a meal with chips and rose wine to drink. The 4oz lobster roll was ($23) plus the rose ($8). Overall it was okay. Not my favorite. I have a preference for the rolls chilled with mayo that I’ve had in front of Brooklyn Museum one summer from Cousins Maine Lobster truck which was spectacular. This one just wasn’t quite that.
The lobster meat however was plentiful and juicy. However, there was a mistake on my roll because it wasn’t buttered. So the bread was just toasted and dry which was off-putting. I noticed the comments about the price and definitely wanted to chime in on that. Because yes, the price for such a small roll is pretty high. (I know, I know, it looks huge in the photo..it wasn’t). But if you’re feeling fancy and want a snack to share, it could be for you. Just don’t buy the wine, just acid in a can. It was very acidic, watery and slightly tart. Not enjoyable. I trashed it.
The area was small and neat. The staff were friendly. The woman who prepared the food was also very friendly. So overall, I’d rate here 4.3 stars. Mostly based on preference and total satisfaction for the price.

Wow! The food here is delicious. We started with 2 lobster rolls with the coleslaw and lobster mac n cheese. They were so good. We enjoyed the food so much, we ended up ordering a crab roll before leaving, absolutely worth it.
