Best lobster roll ever. My husband and I both ordered it cold. It was full of fresh, cold, large chunks of lobster, celery, a bit of mayo and black pepper. Served on a potato bun that's grilled in butter. Mmmmm We also had the chowder, fries and a cold Sumner brew on tap. Sat outside on a lovely summer evening eating delicious food. Not much is better than that. Highly recommend.

I had a hankering for seafood this afternoon - the kind of craving that nags and nags at you until you finally break down and give in. And after dining here, I glad I caved in to my desires.This place is relatively new to the Huntington area and is located in a weird spot. The parking lot is around on the far backside of the building; in fact, there are two parking areas - a paved lot, and a dirt field. A piece of plyboard with the words "Parking for D.J's Only" spray painted on it told me I was in the right spot.Once inside, the space feels cozy and very Summer Dive Bar'ish', with surfboards, press-metal signs and neon advertisements showing off beach lagers and surf brews. The tables are spacious and the chairs are comfortable. Then there was the lady at the counter, Alicia, who was super accommodating and very pleasant. She made me feel right at home from the moment I walked in until the moment I left.I ordered a beer (it was after noon, so why the hell not?) and the Shrimp Po-boy and Soup combo. Everything came out relatively quickly.The soup, New England Clam Chowder, was excellent. Creamy, well seasoned and loaded with clans in every bite. The Po-boy was very good, but one critique I have to make is that it is not a Po-boy. It is a Shrimp Sandwich, but Po-boy sounds better. Regardless, the Shrimp came out super crispy but very tender, and the slaw with cucumber Mayo was very good. The raw cucumber on the sandwich was a nice touch as well, and the wedge of lemon alongside with the Louisiana hot-sauce helped elevate this dish. I also added on a side of fries because I'm a glutton for punishment. The fries were hot and very crispy but surprisingly, unnecessary.I will definitely be back and I would absolutely recommend for you to try this place out, especially if you're into seafood - the outdoor seating is perfect for those looking to catch a glimpse of Huntington harbor.This place also feels perfect if you're just looking for a few 'light' cocktails and one or two little appetizers as well. It was a very pleasurable experience!

I thought it was a dunkin donuts they had over here, anyway i was told to run out and get my wife dunkin iced coffee so i asked the employee to make me an iced coffee and just water it down. Anyway i got home, slipped it in an empty dunkin cup and she bought it. Thanks guys for getting me out of that mistake. Happy wife happy life you guys are great!

Very disappointing! Went with my mom and we both got the lobster roll. Not a single piece of tail in either one. Both full with nothing but claws. For that price I feel totally ripped off! Definitely not going back.

Delicious, fresh and sizable seafood dishes! I highly recommend the lobster mac and cheese, as it is better than any I have ever had. This restaurant is clean and spacious and I always leave satisfied. Thank you for opening a Huntington location and serving the local area!

New England clam chowder is fantastic as were the lobster rolls and sweet potato fries. Will be back real soon. Friendly staff.

I loved this place, Fish Fingers with Coleslaw were delicious.I also liked the design of the restaurant.

Yummy dinner.! The hot lobster sandwich was delicious and the shrimp salad fresh and cooked perfectly. Can't wait to go back.

Great local seafood spot. If you're in the mood for no frills seafood and beer go here.

Just was there with my wife , ordered the regular lobster roll and one with extra stuffed meat they were same ,both had same meat quantity , paid $38 for the One with extra meat , very less butter and lobster meat was also not that tasty . Have had far better lobster rolls than this one
