    I had the Poseidon roll and it was full of lobster, crab and shrimp on a fresh toasted bun. Absolutely delicious. My wife had the crab legs. I thought they were a little over cooked but still good. I had 4 oysters and they were cold, fresh and briny. Absolutely wonderful.

    Heading from Texas, we love this place. The food was amazed, the Lobster 🦞 was super fresh and tasty. The waiter/waitress worked with all their heart. They were nice and fast. The price a bit expensive but totally worthy. The 10% service charge will be auto added to your ticket. But yes! We are willing to tips extra for the great food and service! Would love to back if have a chance in future.

    Delicious! Really phenomenal lobster roll at a relatively reasonable price (~$25/roll). Food came out quick and the staff were very friendly. Plenty of indoor and shaded outdoor seating. The roll had a lot of lobster on it and tasted extremely fresh/not-fishy. They have a few different rolls but I would recommend the classic as I think the lobster gets overshadowed otherwise. Clam chowder was also yummy. You order at the counter and then they bring the food out to you. Also they do charge a 10% service charge, so our overall bill was about $75 for 2 rolls+chips. Would definitely come back here again.

    One of the best places for oysters and lobster in the Miami area. Don't expect low prices but expect to be very satisfied with lobster roll choices. They have a raw bar menu. Open late...which makes it a great spot for a drink and a snack or a dinner. Servers were friendly and nice when I was there. The establishment is tucked down at south pointe where a less party vibe exists.

    Had an urge for Lobster bisque and The Lobster Shack delivered. 🦞 Their Lobster Cocktail offers a decent portion (which justifies the price), and if you're a lobster lover, you can't go wrong with their Live Maine Lobster. I went with "The Lazy Lobster" where for $3 more, they crack, open, remove shell and serve ready-to-eat. Keep in mind, although you can dine in, everyone has to place their order at the register, collect a number and your order will be delivered to your table once ready.

    Lobster rolls, lobster tacos, lobster bisque, and much more. And right near Ocean drive in Miami... to die for! You must come here! Great drinks and friendly staff too!

    The lobster rolls were amazing, best we had in Miami...and yet the King Crab roll was even better! Great little place, with friendly staff and a cute atmosphere. The food was fast, fresh and delicious! Other lobster and crab rolls we had elsewhere were watery and less flavourful. The Cajun lobster roll was delicious (my husband's fave). We preferred the lobster bisque to the clam.chowder, both were tasty (but less WOW than the rolls). Shrimp taco was also delicious. Rolls were so good, we went back twice in 4 days!

    A must-stop every time we are in Miami Beach. Prices are a bit steep, but the taste and quality of the food is well worth it. The Poseidon Roll (served hot) is definitely my favourite. The lobster roll (cold) is a close second. If you like crab, shrimp or lobster on a bun, this place is for you.

    The rolls are good. The place is nice. They have a good variety, and lots of drinks. Tourists watch out because the receipt includes "service charge" but the stub has another tip line... It should obviously say additional tip, but just says tip. I don't like stuff like that, especially when the roll already comes out to 30 bucks.

    Excellent warmed lobster roll. Loved the Poseidon roll as well. Lobster bisque soup - very nice. Not a big fan of the lobster tacos - they were kinda bland in taste. Reasonable prices. Please customer service. Nice area.

    A great place for a lobster roll. They tasted fresh and delicious. The clam chowder was also really good. Unfortunately they sell 1 taco per order. Who eats just 1 taco?! They also don't use double tortillas, so the taco is falling apart very quickly. The food is pretty good, but they gotta fix the taco situation!

  • 5/5 Jeremy T. 11 months ago on Google
    Amazing! Food was phenomenal. Prices were fair. Service was great. The environment was relaxing and clean. I can't say enough good things about this place. The fish tacos and blackened shrimp tacos were huge and delicious. There was so much fresh flavor. Even came with an avocado slice. Lobster bisque soup was also wonderful. It was piping hot, and packed with flavor. Cheese quesadilla was packed full of tasty cheese. There is so much outdoor seating. Everything is nice and clean. Every table was well stocked with nice napkins, and individuallly packed silverware. I will definitely eat here again whenever I'm back in Miami.

    If you don't look at the bill , the lobster appetizer. We had 2. And 3 clam chowder soups. Was fresh and really tasty. They do have a great beer selection. And your south of 5th on 1st street. It's worth it. 🏄‍♀️ 🌊 🙏

    If you can ignore the price (our average $40pp), then come try this place out. We had the lobster roll and oyster and they were both great and fresh. We were greeted by staffs and they always had a staff making sure our garbage and emptied plates are being taken care off. Overall great place to eat at.

    The crab legs, lobster roll, and fish in a bag were amazing! Sides are plentiful and delicious! The waiters and managers are very pleasant and ensure their guests get what they came for! Awesome experience!

    The lobster rolls were good but for 24.99 only small amount of meat, the whole lobster is cheaper. The lobster bisque which was extra only tasted like tomato sauce and was hard to finish. The ladies there were nice.

    Best lobster rolls we have ever tried. The tacos were great too. A wide range of beers from taps to can, bottle. Just wish the exterior could be more vibrant 😊 paired well with music

  • 5/5 Anna L. 5 months ago on Google
    All the way from Germany we came across this place. Top tuna / blackened shrimps / lobster tacos! All 3 are amazing, the blackened shrimps were for me the best, while my friend preferred the tuna taco. Take all 3 and see which one you like most. Oysters looked great as well!

    Randomly came across this place while walking down Miami beach and decide to stop by for a quick bite. Food was pretty good (ordered Lobster Roll + Oysters Rockefeller), as I would had expected nothing less for a sea food place in Miami Beach. However, what made me decide to write a review was the drink. I order the "soon to be famous margarita", and let's be honest here, this margarita should be famous already :). For sure will be stopping by again in the future when I go back to Miami and HOPEFULLY the margarita's new name is "the famous margarita".

    Lobster roll was only okay, had much better at this price point. The bisque was good. Not sure why a mandatory service charge is added for a take out order.

  • 1/5 Steph 6 months ago on Google
    This places is awful. The food is OVER PRICED. Do not order take out if you are hungry. You’ll be hungry after spending tons of money. The portions are minimal and the food does not taste good. The $28 lobster roll comes on a hot dog bun with 2 bites of lobster. I feel completely disappointed after ordering from this restaurant. Save your time and money and go to a better restaurant.
