My wife and I were looking for a place to have dinner before a show. This place is convenient if you're seeing a show in Chicagos theater district.
The place was not that busy on a Saturday night at 6:30p. It's small but don't let that fool you. The food was amazing.
We both ordered the lobster combo with soup and a drink. We upgraded the drink to a beer. The total came to about 64 dollars for the two of us. I had a bit of sticker shock.
Once I tried the food though it was all worth it. The lobster was so good and well seasoned. The bread was fantastically toasted and buttered. The soup was also amazing. We got the clam chowder. Honestly the portions we're enough to fill us up but the food was so good I could eat it till I get sick off it or go broke. OR BOTH! ????
Usually people seek out a fancy restaurant for dinner before a Broadway show. We decided to try this and GLAD WE DID!
Came to try their lobster roll. Ended up trying the trio. The lobster and the crab rolls are very good, and would definitely order again. The shrimp roll is also good, but when compared to the lobster and crab, I would rather get those instead. The clam chowder was also delicious. Would definitely come back again

Firstly, these are not cheap rolls, but having said that, this is some of the best lobster rolls ive ever had. I recommend the flight if you want to try several specialty rolls. The classic lemon butter (cold) was excellent, as expected. The spicy mala had that curry heat and smokiness which was very good. But my favorite was the truffle lobster roll (butter is infused with truffle oil). Ill definitely get a full roll of the truffle lobster roll next time, but the 3 mini-rolls are full of lobster, they did not skimp on the 2oz portion for each mini. It was actually quite filling (and comes with chips).

Healthy portions of lobster in the roll & Mac & cheese. Roll was buttered to perfection. Food was delivered via door dash & was still the perfect temp by the time I got it.

This small spot is a gem! Consistent quality, absolutely delicious. We actually upgraded to 6oz rolls this time and it was PLENTIFUL. It's not a budget stop but if you want an outstanding lobster, crab or shrimp roll these are the best in the city. The lobster bisque is also delicious...rich & creamy. The lobster mac n cheese is full-on with lobster flavor..I prefer the bisque but it's a matter of personal preference. You can't go wrong here!

My ratings start with a 3-star so this rating means that this place is above average to me and I am likely to return. Staff was great, and ticket time was not long. Pricing is probably scary but hey it’s lobster! Food quality is great.

Tried Luke's lobster for the first time, it was recommended to me by a friend of mine. I had the simpler and food was delicious. But for the price you did not get your moneys worth.
There are more places with the same quality food and a much lower cost. But it's always good to give a place a try.
I got there for dinner but it's was pretty dead. Must have been a quiet night.

I'm in love!
I have been wanting to eat a lobster roll for a while now. I fould this place online, and wow, it is as good as everyone says. Tiny little place with lots of flavors for sure. We couldn't stop talking about it to our friends. I ordered a lobster roll with lobster bisque, my husband had a crab roll and coleslaw. We were not talking to each other for good few minutes because we were too busy eating and enjoying our rolls. We will definitely return. Highly recommended!!

This place is very small inside 6 tables and 10 bar chairs.
If you’re coming here be prepared to spend at least $35 a person. I got the lobster roll jumbo which I’m not sure was much of a difference from the regular.. they just added more meat.
The clam chowder had way too many potatoes in it and not enough clams.
The food was good but cold which I wasn’t expecting. The bun was toasted nicely but what ever seasoning was put on the lobster did not make a difference. This all come off over priced to me. I think I’ll pass next time. Over hyped.

Lobster roll here was very good. We ordered the lobster trap with the 1/2 lobster tail and soup and should have just ordered two lobster rolls. The soup was super salty and the 1/2 lobster tail was stiff and flavorless.
We also ordered the salad which was good given the soup was so salty.
