"Luke’s Lobster will bring a taste of Maine seafood to California this fall, opening the first West Coast branch of its 29-location chain in SoMa. The new California Luke’s will arrive at 92 Second Street, hauling in lobster, shrimp, and crab rolls with it. Founded by Luke Holden and Ben Conniff, the chain has grown significantly since its first location in New York's East Village in 2009. Luke’s Lobster Seafood Company in Saco, Maine, supplies the seafood, ensuring quality by processing the lobster in Maine before shipping. The SoMa location is in a historic building, aiming to serve the busy business district with lunch, catering, and delivery services. The venue will also offer Northern California and Maine beers and adapt its menu to local tastes, potentially featuring Dungeness crab." - Caleb Pershan
