"Lobster roll party? The North Austin seafood restaurant has a private dining room with subtle nautical decor and a capacity for 26 seated guests." - Erin Russell, Nadia Chaudhury
"The Parmer Point seafood restaurant has three stellar soups available: clam chowder, lobster bisque, and roasted tomato. There’s a second location on North Lamar between downtown and Clarksville and a third out in Dripping Springs. Takeout orders can be placed online; there are indoor and outdoor dine-in services." - Nadia Chaudhury
"Garbo’s might be most famous for lobster rolls, but they’re not the main reason to come here. It’s for everything else seafood— East Coast oysters, massive fried shrimp, and smoked fish dip with grilled bread. That said, the lobster rolls are good, but portions can be a little too inconsistent for a $30+ sandwich. Grab some fried shrimp or a blackened fish sandwich, then find a table on the cute, shaded patio that feels very Texas-meets-New England. " - nicolai mccrary
"A seafood truck serving satisfying, portable fare like miniature Connecticut-style lobster rolls with buttery buns and a well-balanced lobster-to-bun ratio that make for a warming snack while exploring downtown events." - Nadia Chaudhury
