Lobster West Coronado

We ordered lobster rolls and crab cakes to celebrate our 20th wedding anniversary and we loved every minute of it. The meat was plentiful and moist. The crab cake was not dry. We can’t wait to go back.

Great stop for a lobster roll. They also offer crab and shrimp rolls. The rolls are done Maine Style. Some folks say the price of the rolls is expensive; however, considering the price of fresh lobster, I think the prices are competitive. I had the tasty New England Clam Chowder and the side salad. The salad was huge, fresh and the dressing was very good. A good bargain for $5 dollars. Be patient, especially on weekends; between the sit-down customers and the "to go" orders; it gets very busy.

Super friendly service, and delectable rolls. The bread has just the right amount of crunch on the outside and is super squishy on the inside. The seafood was fresh and flavourful. Highly recommend!

I think it's a bit pricey for lobster rolls for how much you're getting and it's not that much better than other places I tried. I also tried their soup flights and I will say the New England clam chowder and Maryland crab soup was decent BUT the lobster bisque was really bad. Both my friend and I had a cup of it and ended up throwing the entire thing but it didn't taste good and it had a really bad aftertaste to it. Honestly, if you're in San Diego, you can find better places to grab a roll and a cup of chowder for cheaper.

We had a great meal at Lobster West in Coronado. The signature lobster rolls were fresh, buttery, and full of flavor. My husband usually doesn’t like lobster rolls because the bread is too thick or dry — but this one was soft, moist, and perfectly toasted. Great for dunking in their amazing clam chowder! We also tried the baked beans, which were delicious too. Friendly service and a relaxed vibe made it even better. Definitely worth the stop if you’re in the area!

Food was awesome, we ate here twice on the 4th! Grateful for the gluten free bun option, it's why we tried it. Expensive but that's expected on Coronado.

Great spot for lobster rolls! Split top buttered grilled bun, cold lump lobster topped with hot melted butter. They have shrimp and crab rolls, too. "Boss" it up for more meat, or go Double. They have coleslaw and potato salad. Clam chowder is great! Lobster bisque is rich and flavorful (a scoop would do - the cup was too much). Service was great - the gentleman working was very friendly and polite. They serve Coke products (yay!) And had beer and wine options. There's a little patio for outdoor seating. Short walk from The Del. It's $40 - $50 per person, which for what you get is great, especially as compared to other places in the area. Have been the Lobster West twice and look forward to my next visit when in Coronado!

Total hole-in-the-wall vibe, but insane lobster rolls. Pricey for a takeout spot, but 100% worth it. I always get mine no mayo, just extra butter—perfection
