Mason's Famous Lobster Rolls

Mason's Famous Lobster Rolls at the Bayside Marketplace in Miami is just ok. I got the Connecticut lobster roll and the lobster bisque. Both were pretty bland. I like that they had seating with a view of the bay. Other than that, I wouldn't recommend this place for a lobster roll.

A good place to have a good bite of lobster roll. Atmosphere is nice and windy, may be hot if it gets sunny. Connecticut roll serve warm with butter is pretty good and filling. A good place to spend time with soft music from nextdoor and right facing Hard Rock and the wharf. Overall, a pleasant place with good lobster rolls to experience. Service is acceptable and atmosphere is nice.

It was really good and fresh. And those commenting that the lobster roll is small have obviously never had a lobster roll before, this is the normal size of them, plus there was no shortage of lobster meat on it as you can see. Will definitely be back!

I’m actually super surprised to see all these good reviews. We got the Connecticut roll and it sucked!!! It was so dry, felt like they just toasted a bun and put in some lobster, no sauce, no creaminess, no flavor! Had to drink water to swallow it. And on top of it the price is kinda ridiculous. Wouldn’t recommend.

First time trying a lobster roll. Mine had lobster salad cold in a warm buttered roll. Very mouth watering and very filling. The classic roll was also delicious. We had a Wonderful experience!

What can I say? I used to frequent Mason’s for that delicious Lobster Roll in Annapolis, Md so when I saw Mason’s in Miami at Bayside Marketplace, it was a no brainer! The location is awesome… music playing, lots of people! It was nice and Hands down, Masons has the best lobster roll. They don’t skimp on the lobster. I get it warmed with butter and I add mayo to that delicious roll! Num Num Num!!! ❤️❤️❤️

I ordered my lobster roll warm and buttery the Connecticut way. It was delicious and plenty of lobster. I thought it tasted great and the price was good. Great customer service.

Amazing light and tasty sandwich. Yes it’s not a big portion, but when you taste quality things you don’t need to eat kilo to appreciate the taste of simple ingredients cooked well. Perfect break sandwich to enjoy the view!

I got a Connecticut style lobster roll and ate it on the patio. It was ok but I have definitely had better. It did come out quickly and they brought it right to me at the table with napkins. The staff was not welcoming or friendly when I went inside to order. Very cold experience. I would not return.

This restaurant is located at Bayside. We were able to walk right in. No one was waiting on a Thursday evening. There is seating right outside of the restaurant with water views. My daughter and I both got the classic lobster roll, $25 each. Does not come with a side or a drink. It's average size, but the roll was butter toasted and packed with real lobster. There was so much lobster that it kept falling out. That was a good thing, I at least felt I got my monies worth. We had the option of having it cold or heated. In my mind, I'm thinking who eats cold lobster, but I guess it depends where you're from. We opted for warm. It was warm all the way through except for the last 2 bites, which were ice cold, and that threw me off. If I were to go back, I would try other versions of the lobster roll.

Honestly the roll was delicious could have been warmer temperature wise but nonetheless good taste, the service was fast and efficient. You order, take a number, sit outside and your order is taken to you. The area is very busy, with outdoor seating great for just sitting and taking in the water view and bustling dock area. I really have a problem with how expensive it is for a lobster roll that just comes with two slice of pickles and lemon wedges. Anyways if you feel like splurging on a lobster roll get the Connecticut lobster roll it's warm and delicious.

Out of all the food vendors, this has to be one of my favorite stops. The lobster roll was so good. Can't wait to come back and get some more.

I'm not really sure what I expected from this establishment, but I wasn't really too impressed with the service and ambiance. Don't get me wrong, I definitely enjoyed the Connecticut Roll. I just don't know if the entire experience was worth $53 for two lobster rolls (no sides included). I'm glad I was finally able to try it out though! And they were not stingy with the lobster meat

Stopped in for a quick bite to eat for lunch after finding it last minute on TikTok! This location was inside of the Bayside Marketplace an outdoor shopping center! It was located on the water with a view of the marina activities! We spent $75+ for two people! WHAT WE ORDERED: 2 "Connecticut Style" warm, buttered lobster rolls with pickles 2 bags of chips 1 gatorades 1 michelob ultra

I got a Connecticut lobster roll. The bread was toasted and buttered very well. There was a fair amount of lobster in it. This is an average of a lobster roll as you can get, but it's still a very good sandwich. It was about $25 per sandwich. I would check it out if you're interested and lobster roll. Food: 8.0 Staff/service: n/a Overall: 8.0/10

Ran across this place while walking the Bay Side Market front. We wanted something to split so we got a lobster roll. Yes, I know we're in Florida. At $25.00 it was just ok. For what you got and where you were I'd get it again over the other processed foods around it. The lady at the counter where you order was pleasant. We placed an order for one classic roll and two beers. We waited at a table outside overlooking the water which was nice. It was brought out fairly quickly. Oh, the Yelp app said they offered a free Whoopie pie your first visit. but that's not the case. They looked at me like I was crazy, ha! No worries.

DELISH, DELISH, DELISH. So fresh and tasty. I should have ordered more. We were celebrating my sister's birthday and this is her favovrite spot for lobster rolls. I can't wait to return.

This is a small walk up and order, with outside seating, located by OD "the Other Daquiri Bar" at the Bayside Marketplace at Pier 5 in Miami. I ordered a classic, no mayonnaise, and was told it would be delivered to my outside table. I ordered a mango frozen daquiri next door and sat at one of the high tops overlooking the yachts and excursion boats. The lobster roll: $25 definitely with it! Same size in Maine (okay, fresh out of the sea) would be $30 I had to go back to tell them how great it was, especially since my oldest grandson's name is Mason. The merchant appreciated the feedback, beaming with pride. The split top roll was buttered and toasted and warm, soft and fresh - I added only fresh lemon and dove in. Perfectly paired with the mango daquiri Frozen mango daquiri $9 for 12 oz. Just the right size to wash down lunch while watching a giant cigarette bust filled with sun baked tourists cruise out of sight. I felt sated, cooled off, and found Skoops for another day of gelato! Good thing I've walked a lot this week in Miami while my poor friend is in the hospital recovering from surgery! I'm glad I drove her. It's good to be a Samaritan . Feeling a bit guilty, I walked towards my exit to the parking garage and returned as promised to the lovely ladies in Sugar, this amazing candy store with carousels of colorful bins of sugary goodness. Good thing I prefer salty snacks! But I filled a bag of black licorice items for my hubby, also in a hospital near home, and my friend who loves anything chocolate. Hers, the sales lady helped to fill and overstuffed it with everything off the chocolate carousel. They were so kind and fun, encouraging their patrons to dance to the Latin beat that was playing. It's candy, why not make it even more fun!?! I chose a container like a Chinese food carton printed with words to the effect of "absolutely no nutritional value!" My ailing friend was so excited, and even stole some of my husband's licorice! What a fun day! BTW, They are building a two story store on the opposite end and it's coming along nicely.

Good not great. Mostly bread. It was kind of dry, not enough butter. Paid about $27-$28 for one after tax. The woman who took our order was fairly rude. Very average lobster roll, did the job since we were hungry but probably wouldn't waste my money here again.

I drove all the way down there from Fort Lauderdale. I got half crab half lobster the road was big. It was fresh and it was good. The view was great. The service was awesome. I'll be going back soon.

Small shop with limited items which means they're getting straight to the point. The lobster was juicy and very tasty. I squeezed lemon on it before trying it but it seems as tho the lobster may have been cooked with lemon already. The bread was warm soft on the inside and a nice crunch on the exterior. Definitely will be back, hopefully then the receipt machine is working.

Urgh!!!!!! I wanted this to be soooo much better than it actually was. I've had a lobster roll in Boston and it was Heaven on Earth. So I thought to myself "seafood in Miami?? Why not?!?" But mannnnn, $25 for what is probably the size of a filet o fish from McDonalds. Smh.... The staff is super sweet and friendly, location- right on the water with the breeze blowing beautifully. But the quality?!? The price?!?! Good grief- no. The lobster was juicy but the size for what you get- was a HUGE disappointment. I mean seriously. I have to be honest- I wouldn't go back, not even if someone else was paying. It's just not worth the money in my opinion. Grade: C-

Located in Bayside, only outdoor seating so be very careful with the birds lol. I had the Connecticut lobster sandwich and it was delicious! Definitely try it out!

I just wanted a classic lobster roll combo and the lady said they didn't have combos? Despite it being on the menu right behind her?? And it wouldn't have been a big deal except she was not nice about it for literally no reason. I think you guys need to get her some air conditioning so she's not so irrational and cranky, bc that was ridiculous.

The lobster roll itself was delish. I think instead of Mayo, butter would be better, but they offer a lot of different roll types to choose from. The lobster is great. It tastes fresh and has giant chunks. This place is right by the water at bayside market place so it's difficult to find seating during peak hours. It's also so loud from other vendors. The tables are all dirty and stick from spillage too. The cost was average for what you get since lobster is normally pricy. If you're craving seafood though, it's a good spot. We paid in cash although the sign said they don't accept cash.

Highly recommend their lobster salad. The lobster meat is so fresh and perfectly cooked, they give you a generous portion of the lobster meat in your salad. Along with the lobster, there is also cucumbers, tomatoes, lettuce and dressing of your choice. It is a perfect pick-me-up and feel-good light, healthy, protein-packed and satisfying lunch option if you are nearby.

I travel for work OTR .When I first try this lobster roll was at americas mall MN, there I just spend around 15 $ for the roll and it was ok. Today I was looking for a meal to go, something fast, and found this lobster roll at bayside marketplace in Miami fl. I ordered 2 lobster roll and they charged me 50 $ + tax. I ask the server why it was so expensive and she replay that every roll cost 25$ because the lobster came from Main. I know about lobster and what they put in the roll is not lobster tail, is lobster claw. This and over priced product, without standard nation wide price. Today as a consumer I felt deeply disrespected and disappointed. I will never stepped in to Mason's famous lobster roll.

Already love this place. The name says it all. The food is even better since my friend Sergay recommended it. I believe the lobster rolls are among some of the best we have eaten! The service is great and it's in a great location.

Ordered two lobster rolls + Tarts and a portion of lobster bisque. The baby and father stayed in the car while I went inside. Upon arrival, I waited briefly as the cashier completed her task. I told her I was there for a pickup under the name "Fathers Name." She asked for the ID from the Orderer (which obviously is not with me) stating she couldn't hand me the order without it. I matched her energy quick. Since I didn't have the ID, she refused to give me the food. Feeling confused, I suggested getting the ID sent to my phone, which she agreed to after some back-and-forth. I showed her the ID, which she approved. Fast forward to when I needed to sign the check. Tipped $0 due to poor service. After reviewing the check, the lady seemed entitled to a tip and shook her head. I left the store upset. The story didn't end there. Approaching the car, I noticed he was on the phone with the cashier of the store I just left. She called to inform him that I was "rude" but left out the cause. Unbelievable--the Audacity! it's company policy to ask for ID, but it seems ok to call the cell number on the mobile Order to complain to the owner about me.Conneticut Lobster roll were not good- no seasoning or flavor. Lobster Bisque was good But Tarts we paid for Quart and got a cup Of Bisque. Won't be coming back.

We ate here on a Girls Trip to Miami... we were waiting for our goboat tour and decided we had bout 30 mins to burn soooo margaritas/lobster rolls seemed quick enuf for the 10 of us! The Lobster Roll was Soooooo good, love mine cold w/butter and lemon juice. The lobster was chunked, not shredded to death, have several variations of rolls to choose from. THAT BREAD, toasty but soooo buttery and melt in your mouth literally... One less star... pricey and definitely NOT shareable for $25 per roll... ijs.

My cousin came into town and I decided to take her to Bayside to enjoy good music food drinks and a nice outdoor experience and view. We stumbled upon this lobster roll shop and decided to give it a try. Ashley never had a lobster roll before so this was gonna be my first time in my cousin assured me that this was going to be great. I ordered the classic roll to keep it simple and to actually get the feel of it and it was great guys oh my God hands-down delicious definitely worth the money and most definitely coming back here when I come into town.

The bal harbor roll here is huge! Bigger than most other lobster rolls you can find at these small kinds of places (lobster food truck etc.) I got the roll cold with the creamy lemon dressing and it was delicious. I've gotten it the Connecticut way (hot and toasted) as well and it was great. $21 for the bal harbor or a regular one for $16 (normal size) There's some outside seating here. The classic outside bayside tables by the water looking at the tour boats. They are located by the Hard Rock. Very hard to find online which is a shame

A little pricey but worth it. You can taste the freshness of the lobster. Love it warm with the crunchiness of the bread.

Similar to other lobster roll spots, you don't get a lot for how much you are paying (which is kind of expected going in). Overall, I could have used a little extra butter on the lobster but other than that, the roll was great. The bread was perfectly toasted! This spot is located right along the water so you can people watch and see all the boats go by as you eat. Don't need a reservation since you just walk up and order at a counter and for parking you will have to park at the bayside parking garage!

Being from New England I take my lobster rolls serious. This place did not disappoint. The roll lacked in size but the flavor was really good.

Bit on the pricy side (it is lobster after all!) But it was pretty delicious. I had the lobster mac n cheese and it was pretty filling. The lobster rolls were delicious as well, if you are in the area this is definitely a must try.

The two woman working tonight on August 19 2023 7:40 pm (check cameras) have the worst attitude ever! They rolled their eyes when we just asked if we can order a side salad. Two older ladies need a reality check and shouldn't even work if they feel the need to be rude! Also salad was nasty! Don't eat here if they are here.

This spot is amazing! We had the water view right outside and the ambience was nice. Right when you enter the staff welcome you and ask what you would like to order. They recommend their lobster rolls and we decided to go with that. I got their Bar Harbor Lobster Roll and the Classic Lobster Roll. The Bar Harbor had a lot of lobster which was great and very filling. The classic was delicious itself! I also decided to go with their lobster Mac n cheese and that was PHENOMENAL, I recommend that 100x. We also got their soup bisque and that was very tasty. Overall, we had such a great time with the nice breeze outside. We enjoyed our meals and we will be back soon. Thank you guys!!!

Francesca is amazing, great customer service and phenomenal place, phenomenal food, phenomenal soup phenomenal view, one of the best experiences of my life highly recommended

Great food and really friendly staff. I have never had a lobster roll this big! I had the Bar Harbor roll, which is their traditional lobster roll with a whole lobster tail on top. The prices are incredibly reasonable for the amount of food you get. The clam chowder was also very good. Highly recommend you stop by of you are in the area (located upstairs between Hard Rock Cafe and the other daiquiri bar in Bayside Marketplace) or order for delivery you will not be disappointed

Fabulous lobster roll not slimed with mayo. Lobster was fresh and buttered. Yum!! Too bad they are in Miami and I'm in Dallas. Would go again tomorrow.

Lobster Bisque had absolutely no lobster! I'm from New England. Huge disappointment. They charge bowl prices but give you a cup.

Best lobster spot in miami. If you're ever in Miami by bayside marina check this place out. You won't be disappointed

I will dream about this lobster roll! The bun was super buttery and soft. It was amazing. The lobster was deliciously, very tender. Usually some lobsters rolls will have tough meat but not a single piece was tough. Staff was very friendly. She offered to warm up the meat since they usually serve it cold. WARM Is 100% better! Loved this place.

Lobster roll was good, but very expensive for little food. $16 for a roll yielded only a few bites.

Ordered two lobster rolls, a bowl of clam chowder and the lobster Mac. Was shocked when I took a sip of the soup and got a strong vinegary taste. I then tried the Mac and cheese and had the same sour taste. I suspected the dairy they used had gone bad. The only edible food was the lobster roll. However, 30 minutes later I endured the most severe stomach ache. Do not order from this place. If they can't implement basic food safety standards or even taste their own food, they certainly won't be able sell enough to use up their dairy before it expires on them. Terrible experience. Avoid!

Nothing to write home about. Not sure what it's "famous" for. I've had better lobster rolls in Illinois!

Tried the famous lobster roll and the price was worth it. I think they used the claw meats which are the yummiest part of a lobster. Will definitely come back here next time my wife and I have a layover of a few hours at Miami.

The food was salty but good, not a lot of mayonnaise & I got the classic lobster roll.

Delicious lobster roll - we got the classic warmed with lots of butter (didn't taste mayo, but it may have been there). I squeezed on some lemon for even more bright taste. Big chunks of claw meat, fresh bread, a great view - can't ask fo rmore! I got hooked on lobster rolls in Boston, and this one held its own!

This place is one of my favorite places in Miami, I come here atleast once per week. Also have to get the lobster bisque, it's a must. I love the Connecticut and classic rolls the most. With the harbor right in front of you, and ODB next door playing good music, it makes for an awesome ambiance. Would highly recommend. Also Francesca at the counter will be more than helpful

This is a little slice of heaven in the miami water. It is warm and the lobster is amazingly sweet.

From out of town craving a lobster roll?! Stop in here. Perfect, flavorful roll. Ordered the Connecticut roll because I wanted it warm. Served with plenty of lobster and a lemon wedge. Haven't had a great one in a while and this did the job!! Want another just typing bout it.

Loved the sandwich. Delicious tender lobster meat with Mayo and butter, on a garlic role. Deliciousness that melts in your mouth. Wish the sandwich was bigger though, finished it in three bites. Call me hungry or big mouth... lol recommend it

Popped in here while walking through the mall and first thing I asked was "How big are the rolls." Rolls we're only 6" and cost between $18-$26 dollars. I opted for the lobster bisque. Orders s bowl to go. When I got back to my hotel room, i opened the soup only to find that it was completely watery. No chunks of lobster. Nothing. Literally was a lobster less bisque.

Clam chowder was just steamed milk with a sour taste and the lobster roll had about 2oz of meat in it. Not worth the money.

Literally the worst soup and meal of my life. My dog wouldn't eat it. I walk in small place and lade standing at door like she just left the beach, no assume manager aka body gaurd, I don't know. But I order soup. Person can't understand a word I say so manager aka body gaurd comes over. I ask is there any lobster meat in the soup. She acts disgusted in me I would ask such a thing. Says "it's a bisque". Look lady I walked far for this soup and like it from first having it at places like Morton's. And it's has actual lobster in it. You are running a lobster themed place. I say fine and pay extra to have lobster added. The guy tried to hand me my 2 teaspoon size soup with crackers taped on. I'm like I have a dog can I atleast get a bag for my $15 2 teaspoons of soup. He was very nice and gave me bag. Get home, literally so gross. Two pieces of lobster I paid $4 extra for and the soup was like powder and so nasty! My dog wouldn't eat it. This pic is what I paid $15 for. Yuck!
