"You won't have to wait in line any longer at this palace of seafood—thanks to a remodel there’s even more seating inside and out. Set in an industrial warehouse, the space features a nautical theme—painted buoys hang on the walls and seawater tanks are filled with crustaceans. Expect nothing less than a fresh meal in this buzzing eatery, which is both a fish market—selling oysters on the half shelf—and restaurant.Kick things off with the creamy lobster-corn chowder. (For dedicated fans, frozen to-go quarts are offered.) Then go for broke with the lobster roll served three ways: dressed with mayo; naked (with drawn butter); and seasonal (avocado and bacon). But, it's the lobster plate that steals it away, starting at one and going up to four pounds." - Michelin Inspector
"Grabbing a picnic table under a giant patio parasol at this Burlingame favorite feels as freeing as being a weekender in an East Coast beach town. Pair a glass of Harken with the three amigos taco sampler plate or, for the full eastern seaboard vibe, a dressed lobster roll — nearly as transportive as a plane ticket." - Vox Creative
"New England Lobster Market & Eatery brings the East Coast seafood dining experience to the Bay Area. Though the shop opened as a wholesale shellfish distributor in 1987, it’s since expanded to a restaurant location in Burlingame, which serves an extensive menu of seafood platters, salads, and other fare. All the fish served at the restaurant was caught no more than two days prior. Even with the impressive array of seafood offerings, lobster reigns supreme — the lobster roll, lobster corn chowder soup, and lobster tail platters are the most frequently ordered dishes." - Octavio Peña
"The smooth, buttery taste of Harken Chardonnay is a perfect wine to sip while dining on seafood, and this market and restaurant is a go-to in Burlingame for all things lobster. As you might guess from the name, the lobster roll is a favorite here, but don’t speed past the eatery’s weekday specials, either, like its “3 Amigos” tacos made with lobster, crab, and shrimp." - Vox Creative
"Restaurants including Burlingame's New England Lobster Co. and SoMa's Luke Lobster won't take David Foster Wallace's fascination off the menu, saying the issues surrounding the lobster's endangerment are being addressed." - Paolo Bicchieri
