Royal Lobster LA

A truly delightful place with a wonderful atmosphere! The staff is incredibly polite and attentive, which makes the experience even more enjoyable. We especially want to highlight the lobster rolls – absolutely divine, with an unforgettable taste! We visited as a family, and everyone was thoroughly satisfied with the food. We’ll definitely come back again! Highly recommended to everyone!”

Came here based on so many great reviews and it was right on point. We both got the lobsters rolls served with chips and slaw. The brioche bun was perfectly toasted and the lobster had just the right amount of yummy butter. Portion barely fits on the bun but for a few bucks more you can hangs that and go all out. Don’t pass on the slaw as it’s the perfect cool crunchy bite to cut a little of the rich lobster. Wish it was closer to home but it was worth the drive.

Dedicated to the simple yet sublime pleasure of lobster. With a menu that’s stripped down to two simple choices—lobster roll or lobster salad— this spot has a singular focus: delivering the freshest, most flavorful lobster possible. I went for the lobster roll. The portion is generous, to say the least, as most lobster rolls leave you wishing for a bit more. The bun, however, was a bit of a letdown. It was a little on the dry side, lacking that buttery, toasted crispiness that you expect. I found myself reaching for my water to help it along, which isn’t exactly ideal. On the side you’ve got house coleslaw, chips, and garlic mayo. The slaw was tasty—creamy and tangy—but could’ve used a bit more of a peppery kick to liven it up. The chips were solid. Initially, I thought they were homemade, but nope—store-bought. Still, they were nice and crunchy, especially when dipped in that fantastic garlic mayo. Honestly, that mayo was the hero that saved the roll. Dip in, and suddenly the bun’s shortcomings were somewhat erased. The two guys running the place are super kind, attentive, and they clearly care about their customers. They were wiping down tables constantly, keeping everything spotless, which is always a good sign when you're grabbing a quick bite. It is chill enough for a lunch break, despite being on a main street. It’s not the kind of place you sit and stay—it’s more of a “satisfy your craving and go” spot, and while the bun could use a bit of improvement, the quality of the lobster and the friendly service help to make up for it.

Fab-U-Los! Everything you've heard is true. Delicious lobster on a brioche bun with butter. That's it. Coleslaw on the side was fresh and tasty. Outdoor seating was refreshing

Really really good lobster roll. We ordered the lobster roll with extra meat and it was perfect. The roll is packed with meat. It also comes with chips and cole slaw.y you can also make it a salad instead of a roll if you'd like. When you only see two options on the menu you know it's going to be good. I will definitely be back because it's not often you find really good lobster rolls.

•Royal Lobster LA •Entrée: Lobster Roll $30 •Drink: Lemonade $4 •Customer Service: One Employee who cycles to make sure your experience is well supported to anything. Very Nice... •Aesthetic "Friday 6:57PM": The restaurant setting is this Old rennervated abandoned gas station from the 70s. Multiple sitting options if you're on your own or with friends. •Lobster Roll $30-- Served with chips and House Cole Slaw. Presentation for this meal is modern and very portion sized. Royal Lobster LA Promotes 100% Fresh Maine lobster and this is true. You're able to created 3 experiences with this Lobster Roll. By itself, with the portion size Garlic Mayo (" which was an amazing sauce") and Seafood seasoning they offer in person.

As a New Englander myself (from NH), I was skeptical to find any lobster roll in LA that could compare. But this lobster roll honestly topped even some I’ve had back home. I like that there’s no mayo on the roll itself and that it’s served on the side so that you really get that full lobster and butter experience. The bun was toasted perfectly and the lobster seemed very fresh. Of course, just like anywhere else with lobster, it’s market price so it’s expensive (about $30/roll). And though one could complain the size is small for the price, I honestly think they were still generous with the lobster and it was filling on its own. Overall ambience is meh since it’s outdoors and right by a main road, but it didn’t really deter from the meal. I’d highly recommend if you’re in the area!

Everything was so delicious. The 2 gentleman that work there were so nice and greeted us very friendly since the beginning. We literally got a full lobster on a roll. Every bite was full of Lobster. It's so delicious and you get your money's worth. Best lobster Roll. Thank you for the great customer service.

Food amazing and fresh as always 10/10 came around 11:30 ish not packed perfect for a lunch stop.

First time I had this roll was in Hawaii and I was hooked! When I found out they had a location in LA I was geeked out! Chips pair perfectly with the roll and the sauce is so good, we can't forget the extra ole bay seasoning they provide with no extra charge Service was quick the gentleman that helped was so sweet. The patio area is cute and comfy, they have bathrooms on site and they're clean! Can't wait to go back I sat there and ordered 3 rolls. I will be doing the same thing again next time. Enjoy your food

Delicious, but stupid expensive. We got the signature 7oz buttered lobster with 100% fresh Maine lobster for $60.22 after tax. For this price, I would want more sides than just a chips and house cole slaw. There about 4 parking spots, both indoor and outdoor seating which made the meal quite pleasant. The presentation of the lobster was nicely done as well. It's hard to justify the price for something so casual, but at least it was really good. The garlic mayo, lemon and bay seasons did well to enhance the roll. The meat was fresh and had great texture. Gone are the days of $20 lobster rolls. Living is just so expensive now.

Got the extra large lobster roll for about $60. Came with 6-7 oz of lobster and you can also get free sides of chips and slaw. Honestly quite a good lobster roll, and price is somewhat within the expected range. Not something I would get every week, but worth it to come for a solid roll once in a while.

Instagram told me to come here so I checked it out with a friend. Very limited parking so we just street-parked in the neighborhood and walked over. This place has an interesting look as it used to be an old gas station. Seating is outside with shade. The menu is literally 2 items so this is definitely their specialty. My friend and I both got the lobster roll and it comes pretty packed with meat. Also comes with some slaw and chips. Overall taste is solid but I have issues with the pricing. It's good but I don't think it's worth $30. Good to try out once but I won't be back.

Parking is free but they have limited spots. The firm I work order it for lunch one day and now it's definitely a go to. My partner loved it. I know a few coworkers find the roll small but the flavor is there. It's not fishy. The roll is soft and fresh. It's definitely a must try if you want a good lobster roll. Service is fast, friendly, and attentive. They have a bathroom and the dinning area is cute.

Ate here while on a mother-daughter weekend. We love lobster rolls and this place has high reviews. We ordered the lobster rolls warm. I had extra lobster meat, cause I love lobster. Roll was just under $30 and extra meat was around $12. It comes with a side. It is on the pricer side and portion size isn't the biggest. Love that this place used to be a gas station. Makes for a unique dining experience. They have patio heaters which was great since it was a little chilly after the sun went down. Definitely a place to try at least once! They stayed busy with people getting orders to go or sitting outside.

Super cute shack. Lobster rolls omg so good ! Nice and fresh, with a side of cold slaw and chips 10/10. The most reasonable price lobster roll I've found in LA.

SO YUMMY. I placed an online order ~3 days beforehand to ensure I actually got rolls the day I went. For $30 you get a lobster roll, coleslaw (yum), and chips. The roll was warm and it consisted of both tail and claw lobster pieces. I ate it as recommended: 1st: alone, 2nd: with lemon drizzled and 3rd: with the aioli and/or old bay seasoning. I love all things seafood so even the plain lobster roll was finger licking good. The sweetness of the brioche bun, little saltiness/taste of the butter and flavor of the lobster all mixed together was heavenly. The lemon, aioli and old bay definitely added a special little zing to the roll. The ambiance during nighttime is mwah magnifique. The service was amazing; Justin was very attentive and switched out the heat lamp for us right away when it was starting to go out - without us even having to ask. I will be back!

I was craving lobster rolls on a random weekday afternoon. Found this place through yelp and thought I'd give it a shot. To start, I liked the vibe of the place - it was a renovated gas station turned into a sit down restaurant. The menu is minimalist with only 2 things on the menu. A salad and a lobster roll. Of course, I opted for the lobster roll. And just WOW! The lobster roll blew me away. I loved how simple the roll was. There wasn't any extra ingredients added like mayo or caviar or anything that takes away from the sweet taste of lobster. Apparently their lobster is fresh from Maine. Anyways, I'd say this place has one of the best lobster rolls I've ever had. I'm excited to come back here and enjoy the simplicity and deliciousness of this place.

As a huge fan of lobster rolls, this is one of the best I have ever had, they are super generous on the portions, the sauce that comes with it is go die for and the bread is soft on the inside and prefectly toasted on the outisde. The place is adorable, very clean and cosy, heaters outside are a big plus.

Royal Lobster LA deserves every bit of hype - hands down, the best lobster roll I've ever had! I ordered ahead to make sure I didn't miss out, and it was 100% worth it. The lobster roll was packed with large, tender chunks of lobster in every bite, perfectly rich and buttery on a soft, toasted roll that held everything together just right. I also tried the lobster salad, which featured whole claws and tails. It was incredibly fresh and full of flavor, making it a nice "low carb" option. Service was prompt, and I appreciate that they provide real silverware (instead of plastic ones) despite being outdoor seating only. Just a heads up, there are only four parking spots in the lot, but there's plenty of nearby street parking, which made it easy to get in and out. This place is a must if you're in LA, and absolutely worth the drive!! Every bite was an indulgent treat, and I can't wait to come back!

I always drive by the neon "lobster" sign on the way home from work. I've been meaning to stop by but we never found the time. Fiancé was out for a work event and this popped up in my mind for dinner. Lobster chunks were big, dipping sauce was to tasty and chips were crispy! I picky about coleslaw but it was pretty good here! Not too sweet. Will be back when I want to splurge again!

The lobster rolls are fantastic! I picked some up while we were transitioning from Mid-City to Pasadena (after losing our home in the Altadena fires) and everyone helping us was very appreciative. And everyone loved them!

This was a unique experience to have a delicious Maine lobster roll in L.A. Service is excellent and the roll was packed with fresh lobster along with a side of chips and coleslaw. I tried another lobster roll downtown and Royal Lobster is worth the trip to Koreatown for a better quality lobster and dining experience.

Was driving down Beverly and was hungry and craving seafood. Saw "lobster" on the diner-like sign and stopped by. You order outside and they have two main entrees, lobster salad or roll. I got the roll. The brioche was perfectly soft and smooth. The lobster was already topped with butter and came with a mayo (pretty good, a mix between tartare and aioli) dressing and a lemon wedge. The chips (apparently house made) were fine, nothing special. The lobster was fresh and perfectly cooked and pretty generous in serving size. The coleslaw was pretty good, too. Service was great and attentive. Lemonade sweet and refreshing. Ambiance was interesting. Side of a busy road/parking lot vibes with cute colorful decor. They make the best of the space. No complaints.

A pretty solid lobster roll, especially for LA. Served up in the traditional Maine style (cold with mayo) you also get a few chips, a lemon wedge, and coleslaw with your order. They also have plenty of old bay seasoning to add to fit your particular tastes. They're fairly generous with the lobster and I could tell it was fresh. Service was friendly and fast. But what's really unique about this place is the setting. It almost gives retro gas station vibes. There's no indoors, but that makes for solid people watching. They've got something unique that seems to be working for them.

this is it everyone. the lobster roll place you've all been looking for. listen, i been all over the country searching for the best lobster roll. while there are some damn good ones on the east coast, this joint is king. from the outside, you would never think that a renovated gas station could whip up such deliciousness. pretty much only one thing on the menu (unless you want some leaves), the lobster roll is amaze balls. the meat is fresh and sweet. perfectly seasoned and buttered. real talk though, the biggest it factor for me was the way they cut the lobster into much smaller pieces, allowing the roll to house more lobster, as well as maintain its integrity without falling apart. just writing this review is making my damn mouth water. if you got the dough and you got the time, do your mouth a favor and stop by here and grab yourself a roll.

I've been craving lobster rolls and this place is definitely comparable to places I enjoyed when I visited New England. It's not traditional but you can definitely taste the sweetness and freshness of the lobster. The roll comes buttered with a lemon wedge, coleslaw, potato chips, aioli and old bay seasoning on the side. It's about $30 bucks for a roll, pretty standard with market price and it's such a generous portion. They make it fresh which really makes a difference in quality. You can order ahead and park and wait in their lot, or order at the counter and sit outside.

Looks like a gas station, the simple open-air space Royal Lobster occupies definitely gives that chilling ambiance to accompany you enjoying their foods. As simple as their venue, so does their menu offering only 2 selections; Lobster Roll or Lobster Salad. The price varies by day, following the fluctuation of the lobster market price. The day I visited was $29.99 ex tax. As expected, the food was speedily served, thanks to the modest variations of dishes. I opted for Lobster Roll, which was perfectly paired to sides of coleslaw and potato chips. When served, they would ask you to squeeze the lemon and enjoyed the lobster with lemon as is for your first bite, before having them with the sauce and the seasoning powder. I was sold at my first bite as it's so fresh and the lobster came in chunky pieces. It's doubtlessly worth the hype and the price. MUST TRY!

Exceeded my expectations. It was really good and tasted really fresh. The establishment itself isn't much to look at but you wouldn't expect the quality of the lobster roll to be so great. We ate there and sat outside and were surprised that there weren't any bugs flying around. They serve maine style lobster rolls with coleslaw, chips, and a dallop of their sauce on the side.

Huge rip off. They charged over $100 for two average tasting lobster rolls. Nothing special and certainly NOT worth the inflated price they charge. If you want a delicious lobster roll, I highly recommend the restaurant "Lobster and Beer". They charge only $26.95 for each lobster roll and tastes way better.

I love places that just serve one speciality because that way, they can just focus on perfecting the dish, and that's exactly what this shop did (also I don't have to think too much about what to order because there are only 2 choices, the roll or the salad). Lobster tasted amazing and goes very well with the brioche bread, and my boyfriend assumes they used clarified butter. Lobster is very juicy and they give you plenty of it. The server was very attentive and kind. He suggested trying it first with the lemon, then with the mayo sauce. Place is very dog friendly, and the outdoor seating is very nice and the bathrooms are super clean! Order ahead online a couple days in advance to make sure they don't run out of lobster!

While in Los Angeles visiting family, I decided to stop by this lobster spot to experience a lobster roll and to find out why so many on Yelp & IG have been raving about it. Many Yelpers used words such as, delicious, fresh and juicy to describe the rolls. Two others compared the lobster rolls to ones they've had in Boston and said by far the ones here were much better. I ordered the lobster roll, which came with coleslaw, chips and a sauce on the side.The lobster looked and tasted fresh and the portion size was adequate. The lobster was stuffed in a warm, lightly butted brioche bun, which only enhanced its overall flavor. I've had a love for lobster, specifically, lobster rolls for sometime now and have dined at various establishments who serve them. Without question, this spot ranks amongst one the best I've ever had. Should you find yourself in L.A. and craving a lobster roll. This is definitely the spot. You will not be disappointed!

One of the best lobster rolls I've had in my long and experienced life! Very simple - just a lot of fresh lobster and a soft buttery roll. I enjoyed it naked without all the accoutrements, but a little lemon certainly didn't hurt. I had a lobster roll in Newport, RI just last month and this one blew it out of the water. Very quick and enthusiastic service too. This place could very easily be counter service only, but they go out of their way to deliver your meal and clean up after you. Go early because they run out!

Found this spot through Yelp after grabbing some coffee in the area and with the raving reviews we need we had to stop by and check it out. A few parking spots in the lot is parking on side streets. Friendly service and a spacious outdoor area. A simple menu with their famous lobster roll and a lobster salad. It is a hefty price but with the freshness and the amount of delicious lobster per plate it is sooo worth it. The roll was nicely toasted and loaded with warm buttery lobster and came with a coleslaw, chips, lemon wedge, aioli, and bay seasoning on the side. This was honestly one of the best dishes I've ever had and in my top 10 of places I've been. No doubt I'll be back for more.

I've driven past this location many times growing up in LA. It has had several businesses over the years. I was excited to read that lobster rolls were now being served at this nostalgic location, which was at one time a full service gas station many years ago. There are a few exterior tables nicely set up and there's a small parking lot. You can either order a lobster sandwich or a lobster salad. I thought it was a bit pricy for a quick lunch option. But, it's cheaper than flying to Maine and quicker than driving to find the Lobsta Truck or Cousin's, which are less expensive. For about $30, you get a lobster roll, coleslaw and potato chips, which I got "to go". Service was very friendly and I got my order quickly. Although the roll doesn't look that big, it was surprisingly satisfying. The roll was packed with perfectly cooked delicate lobster. The coleslaw was a nice addition, and the potato chips added a nice crunch factor. Butter, old bay seasoning, lemon and a mayo aioli were also provided. I was happy with the lemon and butter. All in all, very enjoyable for a quick splurge. I'll be back the next time I have a hankering for a taste of Maine.

The lobster rolls here have the perfect sized lobster chunks, with a good snappy bite. It's paired perfectly with homemade potatoes chips and the most delicious cole slaw that's a little tart and balances well with the meal. Service is so friendly here, we called in for takeout, pulled up into the parking lot, the server ran out to us immediately, and then brought our food out to our car when it was ready.

What a treat! Very lovely experience. Sitting outside at a converted gas station, being served by a friendly staff who described the 2 choices- lobster roll or lobster salad. That is the whole menu and all it needs to be. The roll was perfectly toasted and buttery. The lobster was plentiful and not made with mayonnaise (a rookie mistake for many places). There is a dollop of tasty spicy aioli on the plate that you can add if you choose. There's a wedge of lemon and a small bowl of coleslaw to accompany the potato chips. It's served on a cute wooden platter- quite an elegant meal presentation. The lobster was fresh and plentiful and the whole experience delightful. I recommend if you're craving lobster. None of us had the salad, but we saw other people enjoying it and it looked equally delicious. Thumbs up!

I enjoyed my visit to Royal Lobster very much. I did pre order because they are likely to sell out but I was still able to dine in. There is outside seating available in a nice comfortable area with a few parking spots right next to the restaurant. There's also street parking available in the area. The service was very good and quick. The menu is very simple with lobster salad or a lobster roll with chips for $29.99. The lobster roll is so fresh and delicious. I highly recommend visiting Royal Lobster.

Fresh generous lobster rolls in the middle of LA! What could be better? This place has a simple menu, lobster rolls or lobster salad and they do both perfectly. Staff is also very friendly and great for curbside pickup. Pull your car to the their gas station and staff will come hand you your order without ever needing to step out.

Pretty good lobster roll and great service. You just roll up to the window order and await. The salad is whatever we had ordered that with extra lobster and not worth it. Park, pay, sit, eat and enjoy! My mom did mention she had never cared for lobster until today!

Been to Boston and Salem Massachusetts and tried quite a bit of lobster rolls that were absolutely delicious. Let me just say that this roll was just second to none! Ordered a roll to go and loved how everything came on the side so you could assemble to your own liking. The lobster chunks were definitely a generous portion and so fresh. Poured the butter and old bay seasoning with a squeeze of lemon on top which literally took the lobster to another level. The brioche bun they use was soft and buttery yet still had a good toasted-ness to it. The cole slaw was just as tasty. Even the chips were delicious (not sure if they're house made or not). Would absolutely recommend you coming and trying their lobster roll out. Note: Some may find this place pricey, but roll's are based on market price. For the quality and amount of lobster they put in their rolls, it's so worth it.

The last time I had a lobster roll to this caliber was at Neptune Oyster in Boston back in 2011. It's that good but realize, just like at Neptune Oyster, if you expect to be filled up with just the one roll, you will be disappointed. It's all about the taste and if you want to be filled and let your mouth be delighted, either order the salad as well or another roll. I know you can order the double meat but to me, you don't get that soft buttery bun included. It's my opinion just to order the other roll. Enjoy just like I did.

I've been to Boston and several cities that claimed to have the best lobster roll, but I've got to tell you it's right here in Los Angeles. I placed my order in advance and arrived right on time to get my food. The service was extremely friendly and I love the outdoor eating area. So let's get into it. The lobster roll was served with fresh made coleslaw, some crispy chips and I got some extra garlic mayo on the side. The roll itself was on a really fresh buttery, soft brioche bun. The lobster was perfectly cut smaller than usual instead of just big chunks, which I appreciated so you could get equal bites of lobster and the soft roll in every bite. The lobster was extremely fresh and tender. Delicious! Pro Tip: Sprinkle the Old Bay seasoning on it - a little or A LOT. It takes a perfect lobster roll to the next level. Be sure to get a glass of their fresh lemonade too. Thank me later. My meal was pretty pricey, but for the quality of food and the lobster I didn't mind it was a perfect and simple meal. Who would've ever thought that cute little place serving East Coast style lobster rolls would be right in the middle of our own K-Town? Now that I know, I will definitely be back!

Food: 5/5. Quality guaranteed, fresh, juicy, on point. Simple. The price is market price so it's reasonable. Service 5/5: very friendly, accommodating. Amibiance 5/5: outdoor and indoor. Looks like IG place lol Very silver lake and beach vibe iykyk. I highly recommend!

Converted gas station turned into buttery lobster haven. Sitting outside on a beautiful sunny California day. Our server was kind and communicative. The lobster roll was buttery and soft and the lobster was buttery. We were told to try it naked, then with lemon and then with the garlic mayo. Overall a delightful experience. The price this day was right under $33. Value wise we felt like it was fair for the experience and amount of lobster!

The best lobster rolls in LA!! Their menu is simple (lobster roll and lobster salad) and they sell out within a few hours of opening on the regular. Do be sure to pre-order your food ahead of time! There's limited seating but diners don't usually stay long and the staff there do an incredible job with keeping the flow of the business going well. When presented with your meal, you are given a few options to enjoy your roll: slice of lemon, Old bay seasoning, or their garlic aioli sauce. Protip: try it all!

Royal Lobster LA is a small little eatery at an old retro gas station. The menu is simple, you can choose either a lobster roll or a lobster salad and the food is brought out to you. Seating is pretty limited but service was pretty good. Parking is pretty limited but there was plenty of street parking and I also recommend checking online to make sure they aren't sold out. I ordered a lobster roll and it came with Cole slaw and a side of chips. I didn't really care for the Cole slaw and wished for some fries but the main attraction was the lobster roll. It was cold lobster on a warm buttered bun with a lemon wedge and aioli on the side. It was recommended to try to lobster roll plain before adding some old bay seasoning and mayo to it. The lobster was fresh but I think the combination of hot and cold wasn't to my taste. I generally prefer either a hot lobster roll with butter or a cold lobster roll mixed with mayo/sauce. I would still recommend this place just to try it out if you like lobster rolls.

Food is two options 1) Lobster Salad $30 2) Lobster Roll $30 Staff is welcoming and service was quick and professional. Seating is outside only, shaded with clean restrooms to wash your hands prior to handling your food. Lobster Roll comes with a side of coke slaw and Chips. Before you bit the roll, squeeze the lemon on top and dip the roll into their steamy secret sauce. A great tasting buttery bun with satisfying Lobster fresh Hawaii taste

Delicious lobster roll.!!! Loved it. Great taste.! Yummy Maine lobster roll The lobster salad wad great as well. Fresh greens. Coleslaw was very yummy.!! Definitely recommend it.

This place is the only game in town. As other reviews have extolled the virtues of this lobster roll, it is well worth the splurge.

This may be too soon to say, but....I think I found my favorite lobster roll place in Los Angeles. It's just as good as their Honolulu location, except I don't have to cross an ocean to get it; I only have to drive to K-Town. I pre-ordered my $30 signature lobster roll online because I didn't want to get there and be sorely saddened by a sold out lobster sign. I scored a parking spot right next to the restaurant/stand and told the person at the counter that I wanted to dine out on their patio and get my Vitamin D for the afternoon. The lobster roll was just as good as I remembered it: sweet, fresh, delicious, meaty slices, lemony, buttery and artery clogging goodness on a toasted brioche bun. It came with a side of good coleslaw and chips plus some aioli sauce, but let's face it - you don't want to hear about these extras. You're here for a lobster that stands out with its own fresh and minimal ingredients, and oh, Royal Lobster LA, I do think you're my lobster.

Hi this is one of the most notable place in Hawaii, if you are a big fan of lobster roll you may know this! They came in K town! The quality is awesome as the original place but missing the lobster bisque but still super tender and fresh juicy lobster flesh ever! The staffs were very friendly and serving the great quality and the quantity as well! The patio was decent enough but lack of atmosphere maybe little more lights or some! Also I've recommended to the owner make the bun and the lobsters warmer to enhance the toothsome taste of this Royal Lobster! Please come and enjoy the most freshest taste of Royal lobster in K town.

Came out of my long review hiatus to talk about the lobster roll at this place! Good amount of very fresh lobster and reasonably priced, the lobster roll was simple yet delicious. The bread was amazing too! Went when they just opened at 11am and there was hardly anyone there.

Closed on Mondays! OH MY GAHHHHHD! This is hands down THE place to go for your lobster fix. We had the opportunity to meet the owner, Justin. He gave us the rundown of how they came about. They've got their original location out in Hawaii. So happy to have them locally to us in K-town! The lobster roll has zero fillers so you are basically getting nothing but fresh lobster in a perfectly toasted buttered bun. I sprinkled a little lemon, for one bite. Then dipped it in their house made aoili, then sprinkled some old bay on top. It really didn't need anything. It was perfect on its own. The chips and slaw on the side complimented the roll. There's outside seating and Justin was so welcoming and hospitable. They were working on an enclosed seating area at the time. I saw on their instagram that it's now complete and open for use. Perfect for this rainy weather. Parking can be tricky. They offer a few parking spaces, like 4. But you can find street parking because this is how LA works, folks! The only other thing on their menu is lobster salad. I ordered this to go and basically inhaled it when I got home. The vinaigrette put the whole salad together. I can't wait to come back! Lastly, once they sell out of lobster for the day, they close! Justin recommends checking their instagram for updates. You're welcome!

Ok, fine. I will share lol A fan of FREsH meaty LoBstAa?? Look no further. I guarantee you can not find anywhere better than here. I was already full when I spotted this place. However, not every day I m in the area, so I rather NOT miss out on something good. Esp lobster lol So I kinda stopped eating lobster rolls because every place serves the tip of the claw..that very thin reddy part. Lots of it. I hate that part lol My friend and I shared one. It came with coleslaw, chips, and a yummy sauce. Like OMGEeez...only the good part of the lobster was served. Chunks of lobster meats. I enjoyed the lobster roll from here so much. It was simple and buttery with a slight touch of lemon on it. The coleslaw & chips were yummy as well. If I can afford to come every day, you will see me here every single day hahha Service was great. Parking avail. Seating avail RR avail

Was driving and saw this gem. seen it somewhere on Instagram and was like I have to try this spot. Glad I did. Had the lobster roll, was #hellagood. Nice outside seating area as well.

My coworker and I were "influenced" by a TikTok post saying that this was the "arguably the best lobster rolls in America." We were skeptical since we both had lobster rolls in Maine and those were phenomenal. Let me say, I'm not a lobster person. Growing up Asian in Southern California means that my personal favorite crustacean is the dungeness crab. Any other crustacean will always be compared to dungeness. I know this, but I can still appreciate other crustaceans. Enter Royal Lobster. I had to see for myself if it was worth the influence and price tag. It was a rather simple meal. Lobster on a toasted roll with a side of butter, a side of spicy aioli and a "cute" dime bag of seasoning. Seriously, seeing a dime baggy of seasoning really cracked me up! It came with a side of chips and coleslaw. On to the actual sandwich - DELICIOUS! Probably the best lobster I have had on the west coast. The lobster was perfectly cooked. I really dislike when lobster is stringy, and this was not. It is what lobster should be. The roll was a roll. My coworker and I agreed that it would be better on Texas toast instead. For sure the lobster was the star and everything else was there to complement it, but I would have preferred that the roll had more presence. I liked the coleslaw, too. Not too sweet or creamy and definitely had the zing I wanted to cut the richness of the roll. The chips gave it a needed crunch to lunch on the whole, but they weren't anything special. Afterwards, I told my sister and my boyfriend how good it was AND I was still thinking about it while eating dinner. THAT was how good it was. I will definitely go back!
