   Lobster was not the best. We had the Lobster rolls with chive butter. The bread was ok, the lobster was average, almost stringy, and tough. The price was reasonable for a great Lobster roll, but we didn’t have a great lobster roll. $10 coffee and an additional $10 for a coffee refill. Cabernet was excellent. Ambiance was ok. Service was excellent, until it got busy, then it was average- long wait for the bill…

   MAJOR improvement from our first visit right after opening less than a year ago. The menu is much more extensive and varied, both in cold and warm dishes, all around the seafood theme, and very reasonably priced. The changes in the wine list are extraordinary... it used to be poor, few selections, and not particularly well priced. Their list now is excellent - it is evident that a lot of thought on quality and value went into creating it. The list is very smartly priced - it definitely encourages guests to try less known but excellent wines at a great price (e.g., try Raventós de Nit rosé sparkling for $34 a bottle, or a Chablis 1er cru...) Excellent work by the sommeliers and all who worked on putting the list together - I dare to say it's the most interesting, appealing, and well priced wine list in town. Another great addition to the menu is that you have many offerings with half or full size portions, a great idea to encourage guest to try more of the menu items I wrote a very tough review back last year and hoped they'd improve. Well, I'm very impressed by how much they've improved. This is an excellent place all around, a great experience, and you will want to go visit every week!

   The food was terrible. I had a lobster roll with butter and chives that had zero butter. Was also very small and somehow the lobster had zero flavor. I love lobster rolls so I’m not sure how it was even possible to be so bad. It came with a very small amount of tasteless French fries. My husband got a large pasta and it tasted okay but was also a very small portion to be “large”. They took my lobster roll off of the bill which was nice but the whole experience was definitely a waste. We also had the soft shell crab appetizer and it was extremely salty. The soups were watery and needed thickening. Just not good.

   Went there on a sunday around 130pm. Excellent food. Place was not busy but service was still a little hit or miss and they seemed to be rushing as it got near closing time at 230. Still flavors and sauces were excellent. Wines by the bottle are a great value. I will certainly visit again. Maybe during dinner.

    I had an amazing experience at MF Lobster, thanks to Josh, the bartender and server at the bar. He crafted the best Lychee martinis and my absolute favorite espresso martini. Despite a busy bar, Josh provided exceptional service and was incredibly attentive, ensuring no one was left unseen. His professionalism and warm demeanor truly enhanced the experience. I will definitely be back!
