“ Got the seafood trio. Although each roll was small, they all provided a different flavor profile I enjoyed. Of course, the lobster roll being the best. Probably will go back with eyes on the 8oz lobster roll only. Place was clean and the staff was inviting. ”
“ This is a very chill spot in the heart of Philly. It’s a whole vibe in this place. It’s BYOB, so bring a nice Chardonnay to go with these delicious seafood rolls. The Lobster rolls are amazing but the Warm Lobster Rolls are a smash hit! It’s very rich, one is good but can’t blame you if you buy two. The Snow Crab Roll is just blow your mind amazing!!! Matt and his crew are very attentive and do their best to make sure you feel comfortable. You can’t go wrong here. The music is a great touch & allows you to have a great conversation without feeling like your conversation is being heard. Expect to spend 30-35 per roll. It’s a little pricey but it’s worth every penny & hits all your cravings at once. Enjoy! ”
“ I was very excited to find out they have Gluten Free rolls. It was such a treat. ”
“ Omg what a gem of a place. The crab roll and lobster roll were perfect. I couldn’t choose between the two and I’m glad I got both. Fast and helpful service. ”
“ Dayuuuuuum that was a mighty fine lobster roll. Yes, it’s expensive but you get what you pay for. Love the offering of cape cod chips as well! Will def be back again! ”
“ I have been to other Luke’s lobster location, this one is paritcularly spacious and food quality is consistent. I got the warm lobster roll, spicy honey lobster roll, and lobster mac. Most of the rolls are cold, so it is nice to try the warm lobster roll and have to order one of my favorites – spicy honey lobster roll as well. Lobster Mac on the other hand is alright, the pasta they used is quite unique but flavor wise is just okay, and not a huge fan of the breadcrumbs on top. ”
“ If you're in Philly and wanting a little piece of New England, stop by Luke's Lobster of Rittenhouse. The lobster roll flight is what you should get if you've never been. Once you figure out which roll you like best you can ask for that on a lobster roll. They will also make it warm if you ask for it. If not you'll get them cold with a little spread of mayo. ”
“ I am a big fan of lobsters and it’s so hard to find a lobster roll in Philly. So after reading the reviews, I decided to give it a try. I got the lobster roll flight - three lobster rolls with different sauce on top. I also asked them to be served warm. The flight comes with a bag of chip and soda from Maine. Poppyseed coleslaw is an add on and quite delicious. Overall, the lobster rolls are just delicious and I love all 3 sauces. The quality of lobster meats is even better than regular lobster roll shop at Maine. Would definitely recommend lobster lovers to give it a try! ”
