This is also known as Angie's Lobster - they have TWO Yelp accounts.
Lindsy & Dani Eat A-Z started off with an A+ here at Angie's Lobster!
The curb appeal is catchy and inviting. The fresh colors of the exterior draw you in.
The entry doesn't match the outside and is a bit surprising, as it is bland and stark.
There really isn't another place (I can think of) like this one, so I'll do my best to explain (see photos for visual understanding) There is a lot of open space with a few screens up on the wall to the left. These screens display the menu options - there are so many good ones!
Once you've decided, place your order on one of three touch screens on the wall. Ordering was self explanatory and pretty easy to follow. The print is large and would have been easy to read, but the glare of the sun shining through the windows made it a bit difficult.
The photos of the rolls look like such a generous portion my friend and I decided to share the Warm North Atlantic Snow Crab Roll. We decided on the lemon butter for the sauce, but I'd try spicy honey next time. We opted for the meal which came with fries and what I believe is Angie's Sauce to dip, plus a drink. The menu has you choose your soda flavor, ice quantity and add-ins, but in reality they give you a cup and you go fill it yourself at the drink station.
You find yourself a seat and wait until they call your name. Our name was called shortly after we filled our drinks (unsweet iced tea and Dr Pepper). Both were cold, crisp and fresh! **They don't offer straws or knives, only sippy cup lids and forks found here.
I am SO BUMMED I forgot to take a photo of our roll! I think I was taken aback at how small it really was. I was starving and looking at the portion we were about to share, I knew I was still going to be starving when we were done. The Snow Crab was indeed warm, fresh and delicious. The french fries were warm and tasty too.
I really enjoyed my North Atlantic Snow Crab roll and would definitely order it again. HOWEVER, they have signs all over stating they are able to keep prices low because of their sparse set-up (no cashiers, wait staff, bussers, etc) and limited supplies (nothing but forks and no straws) they also do NOT buss their tables, you as the customer are asked to that before you leave. All which are fine, BUT the prices are NOT LOW!! The tiny roll we split with fries and a drink was $15 - that's not low in my opinion. I do understand fresh, delicious crab and lobster is a premium food so I guess I just need to wrap my mind around the cost. I did look at the other menu items (fries, drink, bowl, wrap, salad) and they are indeed low in cost.
Like I said, I really liked my roll and will definitely be back to order myself a whole one soon.
**Dear Angie's, PLEASE invest in window coverings, or tint the windows. The sun makes it difficult to read the menu screens and order and it's also really warm in the dining area. It was 75 degrees outside and we were sweating inside. I cannot imagine how stinky and hot this place will get in the summer.
