    Lobster Landing - lobster roll with a view

    We ended up coming to Lobster Landing twice during our trip -- once on the way to Mystic and again…read moreon the way back -- which probably says everything you need to know. It's definitely a little more expensive than some of the other lobster spots we tried, but I honestly liked the food here the most. The lobster meat is lightly seasoned with what tasted like butter and lemon, and it all worked perfectly together without overpowering the lobster. The bun was incredibly soft and loaded with so much meat that it was practically falling apart in the middle. We got the half-pound lobster roll both times and would absolutely order it again, but it is $60. The clam chowder was also excellent. It's creamy without being too thick, and you can really taste all the ingredients. The hot dogs seem to be really popular -- almost everyone was ordering a lobster roll and a hot dog combo. My son loved them so much he had two the first visit! The outdoor seating and water views make it such a relaxing place to sit and eat, and there's also a market on-site where you can buy lobster and shellfish. Definitely one of our favorite stops and somewhere we'd happily return to.

    Great stop off of the highway for lunch! The views were picturesque while waiting in line. The line…read moresnaked down the sidewalk on Labor Day, but moved quickly. After ordering, our food was bagged and ready to go in no time. The lobster roll was very meaty and buttery-- probably one of the best I had on my weekend trip through CT/RI/MA. The surprisingly tasty item was the sausage and peppers sandwich. For a place known for lobster, this sausage sandwich was very flavorful and loaded with peppers and

    We've been here several times when out this way for the outlets. We like to sit in the bar area,…read morewhich is more our vibe. The service is always great. I get the lobster roll every time. This past time, it didn't taste fresh. The lobster was a little chewy. It's been great every other time I've ordered it, so I will try again!

    We were at the Outmets on a Friday afternoon and decided to try a new spot (for us). We randomly…read morecame here (but the place across the street looked good too!), and had a good meal with excellent service Olin a relaxed atmosphere which is exactly what we wanted. We were after lunch but before dinner (around 3:00) so it wasn't busy. We sat at a high top On the bar area and our server was the bartender. He was excellent throughout and checked in often - we appreciate that. It wasn't busy but we've all seen others just BS with co-workers when they're slow versus this. We started by sharing a bowl of lobster bisque and it was excellent! Thick, with a nice sherry overtone and small bits of lobster - lots of them. We both really liked it - better than most others we've had. I had stuffed shrimp abd liked the stuffing - not too dense with a little bit of crab, shrimp and breadcrumbs and whatever else - it all worked well! Very good stuffed shrimp BUT, just 3 shrimp. I thought that was small for an entree that I don't believe was a lunch plate or anything. Fries were good and so were the fresh julienne vegetables. My wife had the regular size lobster roll and just like mine - hers was excellent but a tad smaller than what we get closer to home. But lobster tasted fresh and not overcooked; very tender and flavorful. We had excellent food & service. The decor is a tad dated but that always seems to work and be the way it is with seafood restaurants in shore areas.

    Shanks Waterfront Dining - Lobster Nachos

    Alright, Shanks, you've got my summer heart…read more Stopped by this beachside gem in Clinton, and let me just say: it's the kind of spot that feels like vacation, even if you're only there for lunch. I had every intention of ordering the lobster nachos (because hello?!), but the portion looked massive. I will definitely be coming back for that with a friend. I pivoted and grabbed a lobster roll instead, which came with crunchy house made chips and coleslaw. The chips were so yummy and crispy and salty, I almost finished them before I had my first bite of the lobster roll. Even the water they brought over was crisp and cold, which I truly appreciated on a warm afternoon. Also, I tried the clam chowder, because if you're by the water in New England, it's practically a requirement. Clammy, creamy, and comforting...just how it should be. Again, almost finished and filled up before my first bite of the lobster roll! I felt satisfied with the smaller, 4oz roll. The roll was perfectly toasted and there was just enough butter to moisten up the plump lobster. I'm drooling just writing this. It started off pretty quiet, but the crowd picked up once the live music kicked off. The vibe was exactly what you'd want: easy, breezy, and full of locals who clearly knew this was the spot. The bathrooms outside are a new addition from the last few years. Very clean and practical. I just love the vibe of this place. Food? Delicious. Service? Wicked awesome. Cleanliness? Impeccable. Don't forget to add that the food came out in under 20 minutes. Already planning my return to try the ahi tuna sandwich and finally conquer those lobster nachos. And yes, it's BYOB, so bring a cooler and bring some wine. Then claim a picnic table, and make an afternoon of it!

    We've been long overdue for a trip back to Shanks! We visited on what was probably one of the…read morehottest days of the year, but the breeze was so nice from the water that it didn't even phase us. They had live music, so it was a nice vibe that night. We appreciated that the staff brought the food up to us, and it all came out quickly. I wasn't expecting so many unique options like the crab Rangoon flatbread or lobster nachos, but they were great!! Definitely keeping this spot in mind for future waterfront meals.
