Maine Lobster Roll
Ellen L.

Got the Maine lobster roll (cold) and was delicious with plenty of plump lobster. Fast service, look forward to returning!

I had a great experience at this spot. They share a kitchen with the Light Horse tavern next door so there are some ideas ticks menu options but also some different items exclusive to their menu. The atmosphere is also a bit different. The lobster garage is more casual, serving food in baskets and paper serving plates with plastic utensils. It's very dog friendly with outdoor seating. You order at the bar area and get a buzzer. You pick up the food when the buzzer goes off. I had the market price Lobster with coleslaw, baked potato and drawn butter. It was so good. I also had the octopus salad and sha a basket of fries. i was stuffed. i also bought a bottlw of white wine for myself, only $24 bucks. I really enjoyed my time at this place! Check it out if you're in Jersey and enjoy the waterfront and the ferry back to the city!

A great spot for a casual lunch outside when it's warm! The shrimp tacos on their specials menu were delicious.

Crab cake, cheese burger and calamari

I always wanted to try this place but the overall experience was "eh". The "crispy" calamari was very far from crispy so I would probably update that name on the menu and an extremely small portion. The crab cake was decent but I expected more lump crab meat for the price / restaurant type. It was a bit bready. The best item we had was probably the cheese burger, which at a "lobster garage" probably shouldn't be the case. Probably wouldn't go back. The employees were very nice though.

For the imbibers their drinks menu too!

Just moving into the Paulus Hook area of Jersey City. A friend recommended the seafood here. While it's in what was probably a garage it's romantic grunge look w electric candles is charming. Having said that we did Take-out. The 3 of us ordered New England Clam Chowder which was maybe the best I've had in many years. A slightly smoky finish, not too creamy but just enough. Really nice! 2 of us got the lobster rolls, one buttered/toasted + one cold - I had the buttered + liked it, wasn't quite warm enough as there was my hubby's delivery delay but good portion of lobster + home made chips which while a bit soggy still hit the spot. Hubby had the Cuban sandwich which was Really Good. Lots of pork/ham + melted cheese. Surprised it was so good @ a seafood place. Came with a few yucca fries (could have used a few more fries) with a garlicky garlic sauce the Best! The Kale Caesar was average + decent. Shared their blueberry cobbler with fresh whipped cream. Very Good cobbler! Too hungry to take pics but am enclosing their menu. Couldn't find their full menu anywhere so called the restaurant + they pleasantly texted to me! The food was ready within 20 minutes as they said. All in all a very nice dinner!

Casual and trendy garage transformed seafood joint in Jersey city ! I got the lobster roll II (with butter) along with fish and chips. Lobster roll was quite tasty and they didn't skimp on butter. However, lobster meat was cold and not the usual warm butter lobster roll. Coleslaw, Tartar sauce, fish & chips were pretty good as well. Reasonable quantity but slightly on the pricier side. Fairly priced beer and wine along with good seafood. Their menu offers all the seafood favorites along with oysters. A great joint to visit during summer. Will definitely go there for another round before it's too cold to dine outdoors ;)

If it's 65 degrees or warmer, get the pina colada. You won't regret it! The fries are also really good (I think they put old bay on em)
