Roll for $17 or combo (roll, soup, biscuits) for $20 Totally worth it, get the combo
Ali B.

My favorite lobster roll in Louisville, we barely have any. This older gentleman named Philip drive this food truck primarily around three spots, by norton hospital on chestnut, by UofL on Preston or on Bardstown rd. His location can be found on his Facebook page, be careful he has an older inactive page. The service is very friendly, when i told him I've been craving the lobster roll not knowing where his food was, he offered me a free drink and said hope you like it and see you next time. For the food, i suggest you get the combo which is $3 more than the roll. The combo includes includes a lobster roll chilled (traditional) or warm with butter, (Connecticut) and a choice of clam chowder or lobster bisque soup and two made in heaven biscuits and that's coming from a non biscuit foodie. As always bon appetit , and I can't believe that Yelp took badge away boo.

fresh lobster, soft bun, crispy biscuits and creamy soup, it really doesn't get better than this. The owner is friendly and nice. 10/10 would recommend

Lobster Roll
Emily L.

I love this food truck! This was the first one I tried once I moved to Louisville, and it was a great kickstart! I was lucky that this food truck stopped in my neighborhood because I do think it's difficult to find their truck schedule. The lobster roll, lobster bisque, and cheddar bay biscuits were so delicious. Every was so warm and fresh. I hope I'll be able to hunt this one down again!

What a super nice guy and what a great idea Longshot Lobsta is. For $4, the lobster bisque with 2 lobster cheddar biscuits is really tough to beat. The biscuits are good enough to get full off of. If he sold a dozen of them, I'd be tempted to buy them if I weren't watching my carb intake. The bisque was very tasty. Very strong lobster flavor, which makes sense and is what you want. It was thick enough for a solid snack/light lunch. Unless you really wanted to try it, I wouldn't chase this food truck down. But if it happens to be in your area, hit it up. You won't be disappointed.

Food truck!

Great front man! Super friendly and nice. I was the first customer of the day so I got a complimentary biscuit. So sweet! Food truck outside of Humana building downtown Louisville: I'm a lobster roll conesueir. We try them all over the country, specifically, East coast fans. So, I'm tough. This lobster roll was great. I ordered traditional, a little Mayo, a little celery and seasonings. It had a great fresh flavor and the bun was just right with a wedge of lemon. I would have liked the lobster to be a little less minced, with bigger chunks, but it was plentiful. At a $15.00 per roll it's a bit over the $13- $14 I'm used to paying for some of the best, but, I paid without blinking and eye...so...there you go! My advice...GO EAT a lobsta roll!!! I loved supporting a truly nice guy, doing a great job!

Combo with CT style.
Chris A.

Fresh lobster. Really that's all you need. Perfectly cooked. Tender and delicious. Nothing complicated here. Lobster roll, regular or CT style (which I had) lobster bisque or clam chowdah. Cheddar bay biscuits. $18 for a combo. You won't be sorry. Such a wonderful treat.

pick two: Maine lobsta roll, lobsta bisque, cheddar bay biscuit. $12.

oh my. oh me, oh my! Lobster Roll craving was 100% satisfied Saturday while i was at The Flea Off Market. I knew we were going to the market, but once i read that Longshot Lobsta was in attendance, i no longer cared that a market even existed. The only reason i was going now was to get some lobsta!! Since they are fairly new (nov 2013 i believe??) i was expecting some kinks that needed to be worked out like most new businesses. However, this was not the case. At all. The menu: simple. The flavor: outstanding. The price: very reasonable! No funny business, just really good, high quality stuff folks. Where else can one get a lobster roll, bisque and a biscuit for only $12?! Speaking of money, Lobgshot Lobsta has saved me a ton! I no longer need to purchase a plane ticket to Maine for a lobster roll ;) This was a meal i'll never forget. It was that good! Besides, food knows its way to my soul ... and i believe i've found my soul mate. :)

Yummm!!!! Clam chowder and a traditional Lobsta roll :)
Michelle C.

Unfortunately I don't work downtown where a lot of the food trucks tend to congregate, but I do work right across from Park Community which has Food Truck Wednesdays (thank goodness!!). Longshot Lobsta is super delicious! I always get the Main Lobster Roll and it's perfectly proportioned - right amount of lobster to everything else on your yummy, toasty bun. While it is $10 which is a little pricey, you can add soup and a Chedder Bay Biscuit for only two more dollars!!! Why would you not do this?! I got their clam chowder which was a teeny bit lacking in the clam department, but still super delicious. And let me tell you about this biscuit, super delicious amount of flavor, flaky and hot and buttery, wow now I'm drooling on my keyboard. I can't wait until they come back and I can get some more!! If you see them around get a roll!!

Updated menu, prices are much higher

Our first visit to Yacht Sea Bar was definitely a memorable one!…read more Walking in, we immediately loved the decor. Everything was on theme, right down to the creative menu items. However, the initial experience was a little confusing. No one greeted us when we entered, and there was a group of at least 10 guys gathered around the bar. We asked if they were in line, and they explained they were ordering drinks. We stood around for probably another 15 minutes without anyone acknowledging us. Eventually, we decided to grab seats at the bar. We mentioned to the bartender that it was our first visit, which he acknowledged, but we weren't given any guidance on how ordering worked. Apparently, you either start a tab immediately or pay for everything upfront before receiving your food and drinks. Not a big deal at all, but a little explanation would have been appreciated! Now, let's talk about the FOOD because EVERYTHING WAS FANTASTIC! We ordered piña coladas, the Chi-ca-gogo (fried and wrapped in bacon), the evening's special clam chowder, and a bacon cheeseburger. Every single item was delicious. Compliments to the chef! The clam chowder arrived first, and the aroma alone had us ready to dig in! It wasn't your typical thick chowder, but it certainly wasn't lacking in flavor or ingredients. There were generous portions of clams, bacon, and potatoes. Absolutely delicious! The staff definitely runs a tight ship (pun somewhat intended), but a little more interaction, warmth, and lighthearted banter would really elevate the experience, especially for first-time visitors. Would I go back? Absolutely! The food alone is worth another visit. And now that we know the drill, we'll walk right in, grab a seat, and get straight to business! Great concept, fantastic food, and plenty of potential to make the overall experience just as memorable as the menu.

Meal started with complimentary seafood bread, which was saturated in butter and cheese. I selected the item Special K from the Chef's Specialty menu as my main. This was 1/2 pound shrimp and 1/2 pound snow crab legs with a corn cobette and 3 small red potatoes. I selected Old Bay and garlic butter sauce as my boil flavor and at a medium spice level. This meal was cooked well and had nice flavor and texture. Peel and eat shrimp were not rubbery and had split shell and deveined. The crab legs had about 1/2 to 1 cup (by volume) meat after the cracking and snapping. Cobette seemed tough and overdone. Potatoes were okay. A plastic bib, several pairs of clear gloves, a seafood cracker and pick tools, and wet wipes are delivered along with the meal. We also had a takeout order of scallops and okra, but ended up pitching them because the scallops were so chewy and rubbery as to be inedible. The okra was just okay and really did not seem to have much flavor or seasoning. Would maybe come back here for the seafood boil again if there was another certificate offer, but most likely am not inclined to revisit for a long, long time. In fact, it had indeed been over 3 years since my last stop here.

We walked in off the street and asked the host whether accommodating a vegetarian with additional dietary restrictions would be an issue. Within minutes of being seated, Chef Ciro Matteo Pirozzi came to our table, carefully discussed my restrictions, and personally helped create a wonderful dinner for me. The staff, food, and ambiance made it such a memorable evening that we returned the following night. Chef Ciro again took the time to walk the staff through his recommendations, and our second experience was every bit as exceptional as the first. From the general manager and chef to the entire staff, everyone made us feel genuinely welcomed and cared for. If you are visiting Louisville's Bourbon Row--especially if you have dietary restrictions--I highly recommend this restaurant!

My hubby and I have an ongoing, unspoken competition: who can find the best steak in Louisville?…read moreThe one spot we always wanted to try closed a few years back, so every new place now has some pretty high expectations to meet -- from meal quality to overall experience to value. Hubby took me to one of the oldest steakhouses in town last fall, and even with three adults, the bill was noticeably lower than what we spent at this establishment. Service here gets a solid 5 stars -- everyone was attentive and personable. Ambience earns a strong 4 stars with a nice vibe that fits the area. The menu itself is intriguing, and every dish we ordered came out at the right temperature and well‑executed. Overall flavor was good. The desserts, however, didn't quite match the caliber we hoped for -- though to be fair, we're not professional food critics, so take that for what it's worth. Not sure yet if we'd return. If we did, it'd probably be with a larger group so we could share the dishes we enjoyed and make the price point feel a little more balanced. That said, the location is perfect for out‑of‑towners staying at the nearby hotels and those hitting the area's higher‑end entertainment spots.

Really lucked out that I was able to snag one of the few curbside spots out front, but this was a 7 PM weeknight. There are pay parking lots nearby. Decided on the Smokehouse Sampler $36 to make everyone happy. This is easily enough food for several meals unless you're starving and/or a committed carnivore. The sampler included 4 ribs, pulled pork, tender sliced brisket, a quarter of dark roasted chicken, and andouille sausage links. This menu item does not include any specific choice of sides, but does have 2 sauce dips, fried onion, pickles, onions, and bread tucked into the order. Chose 2 separate orders for sides $6 each of succotash (smoky goodness with bits of roasted corn, Lima beans, tomato, green beans, onion) and fried okra (spicy crunchy coating and some whole okra in the mix), which thrilled my veggie-leaning appetite. Based on quality and quantity of food, would deem this a great value and as expected comparatively to other venues. Employees were welcoming and friendly with the ordering and pickup process. Restaurant seemed well staffed and bustling with more of a downtown touristy clientele, but worth a local visit if timed correctly. Would return in the future.

I ordered the shrimp and grits, and without exaggeration, they were the best I've ever had. The shrimp were perfectly cooked, and the balance of textures throughout the dish was incredible. Every bite had the perfect amount of crunch, flavor, and toppings. Nothing felt overwhelming or out of place. It was one of those meals where you find yourself slowing down just to enjoy every bite. Even the water deserves a mention. It was clean, crisp, and refreshing. If it came straight from the tap, I would have never known. It's a small detail, but it speaks to the overall dining experience when even something as simple as water stands out. The service was great, and the atmosphere was lively and welcoming. It's easy to see why this restaurant has built such a strong reputation. The reason I'm giving 4 stars instead of 5 comes down to accessibility. As a person with a disability, parking can make or break a dining experience. Unfortunately, there was no handicap parking available, and there were no nearby parking spots open when I arrived. I ultimately had to park in a hotel lot about a block away, which cost $25 for just two hours. Not only was the cost frustrating, but the additional distance was challenging given my mobility needs. The food was phenomenal and absolutely worth trying, but I do hope accessibility becomes part of the conversation for future guests. For those without mobility concerns, this may not be an issue, but for disabled patrons, it's something important to consider before visiting.

While the overall experience was enjoyable, the true highlight of our evening was the exceptional service! Our server, Stuar, was absolutely fantastic! There was a mix-up with my husband's drink, but as soon as I brought it to his attention, he corrected it immediately and without hesitation. We were considering ordering the deviled eggs as an appetizer, but I was hesitant about the truffle flavor. The manager was kind enough to let me sample the truffle before ordering. Let me tell you, if you're not a fan of strong truffle flavors, beware! It was incredibly overpowering for my taste. I genuinely appreciated their thoughtfulness because it saved us from ordering something we wouldn't enjoy and prevented unnecessary food waste. For dinner, I ordered the prime rib with a baked potato, and my husband had the filet mignon. My prime rib was good, and I enjoyed my baked potato. However, overall, the food was just okay. Nothing was particularly bad, but nothing really wowed us either. The drinks were decent, and the atmosphere was lovely. Now, let's talk about dessert! Because we were celebrating our anniversary, the restaurant treated us to a complimentary strawberry shortcake. My husband devoured the entire thing himself, so I'm assuming it was absolutely delicious! I also ordered the German chocolate upside-down cake to take home, and THAT was delicious! Why 4 stars instead of 5? Simply because while the service was easily five-star worthy, the food didn't quite reach that same level for us. I truly appreciate a restaurant that values customer service, pays attention to the little details, and makes guests feel welcome. Connors absolutely delivered in that department. We would absolutely return! The hospitality alone makes it worth another visit. Special thanks to Stuart and the manager for making our anniversary dinner a pleasant experience!
