I came here for lunch during my last full day in Boston. The customer service here is superb. I was…read morehelped right away at the counter and was even given a free brownie once I mentioned I was in town for a birthday trip, eager to try my first lobster rolls. Totally wasn't expecting any kind of birthday discount or mini freebie, but the gesture was greatly appreciated. I've never been a big fan of the texture of shrimp, crab, nor lobster. But how can you visit the area and not try a lobster roll? For lunch, I got a cold quarter pound lobster roll accompanied by a bowl of clam chowder and a couple of pickles. The lobster was plump, fresh, and didn't taste too fishy - just quality lobster meat. My meal also came with chips and a drink of my choice. I even ended up getting a hot lobster roll and inhaled that later in the day because I enjoyed my first one so much.

First time is Boston so I figured let me check the lobster roll and clam chowder off my list…read more Although there are many places and other cuisines to choose from, something about this spot caught my eye in the Faneuil Hall Market. This place is in food hall, so you will need to find a place to sit or stand to eat. The line was long, which is a good sign but the service was quick. The price is steep ($40) but it looks like this is the price everywhere in Boston. The roll was filled with lobster chunks, I didn't feel swindled. The clam chowder was also very tasty. I'm glad they offered a combo!

The world famous Quincy's Market houses many vendors and experiences worth trying while in Boston…read more You can wind up spending a whole day in the area or simply at the market in and of itself. There are 3 distinct Quincy's Markets that offer a whole variety of food options and local produce and souvenirs; there's so much to choose from and do. Wicked Lobster is definitely up there when it comes to some of the best Lobster Rolls I've had in the New England Area, but the price vs portion ratio was a bit off. Honestly, I just wish navigating the market without spending $100 at just one of the vendors was more common. Some people argue you'd be better off getting food elsewhere instead of the market for seating and portion control, but I'm glad I gave Quincy's a shot. The history and prestige of visiting the spot is worth going on its own and the food is genuinely good quality and fresh. The whole area is near the water is branching off from the Freedom Trail, so the atmosphere and vibes are high and full of adventure and exploration. Pay Quincy's a visit and give the vendors a shot if you're not afraid to spend some money for the day.

We each ordered a bread bowl from a different vendor and had a taste test…read more Best one was BOSTON CHOWDA! Rich, savory soup with hearty amount of clams. Bread bowl was crusty sourdough.

AMBIANCE Parking: Street parking, it could get pretty busy so plan accordingly Seating: Inside seating good for groups and individuals, room for maybe 30 people Vibes: Bostonnnnn! You're in an active area. A balance of neighborhoods and small businesses area. One floor are shops and the other is all houses/apartments. The restaurant itself is pretty simple. Photos of Boston and sailing arts here and there. The pop music was pretty comforting. Great place for a simple food adventure. FOOD / DRINKS Lobster Ramen (A-Ok) You have the option of instant-style ramen or their house mix. It's a solid bowl with a good amount of noodles, broth, and seafood. The blend of lobster and crab keeps it more affordable while still giving you that seafood flavor. Overall, a nice option--more casual than traditional ramen, but still enjoyable. SERVICE Great! Responsive and friendly. TL;DR OVERALL 3.5 stars. Good food, fair prices, and an overall pleasant experience. It leans more toward approachable, crowd-pleasing flavors rather than artisan, but still a solid spot to check out. TIPS * They got a good range of how you want to eat your seafood - fries, soup, sandwiches * OG location 2.0

I really wanna give this place good marks, but seeing that I eat a lot of lobster from other…read moreestablishments, the lobster roll here was OK. The meat wasn't sweet and it tasted like it was previously frozen and it wasn't anything special. The bread was bland. Store manager Glenda was so sweet and accommodating. She was just a delight and really wanted to have us have a great experience. We did sample the clam chowder and the lobster bisque. Again, it was OK. The chowder tasted a little chalky and it was overbearing so you couldn't really taste clam. And the bisque was too creamy. A traditional bisque has to have more of the lobster and sherry flavor traditionally but seeing that this one was cream based, it masked the true flavor of the richness of the lobster base. I suppose if you're somebody who never tried a lobster roll, you can come here, but I've just eaten way too many of them to know what is the best. To be fair, I wanna give it another chance and maybe i'll have a better experience. The location is perfect in Back Bay.
