    Lobster Flight COMBO - 10/10
    Britney C.

    My boo & I couldn't get enough of Luke's on our trip! Kept seeing this on Seattle TikTok and we decided to go on our first day in Seattle. We shared the flight which comes with 3 halves with their lemon butter, spicy and truffle butters. By far the best lobster roll I've had! The lobster was meaty and fresh and the toast it was served on was buttery. A bite that had my tastebuds dancing! So good they we decided to also order their lobster blt. The lobster was still great but I prefer to have my roll warm, not cold. And the lobster is so good, it doesn't need anything from the garden, just the butter. Great service, very accommodating when we asked for extra butter. Clean and good amount of seating. Not to sound like a fatty but we definitely went back two more times during our four day stay. It was worth spinning the block.

    Food is VERY pricey but my GOODNESS IT WAS SOOOO GOOD! A little too much butter and it made the roll soggy. Next time I come, I'll get the butter on the side. The cashier was very nice AND patient as I changed lobster roll sizes. Ambiance is family oriented. My bill was $63.60?with a very small bag of chips. I'm coming back and bringing my hubby!!

    Lobster Roll - Select (6oz) spicy honey butter
    Jeremy A.

    I stopped by here just to get something in my belly while at Pike Place. I had ate here in Boston some time ago. I believe this location was fairly new. I decided to go with the 6 oz Lobster roll with the hot honey butter. I wish I had read the menu better. When they offered the 4, 6 or 8 oz I opted for the 6. The hot honey butter was a $1 charge, which isn't bad at all. Though my final bill was over $50(with tip), which seems like a lot for a sandwich. But I get it, it is lobster, so I'll stop complaining. . Overall the bun was fluffy and tasty and the 6oz was A LOT. I can only imagine the 8 oz. I will more than likely come back as I saw both Lobster roll flights and crab roll flights(I think they were around $40. 3 different versions of each. I will say that I do like how everything comes with chips and a soda. Not just the cheap soda either. They had Bedfords which made me even happier. If money isn't an issue and you want a fantastic lobster roll, you will not be disappointed!!!

    Yum! Best lobster roll I've ever had! Hands down. And they have gluten free buns! Be sure to upgrade to truffle butter!

    Service was quick. Casual semi fast food dining ambiance. I was really looking forward to it because of all the hype but was sadly dissatisfied. For $30 I would have thought there would be much more flavor. It was pretty bland if you ask me and small too. Im still hungry after finishing the 4oz. I could have got the 6oz but I could not rationalize spending more than $30 for a sandwich. I'm glad I tried it but won't be coming back.

    Just got off our cruise ship and had time to kill and happened to walk by Luke's. I decided to try their 1/2 Lb lobster roll and it was excellent! I wanted to try their crab roll also but unfortunately they were out of crab the morning we went there. But I would definitely recommend Luke's!

    Friendly service even when you can tell they were busy. Line was out the door. Line moved pretty quickly. I was lucky to get a table. Noise is average and ambiance is nice. I went with the Luke's trio rolls which is 2 oz of meat. Supposed to be shrimp, crab and lobster. Wasn't feeling shrimp today asked if I could swap out the shrimp for an up charge they said sure. Asked for an extra butter. Cause the sweet honey butter had me intrigued but didn't want to commit. I asked for everything to be hot as I'm not a fan of cold crab. This was my only complaint. My crab was cold!!! :( So I didn't finish them and they were so busy I didn't want to make a fuss so I can't tell ya about the crab rolls but the lobster ones were fabulous and the spicy honey butter was fun and delicious. Worth giving it a shot.

    We each got a roll and split them, so the pictures show half the rolls. The full lobster roll had 6oz of meat in total and it was warmed, which was great. Price is a bit steep but not that surprising. We enjoyed them

    Michelle D.

    Originally I was not sure about the price, but afterwards, I found they give a Very generous servings of protein with the rolls which makes it reasonably price! They do not skimp at all on the seafood. I decided to try the seafood roll flight and glad I did. The roll they come on is also super soft, buttery and DANGEROUS lol. Service from Michelle was great and food came out pretty quickly.

    Seafood roll flight
    Jeannine C.

    Famous for the Rolls... but Missing a Little Something. I stopped by Luke's Lobster and ordered the seafood flight which consisted of 1 shrimp roll,1 lobster roll, and 1 crab roll. It's what they're known for, so I had to try the trio. The presentation was simple and clean, and the seafood itself tasted fresh, but I couldn't help feeling like something was missing. Each roll leaned a little dry and plain, almost like they needed a touch more butter or a signature sauce to bring it all together. The seasoning was very light, which might work for some, but I personally wanted more flavor. For a place that's famous for its rolls, I expected that "wow" bite and it just didn't quite hit that mark. Service was also just okay. Nothing terrible, but it lacked warmth or attentiveness. For the price point and reputation, I wanted a bit more energy and hospitality. Still, it's worth a visit if you love simple, no-frills seafood and want to sample a little bit of everything. Just don't expect bold flavors or much flair. I'd say it's more understated than indulgent.

    8oz Truffle Lobster roll warmed
    Cj B.

    This one hurts to write because Luke's Lobster used to be one of those places I'd happily recommend to anyone visiting Seattle. My husband Jordan and I stopped in today before catching a flight, excited to treat ourselves to one of our favorite seafood meals. He ordered the flight, and I ordered the warm 8oz Truffle Lobster Roll. The first impression was great. The food looked absolutely amazing. The lobster was generous, fresh-looking, and overflowing from the bun. If I had judged the meal based on appearance alone, it would have been a 5-star experience. Unfortunately, the flavor told a completely different story. Everything tasted surprisingly bland. The lobster lacked seasoning, and the truffle flavor that used to make this roll stand out was barely noticeable. I kept taking bites hoping that signature flavor would show up, but it never did. Instead, it felt flat and forgettable. What was especially disappointing is that Luke's has always been expensive--but it used to feel worth every penny. You paid a premium price because the quality and flavor were exceptional. This visit felt like the price stayed the same while the experience took a major step backward. We left feeling let down because this wasn't our first visit. We know how good these rolls used to be, which made the contrast even more noticeable. The food looked beautiful, but the taste simply didn't match the presentation. I sincerely hope this was just an off day because I'd love to see Luke's return to the quality that made it a Seattle favorite. For now, though, this visit was a disappointing reminder that appearance alone can't make up for missing flavor.

    While I wasn't expecting to have one of the best lobster rolls of my life in Seattle.... well, now I have. I was in town for the evening craving some seafood, so a few of us decided to try Luke's. This place caught our attention from the outside with how cute it is, and is right in the heart of the tourist area. It's small with not much on the menu, but you should know exactly what you want when coming in. And not only do they have lobster rolls, but also shrimp and crab rolls too, which I hadn't seen before! If you're feeling indecisive, you can get a flight of all three. Each roll also comes with chips and a drink. I went with a classic lobster roll and it was amazing. You can choose to have it chilled or warm. The bread was perfectly buttery and crunchy, too! I absolutely recommend Luke's for getting some good lobster in Seattle.

    Is there parking? And if so, what is the nearest parking to eat here?

    There is no designated parking I would suggest that you use an app called SpotHero to reserve parking in advance.

    How come you don't have the lobster mac & cheese everyday?

    Do you offer gluten free buns or other gluten free options?

    YES! We absolutely do Kristin. We can do any of our rolls gluten-free and also our clam chowder and lobster bisque soups are also gluten free. Thanks for the question. Chris GM

    Are the rolls made from live lobster or bagged claws & knuckles?

    Hi Dawn, thank you for your question. The answer is that we use claws and knuckles that are sourced from sustainable Maine waters, purchased directly from fisherman and processed in our own processing plant in Saco, ME. We then cook, cool and…

I received a promo for $5 off so I tried to use it the previous time, but she didn't know how to apply it. Then another time when I order The Caribbean Plato with pulled roasted pork, when I got home, I discovered the wrong type of meat (grilled pork instead of pulled pork). For these reasons, I didn't go back for a long time. Today, I went again to get take out for my visitors. I called in the order so I didn't have to wait, but Gisela didn't understand my order and kept getting it wrong. I ordered 3 Caribbean Plato with pulled pork, and 1 Caribbean Plato with chicken thigh, but she kept repeating the wrong order back to me (2 pork, instead of 3, wrong type of meat, etc), so I tried it again and again, still no comprendo. I got frustrated and told her that I would just come in person to order. I was in a hurry, but I had no choice. When I got there, I ordered the same thing, but this time, I gestured the type of pork I wanted, using my hands to show pulled and tried to explain that I wanted the shredded kind, not the solid kind). Someone was with me so he heard my order in plain English. As I was waiting for my order, I decided to ask her once more just to be sure that it wasn't the grilled pork bc she made that mistake last time. Then she said my meat was grilling now. I was alarmed since they don't get the pulled pork from the grill. I told her that I wanted PULLED ROASTED PORK, not the solid grilled patty kind. She said something in Spanish to the guy who was putting my order together and he showed me a sample of the pulled pork so I said "YES" that's the one I want. She said they were already cooking the grilled pork. When I told her that she was giving me the wrong order, she said "it's too late". I was so upset so I said, "why is it so hard to understand my order?" Pulled pork is pulled pork, not grilled pork. I never even mentioned the word "grilled". A guy came out from the kitchen so I explained myself and he said what I want is the pulled roasted pork and I said, "that's what I ordered". She tried to explain something to him in Spanish, but he told her to just give me the pulled pork and I was on my way. She just ruined my day, and I could feel my blood pressure rising. I don't think I will ever return again. It's too hard to explain the right kind of meat to Gisela. Dining out and getting take out should be a pleasant experience, not a stressful one.

We were able to get food on a Saturday around 4PM, and fortunately Big Mike's was one of the few places still open at the time. The armory is pretty accessible via the monorail, if you decide to drive, you will have to consider nearby streetside or venue/science center parking. Service is efficient - you place your order at the counter and they will call your name when your sandwich is ready. It took them about 10 minutes to get our sandwich out. There are plenty of tables just outside of the restaurant where you can dine. We got the ribeye cheesesteak for $23, which also came with a bed of fries just underneath the sandwich. The sandwich itself was piping hot, but just hot enough to enjoy without burning yourself. The steak was tender and had decent chew, sliced to a nice thinness. Personal preference, I would like the steak seasoned a bit more strongly as flavor-wise it does get a little one dimensional. This is definitely a touristy area part of town, and I would say that prices are pretty standard. For one person, you should be able to get a nice and filling portion for $18 - $23. I wouldn't consider this place a must visit if you are in Seattle - The flavors are decent and definitely will get you full in a pinch if you are really hungry and in the area.
