    Blueberry pie

    Very clear and honest pricing for lobster dinner. Two person dinner came with two lobsters, two corn, and 1/2 lb (ish) of clams. Good fresh lobster. Enjoyed the outdoor "lobster boil" feel. The unsung hero of this place? Blueberry Pie y'all. Blue-berry-pie. Boom. It's $14 for pie with ice cream, and worth it.

    I love the ambience of this lobster joint. Mostly just lobster with mussels tossed into your basket along with fresh corn and butter, and the service is outstanding. The lobster was so sweet and the people running things want nothing but your happiness, which is clear.

    Find the lobster cut out and you're here!

    7500 miles around the US on our month long road trip and I DREAM about the lobsters eaten here. Left Acadia National park in the early evening and wanted some fresh lobster for our last night in Maine. Literally saw this place on the side of the road and my fiancé remembered seeing it on yelp a couple days ago. Made the fastest U-turn ever, and ended up in this cute parking lot ("for lobster lovers only!") ready to eat! The ladies that we met at the front while ordering and when sitting down waiting, were SO friendly. We were told by one of them that her husband had just gotten these lobsters that morning! We got a special with two 1 and a half lb lobsters, a pound of mussels, and two ears of corn for $58! Added on a blueberry soda and Leon blueberry whoopie pie and I was in HEAVEN. The freshness of literally everything was amazing, not even needing butter to taste delicious & the whoopie pie was just the right amount of sweet without being overly sugary! There were a couple of tables, in which we shared one with some new friends!, lots of paper towels at the ready on your table, a clean portapotty bathroom, and sink with soap for after you eat! The most spontaneous stop left us craving these lobsters back home in Vegas! Can't wait to go back to Maine for some more of this! Thank you ladies!

    1.25 lb steamed lobster, 2 lbs mussels

    Came here at the tail end of the season, after I checked into my accommodations down the road. I came here for dinner and managed my expectations. It's the end-of-the-season, so I had a feeling they'd be out of some things. No blueberry pie, no clams, and no corn got me slightly disappointed. However, we ordered two 1.25 pound lobster dinners with 2+ lbs of mussels. I'm a New Englander and I've had my share of lobster. The lobster I had here must have been one of the best I've had. It was succulent, slightly sweet, but briny at the same time. The lobster was steamed nicely and wasn't overcooked. Plus I didn't open it to have a gallon of water pouring out, so it felt like a worthwhile lobster. The mussels were fantastic as well, with lots of savory, plump mussels to accompany the lobster. I would've loved to have tried the steamed clams but I can live with mussels. So yeah, no carbs, but I'm trying less of that these days? Except I snuck in a croissant from Standard Baking in Portland during that dinner. I tried to come again early evening another day but they had already ran out of food. Do come early.

    1 3/4 pounder with mussels and corn

    1 3/4 pounders .... It's so amazing, you won't regret stopping! Ditch the butter and just taste the lobster, it's incredible! The mussels are delicious as well and the corn tastes like it just got picked today, so sweet and a perfect compliment to the seafood! Highly recommend 10/10!

    Given all the wonderful reviews, I had to take my lobster loving wife to Rose Eden for the quintessential lobster shack experience. She grew up in New England, with wonderful memories as a child, so it was a no brained. I'm not as enamored with lobster, but we couldn't turn down the $55 lobster dinner bucket. You order at the window, grab a beer or soda (sorry no wine) and head over to a picnic table to wait. In a few minutes, they bring over a bucket with two delicious lobsters, two ears of corn and a pile of steamed mussels (or clams go a few bucks more). Simply incredible, and such a great deal. So glad we stopped.

    Aw, snap! I'm not trying to butter you up but this lobster is the Maine attraction! The owners are not shellfish with servings and the #2 was sea-sational! The corn will a-MAIZE you and the mussels be flexin'. Everything here was clawsome!

    There is a reason Rose Eden is number one on Yelp. Just go, it's worth it. If you want the Bar Harbor Lobster experience Rose Eden is the place to go. You will get the classic steamed lobster, corn, and some mussels. The only thing missing was the lobster bib!

    Rose Eden.

    What an amazing experience and price. It was $50 for 2, everything included, you really can't beat this price in town. Jacob was very helpful. Thanks for the great dinner.

    Smaller lobster shop off the road. Limited parking spots too so had to park along the grass. By the time we arrived, which was about 6pm they ran out of some food. They didn't have any 1 3/4 and 1 1/2 lbs lobsters, pie, or mussels left. The dinner specials included two lobsters, corn, and mussels or clams ($5 additional). I had to wait about 30 minutes until I reached the front of the line. When I placed my order, the lady went into the fish tank and grabbed the lobsters. She weighed them and quoted me $55 cash for the dinner special. Since they ran out of the mussels she did not up charge the clams. We grabbed a table and were served freshly cooked lobster. There's a vending machine with soda for $1.75, but otherwise it's BYOB. The lobsters were soft shelled and was much easier to crack into. The husbands of the shop are fisherman so the lobsters were super fresh. The two ladies that run the shop were so nice too. Tip: come early or call ahead to place an order for pick up. BYOB.

    This was my first time going to a "lobster pound" and it was everything I could have hoped for! We arrived at 5:30 on a Monday and ordered a #2 lobster dinner (1.5 pound lobsters). Unfortunately they were out of mussels, but since we wanted blueberry pie the cashier gave us pie instead of mussels. Worked out for us! I'm experienced with Maryland blue crabs but this was my first time opening a lobster on my own, and it was fairly intuitive (if you're new crustaceans maybe it's not? Google it!). Anyway, the corn was fantastic and the lobster meat was so tender and sweet. I used the butter but didn't need to. Truly the best whole lobster I've ever had. Also, the blueberry pie was divine. It was nothing like the squishy and watery blueberry pies I've had at home. This was incredible. It's a very small operation and there's only 6-8 tables, so you may want to arrive at an off time to guarantee getting a table. When we left just after 6 there was a very long line. I would definitely come back here again and hopefully can try the mussels next time. Two lobsters plus sides for $40 is a great deal where I'm from.

The bread for the hot roll doesn't add to the lobster which is by far the star of the show.

I like that this place isn't overly busy, and it has great food and service. On top of that, I think their Lobster Dinner deal for two is an excellent deal. You get two lobsters, two ears of corns, and mussels to share for a very reasonable price. The lobster at C-Rays was a great size, and it was well cooked.

There's a generous amount of outdoor seating, and also an area to play cornhole and listen to a guy play live music. Service was super friendly (owner is a local) and was happy to chat to us about Acadia and things to recommend doing. I'll definitely come by again if I'm ever in Acadia.
