Schon 2017 waren wir dort im Urlaub essen und ist bis heute unvergesslich! Bester Fastfood ever. Und gutes Bier gabs dort auch, dunkel, würzig, kräftig.

One of our very favorite restaurants on the island. The food is amazing! The restaurant really is a Long Island icon.

I wish I’d taken pics of my food, but I was so excited to actually eat something on vacation- aside from pizza! (Though Mystic Pizza? I’d have eaten that EVERY DAY… but I digress!)
Anyhoo, vacations are not usually something that involve me being able to eat very much, as I’m ALLERGIC TO FISH AND SHELLFISH! This was something that developed in my early 30’s, so unfortunately for me, I’d known seafood intimately, and we had a wonderful relationship. Imagine my surprise when I go to a seafood restaurant and blow up like, well, you get it.
Anyway, I was excited for my husband to eat at The Lobster Roll, as we’d been fans of The Affair! (At least the first 4 seasons, but don’t get me started there…) Anyway, we went after Labor Day in late September! The weather couldn’t have been any more beautiful. We had a 45 minute wait that was actually more like 20 minutes. The server was excellent and super sweet. She came over to get our orders, and I told her “I’ll just have a Diet Coke— I can’t eat at seafood restaurants because of possible cross contamination, as I'm allergic. ” It’s something I’m used to saying, and I’ll usually try a dessert if I feel safe, or maybe some crackers. Well… you cannot imagine the excitement I felt when the server told me they had a gluten free fryer! So that means that I could eat some chicken tenders as well as ACTUAL FRENCH FRIES! (Most places fry their fish with EVERYTHING… it’s so depressing. Im lookin’ at you, Cheesecake Factory and every Mexican/Chinese restaurant.ever. I MISS IT SO MUCH!) so the designated GF fryer could be used for my fries, and I could eat GF chicken tenders! My husband ordered a LR, of course, and he loved his. For the first time since being diagnosed, I was able to comfortably eat something fried, and it’s couldn’t have been better! I asked for ranch, and it was def homemade, which makes life SO MUCH BETTER. I can’t believe I’m saying this, but I even loved the GF chicken tenders! I’m obv chatty, but this review is prolly the longest I’ve ever written…sorry for being long-winded, I just can’t say enough good things! We wanted to get something like “Cherry’s Pies” when we left, but we settled on an Oreo (cookies & cream?) cupcake, which was huge and delicious. My husband has a beer, so all in all, I think our bill was $60, so $75 after tip.) That’s expensive where we come from, but if we lived near them, we’d be eating there weekly. Thank you so much Lobster Roll… you’ve officially made this girl the happiest I’ve been at a restaurant on vacay (and even home!) in 8ish years. I love you forever. ️️️
If you’re planning on taking a trip, make SURE you go to TLR. They are the BEST.

Visited this place in summer as a tourist attraction after watching The Affair tv show. Still preserving the same setup inside and outside giving the great feel of living in the show and actors. Tried their famous lobster roll and it’s delicious. Also tried the salad with veggie patty and it’s super rich with pistachios, cranberries and lot of veggies. Higher on the price range and there is long wait in the peak season but worth the wait.

Great place to enjoy your meal with a great atmosphere. The lobster rolls and soups are outstanding. Worth the trip and can't wait to go back

It was off season so luckily it wasn't too crowded when we went, but service was good and prompt.

The lobster bisque was delicious, up there with some of the best I have had. The lobster roll was also great, they definitely give you a healthy portion of lobster per serving.

Overall it was a pleasant experience and I would definitely go back again.

The service was great and the service was kind and warm. The food was good and came out very fast with no mistakes whatsoever. The only complaint is that the lobster was overpriced and cold. The decor seems seafood restaurant cliche, it could use some differentiation. All in all, quite good.

Ok so this place stole my heart this year. The food OMG the food is just utterly amazing. The service the friendly staff, cleanliness the atmosphere. This is the type of place where you really beg for summer to last forever. Lobster roll slamming, burgers slamming, tuna and swordfish entree slamming. Gotta go and check this place out. Take a trip to montauk point light house and stop here for lunch it’s literally on the way. You can’t miss this spot.

Ate here for lunch.
First time here and I have to say this place lives up to its reputation. We hade the hot and cold lobster rolls. Both were great. The frozen key lime pie was to die for. Good drinks and the service was fantastic. Will be back.

Extremely friendly staff, melt in your mouth laborer rolls. Both the hot and cold are very, very good. If the line looks long don’t worry, it moves very quickly. Hang in there.

Great celiac friendly lobster roll! It's not easy to find gluten free safe restaurants that are also delicious!
Ps- the gf chocolate cupcake with chocolate frosting was to die for! I might drive out there just for a cupcake!

The lobster was fresh and clean flavor with celery in buttery bread. A very good lobster roll! Coleslaw needed a little more acid.

Best lobster rolls. Fried Calamari and mussels are fantastic. Service is great. Staff are the best. A must stop for great food. Can't wait for the New 2nd location in South Hampton.

I used to love this place but after my last visit two weeks ago I have one thing to say: stay away. The food is sub par, the drinks are terrible, the service is lacking and the prices are way too high. Opt instead for the Clam Bar just a few hundred feet away.

Unpretentious, however, iconic place in the Hamptons! Great to stop for a lunch on your way to Montauk. Very friendly and supportive staff. Good food: We had the Lobster Roll as a bowl (yummie!) and the Sword fish steak from grill – solid quality! They know definitely what they do. Nice American Diner ambience with a very little splash of a French vibe. Enjoyed sitting outdoors.
