Just a great lobster experience! I had the Boss which came with two sides. The lobster roll was good size and very tasty. I had clam chowder and beans for the sides. The clam chowder was good--but I've had better. The beans were ok. The superstar was the lobster. I highly recommend this place. It's not elegant. It doesn't have to be to enjoy the food. There's a little bit of a wait--but worth it!

Neat place close to the main streets and certainly much better than their Encinitas location. Service was friendly and quick. Lobster and shrimp rolls had the perfectly toasted bread and ingredients were fresh and perfectly cooked. My only gripe was the portion options were confusing and I wish they had a visual . The classic rolls are just too small. Clam chowder was ok but the lobster bisque was much better. Creamy and well balanced with shredded lobster, savory with a hint of acidity

If you're roaming around Coronado, Lobster West is a must stop. They have a couple tables inside, and a few tables outside on the patio for dining. It's a small spot so not really made for large groups. I got a lobster roll (duh) but went with the Boss which packs in 50% more meat. It'll cost you a pretty penny though, at $31 but to me, it's worth it. An extra $4 will make it a combo which offers two sides. I enjoyed the baked beans, as they weren't too sweet. The cole slaw was just okay.. you're probably better off with their kettle chips to add some crunch to your meal. The lobster roll was everything I wanted it to be. It was packed full of succulent lobster and the roll was buttery soft. It looks small but add on the sides and it'll fill you right up. The lemon wedge with my roll was kinda small so I do wish they would have given a larger piece, but it's okay. FYI - It's only a short walk from the Old Town trolley stop. If you took the tour, their little booklet has a coupon for a free scoop of soup. I had the clam chowder but there are 3 soup options. Add extra black pepper and you have something warm and hearty to round out your meal.. plus it's free! If it's free, it's for meeee.

This place is awesome. Real lobster on a perfectly toasted bun. None of the lobster salad stuff, this is real hunks of delicate, tender and tasty lobster. Wish we had this place in South Bay LA. Must try when you are in Coronado plus a nice little outside patio. The service was friendly and A+. A must every time in SD.

The lobster roll is so delicious. The bun is buttery and perfectly toasted and there is a decent amount of lobster. I got the Flight of Soups and all were good but I really just love the Lobster roll so if you order one thing go for the Lobster roll and you won't regret it

Salt water in the air, a beach picnic with a Maine lobster roll - pretty much as good as it gets! This Coronado get away is perfectly situated right next to the beautiful historic Hotel Del! They also have a location in La Jolla, but it's a little off the beach. Ordered the epic Maine lobster roll (the rolls are offered 3 sizes - depending on how much lobster or crab you would like). Rolls are served up on a perfectly toasted warm garlic roll! I recommend to ask for butter on the side, so you can choose how much you want to add. The lobster meat is very sweet and tender, very fresh! But they also offer crab rolls as well. You add sides such as baked beans, coleslaw (yummmmm), and others! Sides are offered in 3 different sizes - which is great depending on how big your group is. Or, if it's just you! I really liked the casual beach vibe of the location in Coronado - patio tables and the restaurant was very clean, with fast friendly service! Lovely spot to stop for a lunch and walk near the Hotel Del! Highly recommend!

The buttered roll was so tasty and I think that was the highlight of the lobster roll. The portion is kinda small but still amazing. Definitely pricey because it is lobster. Service was good, as the person took my take out order handed the food to me, even though he could have just called out my order. Ambiance is good with reggae music, fits the ocean beach vibes.

This is the #1 lobster dish in San Diego county according to Yelp. This is our second time here and it was what we expected. They don't have that many tables so you may need to wait for one. You order at the counter, but we had to wait a while for someone to take the order. Food came out really quick. The clam chowder was good, but could've been warmer since it was borderline room temperature. The lobster roll was delicious with lots of meat and dripping butter. This is a very casual spot that is family and pet friendly. It's a 30-40 min walk from the ferry drop off area with google maps routing. Keep in mind jay walking is legal just dodge the cars!

I didn't expect to eat a lobster roll in San Diego, but I couldn't pass it up, especially at a spot that specializes in lobster! After walking around Coronado, we stopped here around 1:00P for a late lunch. The small restaurant has some seating inside and outside, but it does fill up quick. Although it was busy, we managed to grab a table on the patio right after we placed our order at the counter. Our food arrived shortly after we got settled and retrieved water from the self-serve station outside. Their menu features full-size lobster, crab and shrimp rolls, but for those who want to try more than one type, you can order a pair or trio of "half-size" rolls. I ordered the DUELING CLAWS ($20) which included a half-size lobster roll and half-size crab roll. The pieces of lobster were smaller chunks, but plump and sweet. The crab was delicate, with sweet and slightly briny notes. Both tasted super fresh and contained minimal mayo, so I appreciated how the natural flavors shined through. Each one had a dash of spices and a wedge of lemon came on the side. The bread was perfectly toasted and buttered in my opinion, being crispy on the outside and soft inside. Others in my group ordered the CLASSIC LOBSTER ROLL ($22) which had much larger pieces of lobster compared to my smaller roll. While seafood is generally on the pricier end and this location is also in a pretty touristy area, I still wouldn't say the prices were completely justified. I would have liked to see a side item included with any of their seafood rolls for a more well-rounded meal. If you want to add on sides, it is an extra $4 for your choice of two. All things considered, we enjoyed our visit here and I'd recommend it if you're seeking a lighter lunch or lobster roll with no frills.
