Out of all the restaurants we tried, Luke’s was the best place! The lobster flight was fantastic, and holy lobster were they filled with lobster. Absolutely delicious sauces and the lobster bisque was amazing! The manager and chef were also funny, sweet and served very quickly. I can’t wait to come back next time!

Lots of indoor and outdoor seating, the lobster tasted delicious and fresh, and the staff is friendly. You can order at the register and then sit anywhere you like. I got the 4oz warm lobster roll and it is both pricey and small, but that was expected.

My second time after DC. Excellent food as always, for those lobster, crab, and shrimp lovers! Love the location, especially the public garden next to it.

Love their lobster roll and crab roll! I’ve been here twice during my trip to NYC, and ordered the trio for the first time, their crab and lobster taste good, but I don’t like the shrimp.

Their delivery options are amazing. We got the lobster, crab, and Maine scallops. Spectacular combo, I highly recommend for any event or a dinner with friends. Luke’s is famous for their lobster which is of course 10/10, but their connections with fisherman in Maine ensures that everything is fresh off the boat.

My husband and I stopped here for lunch in July when they had the Dungeness crab roll. I had it and it was amazing! My husband’s lobster and bisque was also very delicious. This is somewhere I would return to when we vacation in NYC again.
