What I wrote thereFold it away

Opened in NYC in 2009, Luke’s Lobster is a family owned business bringing Maine style lobster rolls to the masses. It didn’t take long for the small shack to expand, heck, it now operates in 10 states! I know seafood can be pricey, but believe me the premium is worth it. Luke’s Lobster buys directly from trusted fishermen and you can taste the quality with every bite.

There’s also crab and shrimp rolls, as well as lobster mac & cheese and an amazing clam chowder.
