Very nice and pretty upscale surf 'n' turf place, with a lively bar. It is pricy , but has excellent atmosphere and delightful decor, with a touch of a yachting experience. Good selection of starters and main courses with seafood, lobster and good cuts of steaks. Private room and a private bar for private functions and corporate events. See photos. An outdoor but coveted patio for nice Florida winters is also very delightful.

Food was delicious! Shrimp with shrimp cocktail were so fresh. Octopus appetizer was tender and had a great lemon flavor. Filet was cooked wonderfully and fried lobster tail that we added on had a great flavor. Crunchy on the outside but soft on the inside. Lobster bisque was smooth and creamy. Drinks were wonderful! One of the best dirty martinis I've ever had. Service was good. Ambiance is perfect. The restaurant was so beautiful inside and I love all the details.

Five Star all the way. Dined here at beginning of a birthday vacation. The bar was great for Martinis before our meal. The food and atmosphere were amazing. Great caviar service.

It was my first time at Lobster bar and I will def be coming back and recommending it to others… my bartender Tarin made a beautiful cocktail that calmed me down for the first date Jitters and gave me some beautiful advice while being attentive to her job and other customers… our server Christine was efficient, sweet and made sure we had a wonderful experience, beautiful recommendations and such a lovely person… I could tell that everyone there really loved their job. 10/10 for sure for Lobster Bar 💕

Beautiful restaurant with great atmosphere. 4 of us ate for about $250 /ea, probably 6 drinks included. The stone crab stole the show. We got the seafood tower And it was okay. The ceviche in it was good. The octopus was overcooked and dry. The chocolate ganache was absolutely insanely good. I would come back for that anytime. Skip the lobster papperadelle. Tomahawk steak was just alright. Seared tuna was good

Perfect delicious experience but management should follow on their guidelines not to allow men in tennis shoes or worst in SANDALS as there was. That makes the restaurant fall into a much lower class than it promotes itself. Besides I don’t think is nice to spend $350 for dinner while having some guys toes exposed on next table. Cristina our server outstanding job.

We found this place by chance we got in and got seated right away. The lobster bisque was so good if it wasn’t such a beautiful place I would have licked the plate clean. My wife got steak and a wedge salad and it was so tender and perfectly cooked and the bread that they bring out they bake fresh Every time they bring it and my wife loves bread so they even brought her a second round
