Lobster Roll 2016 #5

Bills Seafood, Westbrook CT

6/26/16

Bun perfection: big, toasty, lightly buttered.  Meat tasty and abundant. 

Ambience gives summer some justice, band/music playing, crowded deck with fast service.  Clean bathrooms too! Thank you Bill.  

No need to say much more. My summer has now started

Overall: it's early but 8.9

Fresh roll.  Downside- Roll didn't seem to be toasted enough or buttered. Butter to dip in. 

Decent amount of meat for the small roll. The meat seemed to be fresh. Fair price at $16.95.

Not as sweet as I hoped for but it was cooked well.  

Overall: considering the scenery I'll give it a 7.5. 

However the coconut shrimp were delicious with a spicy tangy sweet chili sauce.  I would go back for them.

Close Harbor Seafood

Plainville/Southington, CT

This was a pretty tasty find.  Took our kids to the Southington Drive Inn and got a little hungry while waiting. Took a walk and stumbled on this seafood spot.  Restaurant received 4.5 stars so I figured why not.   Well for a last minute drop by craving fix it fit the bill.  Fries were pretty good.  Meat was decent but it was a little salty.  No need for the butter if the meat is sweet enough.  

Overall, early in the season, going with a 7.0 too much salt.

#2 Lobster & Waffles

Sweet lobster on sweet and tasty cornbread waffle.  I was afraid to try it but so glad I did. It's definitely worth a shot.  I went for the small portion but only because I was eating other items as well.  Will go back for more.

Overall, not an official lobster roll but I give it a sweet 8.0.
