Blue Claw Lobster Shack

Ordered the ferry crunch roll. Turned out to be more shrimp-forward than lobster, but the flavours were decent. Price seemed a bit high for the value, but it's understandable given the nature of the proteins. Quick service as well.

This restaurant is located in the food court area of “The Well” in Toronto. We ordered 2 Barrington spicy rolls and a seaside roll that cost us about $60. The service was good and efficient. The food tasted really good but the serving size was on the small side. We did have to get something else afterwards as well but it was still a good experience.

Lobster rolls are my all-time favourite food. All my close friends and family know that I'd eat them if they were more affordable and abundant (and with less purine 💀). Hence, I was hyped when I found out that Blue Claw Lobster had new locations in Toronto. I finally got to try them today. Overall, they're good, but nothing stood out. I ordered the Seaside sensational role since it is the cheaper alternative with shrimp/lobster mixed salad instead of the lobster-exclusive rolls (which I really appreciated!), along with an upgraded side of the lobster tots (+6 dollars). In total it was 25.93 including tax. I meant it is a lobster roll after all - I got the price. The roll bread was fantastic—probably the highlight of the meal for me. The lobster/shrimp mix was not bad at all either. It was fresh and delicious. That said, I did not get the chunks of lobster since I think those would not be served in the more premium options (East Coast Classic Roll & Barrington Spicy Roll). The tater tots were overly fried, which I don't mind but I think lots of people would not enjoy them. That said, the combined flavours of sriracha mayo and Pico De Gallo were surprisingly good. I still enjoyed it. The lobster on the tater tots was just some mere shredded meat; it was not very impressive. The service was ok, and the well food court was quite comfortable to eat at. I'll come back to try its Barrington spicy roll, and the burgers. There were also many interesting restaurants in the food court that I wanted to try too! I'm giving 3 stars because I think the Tater Tots upgrade was not worth it, and the food I ordered today was average and not memorable overall. I'll come back and try other options, though.

Decent lobster roll for a reasonable price. Went here with my friends for dinner and ordered the East Coast lobster roll combo for $24 including tax. The lobster roll was honestly a bit small, but it had a pretty decent amount of lobster. It definitely isn't as good as anything I've had in the east coast, but it does the job. The fries were also very standard and tasted like any other potato. Overall, I'd give this place a generous 4 stars because the price is not that bad for what you pay for. If you're in the Well and craving a lobster roll, give this place a shot.

This was my first time trying a lobster roll so take it with a grain of salt. I didn’t enjoy it, I do like lobster but this just tasted like a bun with cold lobster, mayo and lettuce, basically instead of tasting like a cohesive dish it just tasted like the ingredients but put together if that makes sense, for me it just wasn’t particularly tasty. The service was good and we got the order fast. The price is a bit steep because it’s lobster. Again, important for me to emphasize, this was my first time trying a lobster roll so maybe I’m tripping, just putting my opinion out there.

Amazing lobster roll! Incredible quality and 100% fresh ingredients. No filler just great tasting lobster on a delicious buttery toasted bun. Highly recommend and great price for what you get. My new fave 🦞

This review is for the Blue Claw Lobster Shack in the Wellington Market food court. We came here on a Saturday afternoon and there was quite a long line but we still received our orders within 15 mins. We both got East Coast Classic rolls with lobster, and upgraded sides (extra cost) to mac and cheese and truffle fries. The prices are justified for the seafood. The fries were not that crispy and a little soggy, and the mac and cheese was on the bland side. No complaints about the lobster rolls though. Seating was in the food court, and we were able to find a seat without waiting.

Located at the food court at the Well. I tried the chicken burger, the portions were a little smaller but the flavour was packing. I really enjoyed the chicken sandwich, the chicken was crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside. They have multiple options for lobster sandwiches etc.
