Both Maine and Connecticut styles were awesome. Generous portions of lobster and while I couldn't get it for lunch everyday because it would break the bank , it's an awesome "treat yoself" baller lunch

Pete DeCarolis

Great lobster rolls ; don't skip the whoopie pie or Maine Root fountain soda . Gets the thumbs up from my Portland, ME raised fiancee. Follow their twitter handle to find their truck .

Louis McCoy

The best lobster roll I've had in DC was from this truck - cold lobster , toasted bun . You'll have to do your homework to find them, but totally worth it.

AFAR Media

Their super-fresh lobster rolls are worth the wait. Go either Connecticut-style or Maine-style with a side of New England clam chowder or lobster mac n' cheese . Read more

My favorite DC food truck by a mile. Worth the line and the money. Connecticut-style lobster roll all the way.

Lionel Madiou

Went for the first time today at lunch , oh my god! I had the Connecticut lobster sandwich , so damn good!!

James Sullivan

Oh how I love the food here... everything is top notch from the famous rolls to the phenomenal soups and homemade drinks! Figure out your order early or face the wrath of staff and crowd :)

JastaElf

BEST truck in DC if you are a lobster fan. Great food, nice people, what's not to love?? <3

Alicia G

Yum! Huge hunks of warm, succulent lobster on a buttery toasted roll - the Connecticut-style roll is where it's at! Cash AND credit!

Erika Martinez

Best lobster roll I've ever had. If you're not a mayo fan, get the Connecticut roll . It's sweet buttery heaven. Also try the tasty lemonade !

Lynn Pina

Get it Connecticut style with butter. It really brings out the flavor of the lobster and doesn't overpower the delicate lobster taste.

Nora Livengood

The lobster BLT is to die for. And the mint-ginger limeade is a great deal.

Justin Thorp

A incredible lobster roll . I think they get the lobsters form Maine everyday.

Lianne Farbes

Best Lobster roll I have had in a while - warm toasty bun DELISH!

Alicia Dunn

Going to this popular truck requires a commitment of time and money. It's worth a try at least once, since the lobster is fresh and well-prepared.

Behrad Eats

I got the lobster roll , Maine-style, very delicious but thankfully I got chips as well or else I'd still be hungry, the roll is not that big.

The "Connecticut" lobster roll is by far the best. Hands-down. Read more

Stephen Fraser

Go with the Connecticut style . Best lobster rolls in DC.

Venu

Luke's lobster is superior. Shrimp rolls are arguably better and half the price.

Genevieve Markey

Since you can only get 1 thing go for the lobster roll over the shrimp maine style over connecticut. Black cherry soda or hot cider ! Bon appetit!

Travel + Leisure

Nothing beats this food truck when it’s nearby; try the shrimp roll .

Sarah W.

Cincinnati is the way to go! Maine is also good.

Kevin Gourzis

Matt Syska

Chris Erickson

Maine Style is where it is at.

Madison Levin-Epstein

Looking at these amazing pics that people have taken makes me ravenous :-)

Brent S Gambill

Chowder is the most underrated item on the menu. Whoppie Pie is second.

Allison Kasic

Whoopie pies are lackluster. Stick with a lobster roll and chips .

Jason Rosenberg

Try the Mexi-Cola flavor of the Maine Root soda .

Sarah W.

Connecticut roll is the yummiest
