Luke's Lobster

Editorial Review

Former banker Luke Holden has the ill lobster hookup thanks to a family-owned shellfish processing plant; crab and shrimp, too. Rolls easily $10 less than at the usual suspects (Pearl, Mary's), though these babies are served by their lonesome. Sliver of a space with only a few counter seats, sandwiched between two branches of massively popular arepa chain Caracas and framed in driftwood. No mayo overloads here, the half rolls are an easy Cheap Eats contender at 4 (shrimp), 5 (crab), and 7 (lobster) smackeroos.
