Description

The origins of the Old Port Lobster Shack actually arose serendipitously through a fated meeting resulting from a bumped plane ride. Paul Blatt, a friend of the Old Port Lobster Shack's owner, Russell Deutsch, sat next to a woman named Lynn Brown on a plane ride to Washington D.C. The Moretwo hit it off and exchanged numbers. That night, when Paul got home, he called Russell and told him "I just met your future wife.

  • Rating: 3.0 out of 5"by Hector F. at Yelp User Review2/3/2013Not a every day lunch place unless your work at Facebook and don't mind spending over $40+ for 2 people. Food is yummm but over price. The lobster rolls and the chowdah is always really good. Their sourdough bread bowl is a must for 1st timers. Read full review
  • Rating: 3.0 out of 5"by Kevin W. at Yelp User Review2/2/2013This is a cool place. I got a Maine Lobster Roll and blueberry cobbler. The cobbler was perfect. It had real fruit, none of that jam nonsense, and it was not too sweet. The lobster roll wasn't that big but it was tasty.

I would make the drive to Redwood city just for their clam … Read full review
  • Rating: 5.0 out of 5"by Nick J. at Yelp User Review2/1/2013Absolutely fantastic lobster rolls! And considering what you get, I feel very reasonably priced! Have had lobster rolls many other places in the bay area that weren't half as good, for much more money! Great lobster bisque, chowder and clams too! Love OPLS!! Wish they would open more locations!

  • Rating: 3.0 out of 5"by A L. at Yelp User Review1/31/2013Friendly business, about $20 for a naked lobster roll. Nice chunks of lobster, toasted bread, drawn butter... what more do you need? I will however say that I'm not a huge fan of the cole slaw. Mine was somehow a bit limp and warm. Fries were good, though. Still, let's be honest, you're there for the lobster! Read full review
