What People Are Saying About The Lobster Place
Featured Review

In Short – Chelsea Market's waterfall provides an aquatic mood at the sprawling seafood store's entrance. Bright cuts of fish laid over ice and surrounded by greens are joined by ultra-jumbo shrimp, scallops, clams and lump crab meat, pre-seasoned seafood and numerous smoked salmon varieties. Enormous tanks of lobster and a sushi bar surprise at the the back of the shop, and whole steamed lobsters, chowders and seafood salads are ready to take out or eat at surrounding counters.

GREAT STEAMED LOBSTER!!
by theresa35
my boyfriend and I stumbled upon this place visiting the highline park a couple sundays ago, and im glad we did the steamed lobster was resonably priced and i also had the california roll that they offered my boyfriend had the seafood sampler which was lobster and crab rolls delishis...although i wanted some oysters because they looked great I practiced restraint, but i will be back for those oysters, great lil place to eat its a fish market so the seafood is fresh!!
Fresh and First Rate
by ianmac
Nestled in the Chelsea Market, this seafood market has a remarkable selection of the freshest seafood I've seen in Gotham. There's Sushi, prepared foods, and the best #1 Tuna imaginable. With huge lobster tanks in the back, it even smells like the ocean!
- Pros: Reasonable Price, Quality, Service
- Cons: Parking
Sublime Sushi
by susanchenelle_citysearch
Don't let the strong fishy smell chase you away, inside this excellent seafood market you'll find some of the best sushi, freshly made to order by friendly, and highly skilled chefs. The pretty rainbow roll tastes as good as it looks. Their tuna is especially good. Hidden deep within Chelsea Market, it's a great spot to find fresh shrimp, lobster and fish, ready-to-eat or to cook at home.
- Pros: Fresh
- Cons: Fishy smell
