  • Luke’s Lobster Pound: Lobster Roll & Bisque

    For the most affordable lobster roll in this city, Luke’s Lobster Pound steps up to the plate and hits a home run. I’m not convinced its anywhere near the epitome of lobster rolls, but it’s darn good! shi’s eating has already covered our visit to Luke’s, but here’s my take on it.
