Homer Lobster - Beaugrenelle — Restaurant in Paris

What a nice surprise Homer Lobster is! I read reviews on Yelp and walked by repeatedly while on vacation in Paris, stopping today for a lobster roll. I speak very little French which I said and was asked if English was ok? Not at all expected but very kind.

Service was very friendly and helpful as there are many sandwich options. Based on guidance, I selected the Connecticut roll with a light lemon butter sauce and spices that tasted like Old Bay, served on a soft, warm brioche roll. Scrumptious! I was told that they won a best of award at a lobster roll competition in the US. I can see why! Multiple sides are offered and I selected the salad of cabbage & carrots-nice compliment to the sandwich. My order was a take away, so that I could enjoy outside on a sunny October day. Give this place a try if you need a quick, yummy meal to eat in...

My wife and I walked past the restaurant and were intrigued by the prize-winning lobster rolls, so we walked in. We were greeted by Hugo, who told us the story about Homer and the rolls. We decided to try one and were blown away by how tasty it was. In fact, we were so impressed that we went over the menu again and ordered the tuna melt roll. We had the standard lobster roll with avocado. The ingredients were super fresh, and the roll was made in-house. It is a bit on the pricey side if you want lobster, but they have plenty of options if you're looking for a tasty lunch or dinner that doesn't break the bank. I definitely recommend it if you're...

Disappointing Experience – Not Worth the Price

I had high expectations, but unfortunately, the lobster and shrimp rolls were very underwhelming. For the price, I expected something much more flavorful and fresh. The bread was dry, and the overwhelming taste was just… bread. There was barely any filling – halfway through, the roll was practically empty.

What surprised me even more was the food preparation. Everything was stored in plastic Tupperware, and the sandwiches were assembled in under 3 minutes, which made it feel rushed and far from a premium experience.

Honestly, I could have made a better version at home. Not worth the hype...
