Lobster Lab Restaurant — Restaurant in Busan

Went here as a group of three. The place is small and already had a group of eight or nine plus another couple, so at first I thought service would be a nightmare — especially when it turned out the one person running around was also the chef. To our surprise, she handled it all like a pro: fast, efficient, and friendly.

Food came out quickly and was excellent. We started with a lobster mac and cheese, which was spot on — not too heavy, just really tasty. The seafood platter was the highlight: lobster straight from the tank, steamed mussels and shrimp, plus garlic butter shrimp on the side. The honey-glazed pork ribs were also a hit, adding a proper surf-and-turf touch. We finished with a spicy lobster noodle soup and a lobster chowder, both full of flavour.

There’s a decent selection of wines and champagne (not the cheapest, but worth it). The whole meal with a bottle of wine came to about 300k won, which felt very fair for the quality.

All in all, an awesome meal. Big thanks to the lady boss for a...

Hands down, this was one of the top two meals of my life. I had a pumpkin soup and lobster grilled cheese. It was one of those meals you that after each bite, you had to set the food down and contemplate the amazing flavor of the bite. I’m a fast eater, and it made me take my time.

Service was fine, but they only had one person working and she took our order, made the food, and served. She was great, but it was a little on the slow side, but worth the wait.

I would, hands down, go out of my way if I’m in the Busan to return. It was a wonderful...

A great find. Fresh lobster cooked to order. Boiled and the grilled for a touch of extra flavor. Split and cracked to make it easier to eat. So juicy and tender!!! Buttery rolls and crisp fries were a nice compliment.

The wine list was surprisingly extensive, I wish I had brought a friend. Thankfully they had a half bottle that was still good quality.

A great stop on you seafood...
