Luke's Lobster Newport — Restaurant in Newport

Had a hankering Sunday evening for an elite Lobstah Roll while in Newport, RI so I did a lil internet searching and Luke's was consistently at the top of the list. Checked out their menu online and saw they offered a Lobster Roll flight! SOLD! Off I went to find parking and get an order ASAP. Found Luke's on the corner on the Wharf and got to ordering with a quickness. Lobster Roll Sampler with three 2 oz half-rolls: lemon butter, spicy honey butter, and truffle butter w/ chips and a soft drink. Choice of Sea Salt or Sea Salt and Vinegar Kettle Chips, and choice of beverage. I got the Sea Salt and Vinegar (duh) and Blueberry Lemonade in a glass bottle. The lobster in their rolls comes cold, but for a $1 upcharge, you can get it warm, which is my preference. I also got an affordably priced Poppy Seed Slaw. Folks - these Lobster Rolls deserve top billing on "Best Of" lists. My fav might have been the truffle butter lobster roll. It adds something I never knew a lobster roll was missing, but they were all delectable. The roll makes the roll, though. Buttery sourdough with the perfect thin layer of crisp. All flavors were well-balanced and left me wanting more, even though it was plenty food to make a satisfying meal with maybe/maybe not room for dessert. I honestly didn't get any dessert nearby because I didn't want to lose the taste of what I just had! The Poppy Slaw was different, but in a good, not-too-different way. It was a little on the dryer side for my liking, but I liked it just the same. I am sorry to other local Lobster Roll vendors because I don't think I'll try anywhere new on my next visit. It'll be Luke's, no doubt. I might even make a special trip just for the rolls sooner rather than later, but that time I will try the...

I have lived in New England and Rhode Island specifically my whole life at 55 years old I happen to be down in Bowen wharf doing some work. I saw a little takeout window that said Luke’s lobster. I decided to try my luck. I think I have had lobster rolls from every place in Rhode Island that serves them. Can I just say this was not only the best lobster roll I had ever had. It was right up there with the best thing I had ever eaten. If you enjoy a lobster roll there are a few things that will turn you off immediately tough meat, pieces of shell, And a crappy roll. This lobster roll was filled, but not overfilled with the most tender flesh lobster I had ever eaten very lightly coated with a buttery mayonnaise, almost unable, but added a great flavor. The roll was freshly grilled to perfection. Not one single piece of lobster shell and I was able to delicately eat it standing up and not making a mess. It was absolutely divine. I highly recommend grabbing the 4 ounce lobster roll And sitting on or at their little tables or even take it on the go and walk around Bowen wharf it is absolutely the most decadent lobster roll. I have ever eaten. PS I’ve been there three times since. So Fresh and prepared so well no toothpick required. If you come to Newport, you...

As we were figuring out where we can eat in the area on a busy Friday evening without reservations in a highly rated restaurant, Luke’s Lobster came up on a google map. After reading all the reviews i got interested and we decided to trade our wishful thinking of having a fancy dinner in to just getting the lobster rolls from this place for to go. And it didn’t disappoint!!!

The lobster rolls were amazing, the portions were great, and the price ($40 for each oder that you see on the pictures) was reasonable. The Flight and the Mainer comes with a bag of chips and a drink which was a nice addition. I recommend trying the lemonade on one of my pictures. I typically drink nothing but water but this lemonade was very light and yummy.

As we were like “oh, where are we going to sit down to eat these rolls”, the staff pointed to a few tables with umbrellas that they have for customers. Perfect service, perfect food, quick and satisfying! Great job, Luke’s...
