Default Lobstah Rolls

I am desirous of a decent lobstah roll. Nearest place I can find (I live I in North Villages) is Lena's Seafood in Silver Springs Ocala area. Their original restaurant is in Salisbury MA their Ocala location is open Nov - May so I am hoping they are authentic.

Anyone tried them or have other suggestions?

Lena’s is fabulous. And their fried clams come from Ipswich.

Thanks! Going to try Lena's first cuz they seem to have more authentic New England heritage, but I love downtown Mt Dora as well.

We go to Lena's for the fried clams and fried lobster but I was not impressed with the lobster roll. Lobster rolls are at Glenview Friday lunch time only. They're pretty good. You get one lobster roll and a cup of chowder $14.99.

Thanks! I usually go to Glenview for breakfasts which are pretty good, I will try them and compare to Lena's lobstah rolls.

I am going to try Lena's for sure.

However, the BEST lobster roll in the USA is Red's Eats in Wiscasset, Maine.

If those places don’t do it get on RT 95 and drive about 1600 miles to Rowe’s in Mexico Maine. Now that is a lobster roll.
