Some of the best lobster restaurants in Maine are right here in the southern seacoast region.
You can't throw a rock around here without hitting a place that either catches lobster, sells lobster or serves lobster.
For the best lobster that's pure and simple, you can always have it boiled or steamed with drawn butter.
For a dish a little less simple, you could try something like the Yorkshire Lobster Supreme at the York Harbor Inn (Maine lobsters filled with native shrimp, crabmeat and tender sea scallops, topped with their famous thermidor sauce)or....
wait for it....
the lobster truffle purses at Frankie & Johnny's on Route 1 in Cape Neddick.
Lobster truffle purses! I like saying "lobster truffle purses", and I love eating them! They're delicate little wontons stuffed with fresh Maine lobster, mascarpone cheese, and truffled butter, and baked until crisp. Yum!
For the best lobster breakfast, we've got lobster Benedict, lobster omelets, or lobster pizza for brunch.
Those are just a few of the ways you'll find us cooking up lobster here in York. You'll find them, in one delicious form or another, on the menu of almost all our southern Maine restaurants.
