Excellent lobster and seafood rolls in a tiny counter-service shop with swift service, premium pricing, and portions some find small for the cost.
Luke's Lobster Penn Quarter delivers solid food quality with fresh, well-seasoned lobster and friendly, efficient counter service that makes it ideal for quick meals near downtown attractions.
