The fish dinner was good. French fries on all the orders were excellent.
But the lobster rolls..... there were no discernable pieces of lobster on either of the 2 lobster rolls that were brought to the table. No claw meat and no tail meat. If I guessed that they were 90% leg meat, I think it would be an underestimate. So, as such, they were dry and quite stringy. Was I supposed to ask for drawn butter? I had previously never seen so much lobster leg meat on one place before. After 2 bites, I passed the remainder to my better half in trade for some of her fish. It wasn't a good trade for her.
We were all quite disappointed to say the least.
I'm not looking to flame anybody or any establishment. The opinions expressed are just that...opinions. If you agree with me, fine. If you don't then rather than flame me for my opinion. let's just respectfully agree to disagree about my opinion.
The Phantom Gourmand rates WP's lobster roll a 3 (out of a possible 10).
WP's lobster roll is not on the Phantom Gourmand's recommended list.

I have ten or more lobster rolls from Waldo-Peppers each year for each of the last three years. What you have described as your lobster roll simply is not what Waldo-Peppers serves. This makes no sense to me. Waldo-Peppers have many fairly large chunks of claw and tail meat in every lobster roll I have purchased from them. Waldo-Peppers quality is totally consistent.
