The Best Lobster Rolls In NYC, Ranked

"Grand Banks is a restaurant on a boat, which is a perfectly appropriate place to eat a lobster roll. A buttered and griddled potato bun is stuffed with a generous amount of lobster salad—the mixture is pretty creamy and well-salted, and has little chunks of fennel instead of the typical pieces of chopped celery. The most unique ingredient is an emulsion made from dulse, which is a type of red seaweed. Note that you only get a handful of greens on the side, and if you want fries, they're extra." - willa moore, bryan kim, molly fitzpatrick, neha talreja
