This restaurant is known for the seafood, so it is no surprise to see a New England style lobster role on the menu. Their small sandwich is filled with cold Maine lobster that is mixed with lemon aïoli mayonnaise, chopped celery, herbs and served on a buttered challah bun.

"We love coming to eat at ‘Daddy's’ restaurant for seafood, owned by my husband, David Lentz."
