I was looking for something a little different this year to give to my employees as a Christmas gift. I checked out more than a few lobster sites, and decided to give this Capt. Tim guy a shot. He's the same guy on that Discovery Channel lobster show! Boy, am I glad I did! My employees were Thrilled! We sent lobsters, surf & turfs, and clam chowder! Not only were the prices more than fair, the seafood was Great! I don't know how they make those stuffed shrimp, but I have to tell you, they were terrific, and the lobsters and chowder got me and the wife a lot of thank you notes from our employees as well! The lobsterguy is a first class company, and we will be back, probably BEFORE Christmas! great job A++
Steven P, Dallas, TX
We were so speechless with how easy and amazing the ordering, shipping and of course the lobsters were, no one said a word through the entire dinner! We didn't want to miss a single bite!!! I believe this was the BEST Live Lobster order I have made online! Now I know why these guys are THE Best in the business!!
Carl in D.C.
I have used the Lobster Guy to ship lobster to my daughter (who has lived in, Pittsburgh and San Francisco) a number of times. The product and the Customer Service have been superb. I always recommend them whenever I can. I'll be back excellent! excellent! excellent.
Dave
Capt. Tim & Crew, I recently ordered from you for the first time having found your website through Google. Boy, am I glad I did! I got the Captains Pack of 4 1 1/2 lb live Maine lobsters shipping included!! It arrived on time with the lobsters kicking and in no time at all I was feasting on delicious Maine lobster in California for less than a trip to a restaurant would have been. I grew up in New England and my Dad and I dropped pots for personal consumption and caught lobsters all through my childhood and these were as good as any of those were! Thanks again for the incredible value, the speedy delivery and the freshest product around, I will never order lobster again in a restaurant here, Californians don't know anything about real Maine lobster, you will have my business for life. Sincerely, Eric B. West Sacramento,
CA
Great, fresh product (both Lobsters and fish) and very nice service!
Captain Tim and Crew, My wife and I had an absolutely wonderful Valentine dinner thanks to your Traditional New England Clam Bake. The order arrived on time and fresh as promised. Having such a feast in the middle of the winter in Montana was a real treat.
Brad and Jacqueline B.
I ordered and received the two 3 pound LIVE lobstas right on schedule! I've never seen a three pound lobster and was shocked to see how big three pounds of lobtas really were. I ordered them for Valentine's day and they were a great surprise for my wife. I was so amazed by the size I had to take pictures. I took a picture of one of the lobtas on a turkey platter, and the lobsta filled the platter. I took the picture to work, and to let you know you'll be getting a lot of business from my fellow employees! I will be doing business with you in the future. Thanks again for providing the LOBSTAS that produced the BEST Valentine's day (any day) meal my wife and I ever had. Keep on trapping!
My wife ordered your February special for my birthday dinner and I want to tell you how much I enjoyed it. I was amazed to see these two monsters come out of that box! When we sat down to eat?????? FORGET ABOUT IT!! I've ordered live maine bugs before, but never had they tasted so good! Succulent, tender and so sweet. PERFECT! My 3 year old son absolutely loved the fact that they were alive! It was a night that I will not soon forget. What a great experience and I am grateful that you all were a part of it. Thank you so much! I truly can't wait for the next special occasion (are Thursday's special?)!! An ecstatic lobster lover,
Matt P in Sacramento, CA
I reviewed a few of the other companies-decided to go with Capt. Tim and the lobsterguy after I called to verify delivery. The recipients were ecstatic (Boston to Florida) on Valentines' week-end and the price was the best to boot! Thank you for some of the best lobsters we have had in 30 years! We were hoping to have a special dinner for a great friend and you made it spectacular. It's obvious that you treat your lobsters and customers with tender, loving care...the personal thank-you note from Shannon was an unexpected treat...a lovely old-fashioned courtesy not often found today! We will definitely spread the word! Our thanks to everyone at The Lobster Guy
Vince and Susan
Hey Lobsterguy! Looking forward to our next order! We are crawfish farmers, and we like to tease people that some are the size of small lobsters!! We're telling people about your site!! . ..You have become a family tradition ever since our in-laws sent us some lobsters from you!
Aaron C

Looking forward to doing business with you again soon.
Rosanne
Hi Mr Lobster Guy, I recently sent an order to Lafayette, CA for a thank you gift for some friends. I thought you might like to hear some feedback! They said the lobsters were great, the shrimp and clams VERY FRESH and the lobster bisque the very best they had ever tasted. I am happy that I chose you to do this order for me and will be happy to recommend your company to all. Thanks for a job well done,
Jean in Nashua, NH
Hi, My son moved to Florida and said he cannot find any good seafood down there, it's all warm water, which has a different taste. I found your website about 8 months or so ago and have sent your lobsters to my son. He loves it!!! And am still doing so now. I also sent it to my mom with clam chowder, lobster bisque, who lives right here in New England, but doesn't get out much. She was so happy with your lobsters and chowders I am going to make this an annual thing for her. Thank You! You have a great fresh product, I will definitely spread the word!!! Thank You
Karen R.
You guys are amazing! Teleported my lobsters from New England to God-Forsaken-Rural-Illinois in under 18 hrs.!!!!! My sister called to say how much she LOVED the gift and we win the coolest birthday gift prize! Thank you and consider me a loyal customer!
Kathleen
THE LOBSTERS ARRIVED ON TIME VERY MUCH ALIVE. THE LOBSTER GUYS PRICE BEAT ANYTHING ELSE I COULD FIND. THERE SIZE WAS EXACTLY WHAT I ORDERED AND IF ANYTHING ALITTLE LARGER. THERE WAS NOTE FROM THE PERSON THAT PACKED THEM PLUS THANK YOU NOTE FROM THE LOBSTER GUY. IT WAS A PLEASURE DOING BUSINESS WITH THEM AND I DEFINITELY WILL ORDER FROM THEM IN THE FUTURE!
The bottom line in a live lobster purchase is the quality of the lobsters and these folks really deliver phenomenal lobsters. We ordered nine 2.75 - 3 lb. lobsters and they arrived expertly packed in a sturdy Styrofoam container, and, most importantly, all alive. These folks are very personable and are quick to answer emails and accommodate special requests. Prices of lobsters fluctuate with demand and we have found that these folks offer the best prices, even when you factor in the shipping costs. For the true lobster lover, the Lobster Guy is a must!
I have been ordering from Lobster Guy for 4 years now! Every order is on time and arrives as stated. The prices are very good and the product is always fresh. I would highly recommend you try this merchant. I usually order larger lobsters and the prices here are great. I ordered pre shelled lobster meat this past time and was very impressed with what I got. Lots of tail meat and claw meat.
Mark M.
We ordered several items off of your menu for our Christmas Dinner this year, and everything was so wonderfully delicious. The clam chowder was the best anyone in my family had ever tasted, it was extraordinary! The packaging was so professional, and the included personal handwritten card was such a nice touch! The whole process was so easy from start to finish! I even had a few questions prior to ordering, and I always received such a quick response! The prices are very reasonable as well! We will be lifelong customers! Thank you again for everything! :)
Jordan, Virginia
Just wanted to write and let you know how pleased my Mom was when she received her lobsters and chowder this week. My Mom is a very fussy person ordinarily but she had only good things to say about your products and how they were packaged. The chowder and lobsters were fresh and tasted great. She was very happy. Thank you so much, I often find it hard choosing just the right gift for her but this year I hit the nail on the head and I have you to thank. I will be ordering from you in the future.
Donna W., Salem, MA
Just to let someone know that there is really actual human beings out there with small business that actually care, my wife and I really enjoyed your personal touch and attention when we ordered the lobster from you guys. The personal card and the attention of the delivery was really something. She really loved it and so did I. You guy's made my wife's 50th birthday a success! Feel free to post this email on your web site as proof that there are still small companies here in America that want to earn people's business. This is a rarity that should not go un-noticed! Thanks again.
Jeff & Marie, Atlanta GA......
The outstanding level of quality of products and customer service are the reason that I am a repeat customer. I purchase from the Lobster Guy for my own use and also use him for a fantastic gift source for friends and family. The lobster meat and the scallops are the best you can get on the net (no pun intended).I vacation in Maine every summer, and the Lobster Guy lets me have the fresh seafood that I love all year round. I purchase many things using the internet. .. the Lobster Guy is my favorite place to shop.
John F., Marlborough, M.A.
The staff was VERY helpful! They even called to check my order which I hadn't filled out correctly! I purchased a gift certificate. My niece said that the gift certificate was easy to redeem and everyone there was polite and helpful. The lobster arrived safely and tasted delicious. I plan to do business with the Lobster Guy later this month. Bookmark his site. Many thanks.
Anne, Stockton, C.A.
Dear Lobster Guy, Thank you so much for sending our delicious lobsters for our 31st wedding anniversary. The card was an especially nice touch. I will definitely order again, you are the greatest.
Laurie G
This is the second time I've ordered from the Lobster Guy and I am not disappointed. There is a large selection of seafood and the prices are extremely reasonable compared to other vendors. I will do business again and again.
Sharon H., Tewksbury, M.A.
I was very pleased with the personal service! The enclosed card was a nice touch. The Lobsters were packed well and very alive! I will be ordering again in October for the next visit to Florida as it is a yearly tradition so you will have all my repeat business! Thanks again!
Susan. L, Lake City, F.L.
Dear Lobster Guy, Today I received two four-pound lobsters and they arrived in perfect condition (and right on time! ).These big guys looked gorgeous and were certainly fresh --- fresh as in not old and fresh as in feisty! I have never bought a live lobster locally that had any energy at all. We steamed them and the meat (lots and lots! ) was tender, sweet and to-die-for delicious! I have saved the shells as tomorrow they are going into the pot to make fish stock! I have ordered from you in the past and EVERY order has been a success! Thank you!
Cindy B., Tulsa, OK
I am impressed!! Everything went as advertised. Delivery was on time. Lobsters were alive and AWESOME!!!! The Lobster Guy is the BEST!!!!
Steve M., Clovis, C.A.
Captain TIM, I just wanted to let you know that the lobster that you sent me was wonderful. It was worth the wait. I have a friend who goes to Maine a lot and has to eat Lobster for breakfast, lunch and dinner and said that was the best tasting lobster that she has ever tasted. Thank you for the cooking instructions and for providing such excellent food and service.. I certainly will spread the word around upstate NY about my experience with your company...... Thank you again!
Patricia B., Camillus, N.Y.
Born and raised on Cape Cod. Have family still there but I've been in Florida for 30 years. I received a clambake for two yesterday as a Christmas gift. GREAT is not worthy, OUTSTANDING is more appropriate. Lobsters tried to climb out of the pot!!! You can be sure I will recommend you to others and order more. Thanks for the great product
Richard L., Lake Worth, FL
I would definitely order from The Lobster Guy again. The only little issue that would have made my purchase that much better is that I did not know that there was a specific time that I had to order by for my purchase to be delivered at the time I wanted. It worked out perfectly though, and someone got right back to me when I inquired. (I was pleasantly surprised, you do not receive customer service like that anymore! ) The order was delivered and the recipients told me that it was delicious.
Laura B., Davie, F.L.
Captain Tim and Leah were wonderful to work with! Our clambakes, two for eight people, were delivered on time by UPS packed securely in dry ice. They were removed from packaging, put on a propane cooker, and left to steam. We were able to enjoy time with our guests while everything cooked and when we opened the tins everything was perfect. The lobster and clams were very fresh and had a wonderful taste. The corn and red potatoes were plentiful. Oh, included of course, were bibs, crackers, and wet naps for everyone all you have to do is add melted butter. Great idea and value for your $$$$.
Annette B., Murfreesboro, T.N.
I sent the romantic dinner to my parents for their 25th wedding anniversary. They were thrilled and delighted. I was very thankful that the delivery went off without a hitch and the product was of excellent quality and a very very generous quantity! Thank you LobsterGuy.com. My parents will never forget it. Thank you again LobsterGuy - You Rock!!!!!
Kelly, WA
My husband and I lived in New England most of our lives where lobster is readily available. But we very rarely bothered to purchase it. We now live in Florida where large lobsters are impossible to obtain. Since dealing with The Lobster Guy, we have eaten more lobster in the past year than we ever ate the entire time living in New England. We love the experience of making baked stuffed lobster at home. And the employees at The Lobster Guy have always made us feel we are special customers.
Donna, FL
Captain Tim & Staff, I placed an order last Wednesday for delivery on Friday, November 12. I received my order around noon. The lobsters were FANTASTIC... I cannot express to you how pleased I was about the ordering process from beginning to end. The lobsters were GORGEOUS and the taste was INCREDIBLE!! My husband is a hard sell when it comes to purchases/value, etc. He ranted and raved at what a terrific deal it was, and how professional the packaging(card - handwritten)was. We will be return customers.
Claudia K., Seattle, WA
Everything was great! I loved it.
Leonard, D., NJ
You guys have the best clam chowder in the world. I'll be ordering regularly.
Barry T.,OK
Capt. Tim: the Texans love the lobster but we have to teach them about live lobsters. As usual I got rave reviews on your lobsters.
Dave F., Newport, RI
Hi, Received my order today and enjoyed it tonight. It was great.
John S., GA
Thanks for your great service.
Martin S., NJ
Very, very fair pricing. Thank You!
Michael D. Millis, MA
Very impressed with the quality of the lobsters and the soup. I had it sent as a birthday party gift for my mother-in-law and she said she had never had better seafood. The chowder and bisque were outstanding.
Roger P., TX
This was probably THE BEST experience I have ever had with an on line merchant. The site was not only well designed, but the courtesy and OVERACHIEVEMENT of the owners makes them a one of a kind operation. Not to mention their prices are the best I've seen anywhere. Keep up the good work...you've got my vote. Two claws up!!! ,
Edward M., Port Orchard, WA
Easy to use, "user friendly", price more than competitive.
Holly M., FL
Great site...And easy ordering!
Mark S., MA
Absolutely outstanding. I can't say enough about your low prices and great quality...I'll order again
Mike S., Clemson, SC
Tim, We thoroughly enjoyed the clambake for 6. Not only was the food delicious, but it was a lot of fun. Six future customers,
Shannon G., ND
Many thanks and I appreciate your responsiveness and look forward to doing future business with you. I had no clue that lobster was available at such a terrific price.
Steve L., San Francisco, CA
Captain Tim: Thank you SO much for an EXCELLENT birthday gift for my Dad. He is a gourmet cook and absolutely LOVED the clambake. He told us all about how the clambake was delivered, the packaging, the instructions (I am absolutely sure that my Dad stood in front of the pot the entire time it took for steam to come out, and dutifully made sure he reduced it to "wisps of steam.") He said it was the best meal he's had in some time. My mom loved it too, and she's picky about her seafood...It is clear from the packaging, the handling, your attention to detail to send us an email to let us know the airbill, etc., that you've got a top notch company. In this day and age, good service is hard to find, and is extremely appreciated. We will definitely have more orders for other members of our family and friends. I can't think of a better gift! By the way, excellent web site! Keep it up! Finally, thanks for making my Dad's 65th birthday a memorable one! P.S. Extra special thanks to Jennifer for her help. Our Warmest Regards,
Jackie and Jeff A., Virginia Beach, VA
Just wanted to let you know how much we enjoyed our clambake. My wife surprised me with a huge clambake for my 45th birthday. I'm from New England - now in Seattle - so dearly love and miss the old fashioned bakes. We ate until we could eat no more. Everything was so good and the quality was tops. This birthday will go down as truly fantastic thanks to TheLobsterguy.Com. (We're already thinking about the next special occasion for a bake). Sincerely,
Russ and Elaine, Seattle, WA
The lobster bake was a very unique birthday gift for my Mom and arrived right on time. She thought the personal cards were a real sweet touch. My parents said that the lobsters were scrumptious, I wouldn't know because they didn't even save me a bite. Thanks Lobster Guy.
Amy S., Bloomsburg, PA
The clambake was excellent and we savored every bite, being a land-locked New Englander, I especially enjoyed it, the flounder was delicious! You can be sure that we will order from you in the future, Thanks again and take care,
Sara M., Knightstown, Indiana
I would also like to tell you again that you guys are the best. The party this is for a birthday party for someone who grew up in Maine. I check 16 companies over the internet, and your combos and prices just cannot be beat. You're saving me a heck of a lot of work, and guaranteeing a smile on everyone's face. Thanks again.
Mike S., Van Nuys, CA
Excellent service, quality products, excellent value.
Ray F., Jacksonville, FL
I am really impressed with TheLobsterGuy! The service was quick, personalized, and exactly as represented. The prices were the best on the internet and the service was even better. Thanks a bunch!
Van V., California
The Lobster dinner arrived as promised. My parents were very appreciative. The Lobsters were still kicking when they arrived and tasted great. Thank you very much.
Jackie G., Alaska
Nice user friendly site. Easy to understand and use; aesthetically pleasing front end.
Eldridge W., Vero Beach FL
Everything arrived in excellent condition. They look great. Thanks so much.
Ray F. Jacksonville, FL
The clambake was a great success - a true treat for the individual in our party who had never experienced a clambake before. It came as close to the real thing as I think possible in a mail - order meal. The lobsters were still feisty even after waiting a day before steaming them. The chowder was also a hit. I "researched" several companies who ship clambakes and none had as much for the price. I appreciated the personal touches (hand written notes with the order and a confirmation call the day I received the shipment ). I can highly recommend this business and will do business with LobsterGuy.com again.
Deborah M., Katy, TX
Hi Tim, The lobster for my fiance's birthday dinner was a big hit! It was so much lobster we ended up using the leftovers for a lobster pizza.
Gina M., CA
Dear Captain Tim, Just a note to say thank you for helping to make our Lobster Fest a huge success! Our lobsters arrived, live and kicking, on the day we needed them. We prepared a fabulous seaside dinner for 10 that included steamers, seafood chowder, grilled lobsters, roasted corn and potatoes and grilled veggies. Everything was delicious, but the LOBSTERS were the "Maine" Event! Our guests were so impressed by the fact that the lobsters had been flown live from the East Coast all the way to California! They were very sweet and delicious! (The Lobsters, not our guests! ) Thank you again for your great product and great customer service! We will certainly recommend you to our friends and look forward to ordering from you again! Your Friends in Fresno California,
Miss Patti and Roger
Hi Tim, I received the clambake today and my wife and I completely enjoyed it. It was simply delicious. Everything was so fresh and easy to cook. We are happy to have found your website and you can look for me to continue ordering from you. Again thank you and I have no problem recommending you to my friends in Georgia who long for old fashion New England Clambakes. Regards,
John S., Marietta, GA
I just want to comment about how wonderful the service was -- not to mention the lobsters! With Lobsterguy.com I will never be at a loss for a gift idea for an anniversary, birthday, or special occasion again. Everybody loves live lobster and with the internet service I can order from anywhere. You can bet that all the people in my life will benefit greatly from your unique idea. I am sold on Lobsterguy.com!
Rob G., Montgomery, AL
Dear Tim: I just wanted to take time to thank you for the excellent service with my recent seafood order. The lobsters and the bisque were great! I really enjoyed shopping with you. Thanks so much!
Andrew M. Clarksville, TN
Capt. Tim, WOW! The lobster clambake is quite a feast! It was the perfect surprise for my wife on our anniversary. We very much appreciate the personal touch, as well as the outstanding food. The quality was unmatched, and the price the lowest we have seen. Thanks again, we'll be back!
R&K Lane, Phoenix, AZ
Everything was terrific!! Thanks a lot. I've bookmarked your web site for future use!
The Brown's
Dear Capt. Tim: Just a quick note to tell you how thoroughly pleased we were w/ your service and seafood! Living in Western NC it is difficult to obtain the fresh seafood I was accustomed to growing up along the Jersey Shore! I was really looking forward to eating the steamers....I haven't had them for at least five years...and they were just terrific! I really appreciated the hand-written note enclosed w/ the order...what a very special touch! Thank you again! You can be sure we will order from "The Lobster Guy" in the very near future. Sincerely,
Rose & Bill G., NC
Very efficient and easy to follow procedure
Andrew M., Atlanta, GA
Your site is great!! Convenient and economical!!!
Michelle B., Portsmouth, RI
A great site!
Amy S., Concord, MA
Hi! I just received a phone call from my VERY excited in-laws to whom we had your lobsters sent. They LOVED them! This was a part of my father-in-laws'80th birthday present. You made it special for us. This is a great service. We will be looking forward to using your services in the future. Thanks again.
Sue S., Irving, CA
Dear Tim, Thanks very much for the Bake. It was great fun to hear my friends from SC whispering to one another that "this Yankee corn is pretty good and the shellfish is excellent!" It was quite a successful dinner. I think you've got a great product going and hope to repeat the order once another occasion presents itself.
Brett S., Charleston, SC
You are a lifesaver! Since Les has just about everything he needs, we were at a loss to figure out what we should give him for his birthday. These lobsters will be great.
Robert S., Irvin, CA
This is a very good site. Easy to use and informative.
Patti & Roger H., Fresno, CA
Tim, Thank you for doing such a great job with my dad's gift order. He received it by 12pm on Wednesday. Everything was there and in great shape. My Dad was very impressed with the personal touches you added, like a real card and the personalized note with the cooking instructions. My parents were impressed with how much food and how delicious it was. This was probably the best birthday present I have ever gotten him. I will certainly pass your website along to my friends and come back again. Thank you for the prompt, friendly, and personal service. Sincerely,
Maureen Courtney-John, Albany, NY
Captain Tim, I know that the order made it to my sister - she paged me when it arrived and when I called back she already had it on the stove steaming! She was very pleased and she appreciated your card as well. Thank you for your help with this - it really made a special day for her.
Craig H., New Orleans
LobsterGuy, Your lobster was a huge treat for my weekend plans. I look forward to placing an order for the 4th of July. I was pleased with service. Thanks for the goods.
Matt
Dear Lobsterguy, The lobsters you sent were magnificent. They arrived in perfect condition. We prepared them as you suggested and we ended up with a feast fit for a king. Thanks again for the great service and we look forward to future treats. Sincerely,
E. C. Sharpe MGen (Ret), USAF
Capt. Tim, Thank you very much for the personal attention you took with my order. My wife loved the lobsters...what a hit! Thanks for putting a Birthday card along with the order (she loved it). I'll definitely be ordering again.
Rob G, Louisville, KY
Great site! I love the fact you can see your price as you go.
Matt W., Minnesota
Captain Tim, Your web site is great and the lobster is even better. I have recommended you to all my friends. The quality of the seafood is terrific and the service has been outstanding. I really like the variety of seafood you offer and the convenience can't be beat. Keep up the good work.
PK, San Antonio, TX
WWW.TheLobsterGuy.com, We will definitely order from you again. I've searched everywhere on the web for live lobsters and no one can beat your prices (including shipping). Your fax system works great. You've met all of my needs.
Calvin M., Las Vegas
Hello, I moved from New England 3 years ago and have finally found the place to buy live lobsters. My friends and family thank you.
Tim J., Monterrey, CA
Thanks for thinking about the consumer. You have the best prices I could find for lobsters. You're the best.
