Environment: 4/5It is a very “slim” but long hipster place...which is only for young people with good spinal cords because most of the chairs are bar chairs without back supports. There are only two real tables allowing you and your friends to chat face-to-face. If you are not lucky or early enough to get those real tables - you need to sit side-to-side with your friends, facing a rough, factory-style concrete wall.

There are only two real tables allowing you and your friends to chat face-to-face. If you are not lucky or early enough to get those real tables - you need to sit side-to-side with your friends, facing a rough, factory-style concrete wall. If you are a little luckier, you can get window bar seats - but ladies have to be aware of their dresses.
Food:
My friends and I shared two rolls - lobster and crab - which the fillings were wrapped with the same type of bread. Speaking of the buns which wrapped fillings, they warm, and amazingly crispy and thin.
Upon request, the bun could be cut into two halves.
Lobster Roll $138 - 3/5

Drizzled with (too much) lemon butter and (overly) favored with spices, the freshness(or the taste) of juicy lobster was covered a big time - the original taste of lobster couldn't be found until I had chewed four to five bites. But the texture of the lobster told me that it was fresh and lovely - just that my taste bud couldn't tell.
Crab Roll $118 - 5/5

Like most of the critics say, crab roll is a lot better than the lobster roll. Topped above the crispy warm bun was the creamy and juicy crab melt. To me, it was more like a salad mixture without vegetable. This time, the taste of crab wasn't covered by all sort of favours - but complemented just well by all sort of ...fatty...creamy...sauce.
Earl Grey tea : $20 - 5/5
I didn’t really pay attention to the brand of tea bags used but speaking of the quality and the price - I, as a tea lover, liked it.
Service:
You need to pay first at the cashier but then they will send the food to your table.
Waiting time:
I didn't have to wait when I entered the place at 12:40 on a Thursday. So it is also a good place for hipster colleagues gathering.
Verdict:
For first timers, just grab a friend with you and share two buns of two favours so that you will know what you like. But personally, I love the crab roll more although "Lobster Central" is its name.
