Reservations: reservations@lobsteralive.net • 1 246 435 0305
Lobster Alive started as a wholesale providing lobsters for the hotels and restaurants. They now have both a wholesale operation and a full service restaurant. The Lobsters are the main attraction. The lobster is caught by scuba divers in the nearby Grenadine Islands and flown to Barbados. You can follow the Lobster as they arrive by private sea plane alive and fresh at the beach behind the restaurant. They are taken to the saltwater tank inside the restaurant where you can go into the tank and pick out your own lunch or dinner. This is a million-dollar photo opportunity! If you are not that brave, then have Simone the Lobster Specialist, pick one out for you.
Preparing the Lobster
The lobsters are then prepared for you and served with amazing sides. They use a combination of boiling in saltwater and grilling to prepare the lobsters to perfections. To be honest the lobsters are large enough to share. These are Caribbean Lobsters not Maine Lobsters. The difference is Maine Lobsters have claws and are found in cold water. Caribbean Lobsters are generally larger and do not have claws however the legs can be eaten like Snow Crab legs and the meat is fabulous!
Lobster Alive is a cozy quaint spot with real atmosphere. They feature live jazz an open layout, with a beach deck and tables available in the sand. Check the music schedule and definitely make a reservation to be assured of seating.
I like to have at least one big fancy meal out when I travel. If you are looking for restaurants good for dates, family and friends or business. These are restaurants you will want to try if you are ever in Orlando, Florida; Cozumel, Mexico; San Juan Puerto Rico or Bridgetown, Barbados.
