You can get lobster rolls in many places on the east coast, but Connecticut’s hot lobster rolls are arguably the best anywhere. While many restaurants in our fine state offer up some seriously delicious rolls, here’s one that serves up the best.
Lenny and Joe opened a roadside clam stand in 1979 with just four picnic tables. Now Lenny & Joe’s Fish Tale has three restaurants in Connecticut.

The patio at the Madison location fills up during summer months - it’s Connecticut’s largest outdoor fresh seafood picnic!

Lenny & Joe’s Fish Tale serves fish, fried clams, shrimp and oysters…but the hot lobster roll is the star of the show.

They definitely don’t skimp on the lobster meat here, and they don’t use any filler. This roll is just stuffed to the brim with 100%, tender lobster meat.

The lobster roll is served hot, on a buttered hot dog bun. Get it with a side of fries or cole slaw.
