The only time they had a 3 pounder is for their birthday promotion connected to their 837 Club. They are running a lobster promotion through the summer though. Its a 5 pound lobster for 2. You get a 5 pounder, 2 sides, 2 salads and coffee for $75. I prefer to get the strip there, but almost everyone in the dining room had chosen the lobster. I tend to enjoy the meal a little better at the West side location--a little less rush, tables spaced out a little better, but you should be able to enjoy a meal at any of the 3.

I also enjoy the gigi salad which should be split between 2 people if you get the surf and turf. Also I like the home fries. I'm more of a Palm 2 guy, but all 3 are wonderful and the waiters are more than helpful if you ask.
