Best Lobster in town?

I want to celebrate the birthday of my girlfriend in New York. For that I need a good suggestion for a place where we can get a really good lobster. Should not be that fancy like per se and not a fish only place, both are just not my thing.

  1. Francisco Centro Vasco serves really good lobster. Lobster's all I've ever had there, so I can't offer any recommendations for other dishes. It's not really a special occasion place, though, just a neighborhood Spanish restaurant. But it's pretty festive, and I think you'd have a good time.

      Dont stray from the lobster. I have had 5 other dishes ans all were dissappinting.

        Good to know, thanks. (And now the OP probably needs more suggestions!)

        I also had a great lobster at El Quiote. Same type of place as Centro Vasco. It is not expensive and they range from 2-5lbs.
