Best Lobster in Westchester??

I'm looking for a place to do a mid-week family farewell dinner for my college-bound son whose favorite food is lobster. He loves the Greenwich Lobster House but my husband and I really don't care for the food there. We are willing to go to a more $$ restaurant as this is a special occasion...I'd appreciate any suggestions within reasonable distance of Rye.

    I'm veg but if I ever fall off the wagon, it would be for lobster.
    I hear that Gus's Franklin Park in Harrison has a good lobster dinner.

      Agree the big steak houses have a nice lobster but usually start at 3 lbs. F.I.S.H. is a wonderful seafooder, but don't recall lobster on the menu. Stay away from Legal in WP, not even close to the Beantown originals.

          We had a very positive experience at Day Boat Cafe in Irvington.

            Sorry, I tried it when it first opened. It was overpriced and pretty poor. But that is just my opinion.
