Ok, worth the hype. Lobster bisque is life changing and the sausage and shrimp gumbo is firey and delicious.
flavor is amazing and it might look small but a medium size soup feeds well . Cuban black beans and Italian ravioli are my favorite ones. this is the Seinfeld place made with new management and design
Get the lobster bisque ! Most places seem to just drag a lobster claw through the soup for flavor. This has huge chunks of lobster . Yum!
Man this small place can really make a soup .. I tried most there soups when I was there last november and boy was I impressed.. cold weather, hot to go soup .. which I enjoyed at central park .. wow ????
Amazing soups they also offer an Apple and croutons with your soup and some chocolate !!!very tasty!!highly recommended!!!
Lobster roll was great! Didn't have lobster bisque that day so I got crab corn chowder instead. Still good.
The lobster bisque is the best Soup ever! I've been craving for my next soup since the first time I tried it.
Best lunch deal around... $7 for a large soup , bread , piece or fruit and chocolate .
No soup for you! Famous from being on Seinfeld . Lobster rolls and their soup are pretty awesome too.
Get soup to go and walk north one block. Public seating / baby park area in front of chipotle
Lobster bisque ! Tried the minestrone too but preferred bisque. Need to try the rest. Comes with bread , Lindt chocolate and an orange !
Lobster Bisque is amazing...yeah it's expensive for soup but totally worth it. There were some very large hunks of lobster in it..and it's a chunky soup..delicious!!!
Al's expanding out of the soup game and taking on the lobster roll trucks . Swing by and check out "Al's Famous Lobster Roll .". See for yourself how it compares to his lobster bisque .
Lobster bisque was way too good! I'm gonna be dreaming about it for the next few days. There was no line so they didn't have to go all nazi on me (I admit I was kind of disappointed about that, ha)
Lobster roll is just ok... overrated and can't compare to other places. Corn shrimp soup is too sweet, pricey at $7 for a small/tiny cup
A piece of bread , a banana and a Lindt truffle come with you soup . I'll be back next time I'm in the area:)
Best Italian wedding soup , hands down. And of course... The lobster bisque is chunky and delightful.
Yes, Soup for you! Get the jambalaya ... It won't disappoint.

Lobster bisque was chunky and creamy - delicious combo
Comes with free banana and chocolate !
Hot and tasty soups , what else do you need?!
Fastastic italian sausage soup . Big chunks of sausage as well as the spice you crave, even on a hot day.
You get bread and a fruit , not two breads ????
$10 lobster , not the best but great value

They really do give you a hard time if you stand in the wrong place. I wonder if they actually care or are just trying to live up to the reputation.

The lobster bisque is my new addiction.

Nice place to sit outdoors with usually live music during the summer and during the winter to get into the holiday season. Beautiful lighting and atmosphere. - Erica Choi
