G was a wonderful server. She was kind and bubbly and fun! We had the burger and lobster combo with a side of salad and fries to split. Our cocktails were also amazing. I had the smoke and fire (tequila based) and hubby had a classic vodka gimlet. The place has a cool vibe with thumping music, a mixed lively crowd and did I mention lobster!!!!!!!

Food tasted mediocre, service too. Unlikely to be back for ages. Felt like an utter waste of money.
The combination of a beef patty topped with lobster burger aka B&L Burger turned out far worse than I expected. I wasn't able to properly taste either of these food elements, but perhaps even as individual ingredients there wasn't even much taste to be had in the first place. For a burger that costs 18 pounds, that was truly disappointing. I do not see how the chain lives up to its name, at least not literally.
Also, not to mention the overly laid-back attitude of most servers who didn't bother attending even after I've raised my arm and signalled several times, when most of them were free. It was 5:30pm-ish and wasn't really busy at all. Eventually I walked up next to 2 servers, grabbed a water jug, and poured my own glass of water. Even after observing what I did, neither said anything about it. Really, how are these guys even paid?
Given that the burger still looked like a burger, and tasted kinda like a burger, and that the drink though filled to the brim with ice was fairly tasty and refreshing, a 1.5 to 2 stars is still duly deserved. -

You don't find many burger joints that also have Lobster/seafood so we decided to give B&L a try. It was busy around 7:30 Wednesday evening. A 1/2 hour wait became 15 minutes which was a nice surprise.
A good size dining area with a long bar. We started with a local draft Lager (can't remember the name) & the Lobster Martini which was excellent. Ordered the Lobster Mac & Cheese which was also excellent & a good portion for sharing.
We all wanted to try their B&L (Surf & Turf) burger. Temperature choices are medium or well-done. Burgers were cooked more than medium. Despite that, the combo of Gruyere & Lobster on top of the Patty worked well together. It is a rich and filling burger despite being 5 oz & looking like a slider when it comes out. Two ordered regular fries (it's a la carte) & mentioned they tasted like the fries of the fast food place that has served many. We also ordered the Parmesan truffle potatoes. Although a bit oily, were definitely a better compliment to the B&L burger & worth the upgrade.
If you are really hungry, the regular burger sans Lobster is 10 oz and a bit lower in price. Surprising they highlighted that their beef comes from Nebraska given the locally sourced movement.
Worth a try for the B&L Combo burger & cocktails & a few tables looked like they were enjoying the Lobster also. Service was friendly and attentive. -

Absolutely amazing!!!! We found this place on Yelp and saved it. We walked to the restaurant and entered. The place was nice and cozy! There was a 10 minute wait which was not that bad.
Our waiter was super friendly and the menu was very simple. I ordered the 5oz burger with 1lb lobster. The food came out quickly. Oh wait, I got the truffle fries as well. The best of both worlds, a burger and lobster. My GOODNESS the food was amazing. Our waiter recommended a fabulous cocktail for me that came with a shot of prosecco! I ended up ordering two!!!! I think it was called a lobster martini!
I cannot wait to come back to this place! -

"I want to take you to one of my favorite restaurants!" my dear friend said after a martini at Duke's. "It's called Burger & Lobster!". Wait, what? Did I hear you correctly through my martini haze?
Just a few blocks outside the ever zoo-like Picadilly area (where we were staying), this place was hoppin'! Usually packed (per my friend) but the wait is usually short. By the time we visited the bar & had our drinks our table was ready.
I ordered the grilled lobster (followed what my friend ordered & she insisted grilled) & H opted for the B&L because he can never pass up a burger. The food came out quickly & boy howdy was it ever so good! The salad had crispy veggies with a tangy vinaigrette, the lobster grilled just right, crispy-tender chips & my oh my the drawn herbed butter. H said his burger was top notch, juicy & chock full of flavor. Really enjoyed our meal!
The service was spot on, fast & the food delicious.
