5.0 of 5 stars. I was something of an anomaly before my visit to Louie's Alive & Kicking Lobsters; I was a Boston-born and bred girl who had never, ever tried a lobster roll. Gasp, if you will my friends, but do not...

4.0 of 5 stars. Yelpers very rarely steer me wrong, and this proved true once again with Louie's Alive and Kickin Lobster shack. This local gem is tucked away so neatly and inconspicuously, I can honestly say that I...
