The Lobster Cage in Ensley - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Great warm lobster rolls! Amazing service! Friendly and fast. My only constructive criticism would be for the lobster Mac n cheese is to make it a bit thicker, add more cheese, and seasoning! It was a bit bland and soupy!

Great restaurant, family run & low key atmosphere, with even better food. Definitely worth the stop if you’re anywhere in the area.

This little place has the best lobster rolls! They are fresh and the lobster is very tender. Don't be put off by the tiny out of the way location. Potato salad was great too!

Our experience at Lobster Cage was absolutely amazing. We’re from Dallas, Texas and wish we had food like this back home. Service, food, and atmosphere were all five-star worthy. Will definitely be back yearly. The owner made the experience excellent.

If you're in Pensacola and you're looking for some really good lobster, make sure you stop on by here cause everything on the venue is 5 stars

Very disappointed in our meal, was looking forward to it. The lobster bisque was the best, I also had the lister pasta and warm lobster roll. The lobster was the most disappointing of all. The hot chili paste however was excellent!

Had the warm lobster roll with double meat and it was delicious!

The lobster and Thai infused pasta was Delicious!!!

Good was absolutely amazing. Can’t be the price for lobster fare. Can’t wait for them to open other locations closer to the water.

Today I had the opportunity to visit this small, but wonderful place. The food is delicious, the person who served me was very friendly, the place is very clean and the atmosphere is pleasant. You definitely have to go try their delicious food.

Clean and tidy little spot that serves up absolutely fire lobster dishes at a fair price. A must try.

I’d never had a lobster roll and waited until I got down here from Tennessee to try one. This place was #1 on Google and for good reason. Hole in the wall with spectacular lobster rolls. I got the cold roll and I regret not getting two. Amazing! New favorite place in Pensacola.

I have never had a Lobster Roll. Just didn’t have those growing on the TN/VA line. Pensacola resident for the last few years and finally had one today. Probably the best thing I have ever had. All I could think while eating it was when I was coming back to get another. And just almost ordered another before I finished the first. My Wife had have them plenty before and these are the best she ever had growing in South Florida. Best spot I have had in Pensacola. TEN STARS!

My wife put in a to-go order and I got there just as the food was being wrapped and put in bags. Highly recommend the lobster rolls. Still torn whether I like the warm roll over the cold roll. You'll understand the dilemma if you get both. The actually bread rolls themselves are amazing as well.

Amazing food served by great people! Definitely worth trying!

The staff is super friendly. A limited menu but prepared perfectly. A lesson that large food chains should learn.

Simple menu. Delicious food. Good price. Enjoyed my dinner date with my husband ❤️😊

Tiny and quaint atmosphere with great service. I am a lobster roll snob, and if I could give this place 10 stars for their roll, I would. The lobster rolls at the bigger, higher-end restaurants in town do not compare.

Went here on a whim! Decided on the cold lobster roll, lobster bisque w/ grilled cheese, Thai tea, and a sweet tea. (we also got the cheesecake) Cold lobster roll was exactly what I was looking for and definitely hit the spot! Lobster bisque was loaded with pieces of lobster and the grilled cheese was phenomenal. Thai tea tasted fresh, sweet tea was the perfect level of sweet. Cheesecake was simple, yet delicious, and a great way to finish the meal! Food was out quick. Everyone was sweet. Loved the atmosphere, literally a hole in the wall but I wouldn't change it❤️❤️❤️

Potato salad was good and lobster roll

Clean and tidy dining area. The food was excellent. Service was quick and extremely friendly. We enjoyed the warm lobster roll, Thai lobster pasta dish, and Thai tea. Tea was fresh, The warm lobster roll was filling and a good portion. The Thai past was also delicious and a large portion. Highly recommend and we will be back, again.

I was shocked at the size of the lobster & the bun, was maybe 5" long. It was delicious though

Incredible food. Genuinely. Finally a place worth the money.

Great food made to order. Very cute decor and clean!

My wife and I went here last night after being referred by friends. It was phenomenal! I had the Warm Lobster Roll plate and she had the Lobster Tai Infused Pasta both were superb. The staff/owners are super nice and attentive! We will definitely be return customers!

Best lobster rolls in Pensacola, it’s a hole in a wall kind of place with minimal seating but well worth stopping by if you love lobster.

The grilled cheese lobster sandwich was amazing, the kitchen looks very nice too!

The restaurant isn’t much, but that doesn’t matter because the food is incredible. Best lobster roll we ever had. Mac n cheese isn’t what we expected but it was still delicious. Lobster Bisque was really good too!

Totally a great experience, the owners are very Nice

This is THE BEST lobster roll I have ever had. The worst thing about this place is how far it is from my house! Owner is friendly, polite, helpful! Food tasted flavorful, just the right amount of spice and seasonings. The homemade spicy sauce is 🔥 if you need an extra kick. I had the warm lobster roll with potato salad and every bite was the perfect combination of lobster flavor between a warmed softly toasted roll. Potato salad gets her invited to the cookout! I also had the lobster Thai infused pasta and there are no words to really describe the excellent blend of spices and flavors in this dish. The pasta also comes with a side of the lobster roll bread. Let's not forget the portions! If you can finish your meal here you are just greedy. We took home leftovers and they were even better later for dinner. Oooo weeeee!! I will be back!

Hands down the best lobster roll I’ve ever tried in Pensacola.

Visited for lunch today what a pleasure to find this hidden gem! Good food & friendly service.

Don’t walk, RUN to the lobster cage. We are Pensacola people, and this is the best food I’ve had IN A WHILE! It’s a little off the beaten path, but it was incredible. It’s a small, family run business and the owners were so kind and welcoming. We split a warm lobster roll with a side of coleslaw and then the Thai Lobster pasta. Both were EXCELLENT. We will back!

We forgot to take photos but we ordered a cold and hot lobster roll along with lobster Mac n cheese. The service was very fast and friendly. Nice little and pop place. We will be returning.

Great Lobster Roll! Awesome portions for the price!

We had a warm lobster roll and the lobster Thai pasta. Both were wonderful! Our toddler lives the pasta. The owner is extremely friendly and puts lots of love in her food.

Reviews were so good I was sure the visitors were getting paid. And then I went. HOLY MOLY. It’s Heavenly. No one is lying. Or at least they didn’t offer to pay me. Delicious food, awesome service, clean establishment, sweet owners. It’s all TRUE. Small curated menu. Try it all because it’s unique with well balanced flavors. Thoughtful beer and wine choices, as well. Go. Just go.

Did not know this place was here!!! So delicious

You gotta go! This is one of those memorable food places you'll share with your friends when you get back from vacation. Believe me, you don't have a place like this back home. Lobster is so fresh and flavorful, you won't be disappointed. Highly recommend the Lobster and Thai Infused Pasta, it's my favorite new pasta dish!

The Thai infused noodles are an amazing compliment to the lobster and steak! Very reasonably priced. You won't go home hungry.

This place is a total gem. The food it amazing, the service is top notch and prices are very reasonable. And endless refills on Thai Tea!

Don't judge this one by its cover. While the exterior is a bit understated, and the interior is minimalistic at best, the service was spectacular and the food was pretty good. Our table had the warm lobster roll, the bisque and grilled cheese, and the lobster and Thai infused pasta. We also got the lobster macaroni and cheese to go for lunch tomorrow. Although the bisque was not spectacular, everything else was very good, and the owners were very kind and upbeat. Most definitely a hidden gem!

What a great lil place with some fantastic food! I had warm lobster roll and wife had lobster and Thai pasta. They both were delicious and plentiful servings. Will work my way down the menu. Wish I had done a few pics …but when you are hungry ya don’t think of those things. See ya soon

Delicious food, great service and a great atmosphere.

I’ve meaning to go there forever but I’m SO grateful I stopped by today! The warm lobster roll and the Cole slaw are amazing. The only thing that I can is I would have liked mine toasted more. Everything else perfect. The customer service is wonderful! Thank you for providing a great experience!’

Cozy place. Owners super nice and the food was delicious!!! Can’t beat the prices either! Will definitely be back!

Went by myself about an hour before closing. It was just myself and the owners (I think they were the owners, I didn't ask).The ambience was great for a chilly night and i personally didn't mind the emptiness. The warm lobster roll was so good I ordered 2. Very hospitable and laid back atmosphere. Will return with friends/family in the future.Very cozy, 4 table, intimate setting, great for a quick bite inbetween exploring Pensacola and the surrounding areas.

The lobster rolls are outstanding. The warm is my favorite. I have had Cousins Maine Lobster and this blows it away! The potato salad is really good as well. I love that it's not too sweet. They are very friendly.

Inside was clean and the food was hot and fresh! Would I go back again, yes.

Ahoy, seafood lovers! Just back from Pensacola, and my taste buds are still singing sea shanties about **The Lobster Cage**. If you're anywhere near this charming Florida town, do yourself a favor and drop anchor at this nautical-themed treasure trove of crustacean goodness. **Lobster Rolls That Rock the Boat:** Let's set sail with the stars of the show: the lobster rolls. I snagged both the **warm with hot butter and lemon** and the **cold with mayo and chives**, and let me tell you, they were a study in lobstery perfection. The warm roll was a buttery brioche hug overflowing with sweet, succulent lobster мясо, the melted butter glistening like sunlit pearls. Each bite was a burst of briny bliss, the delicate lobster flavor dancing on the buttery stage. The cold roll was a different kind of magic. Chunks of chilled lobster, firm and springy, tossed in a creamy, tangy mayo with a whisper of chives. Every bite was a refreshing explosion of summer on the seashore, the mayo perfectly complementing the natural sweetness of the lobster. **Lobster Beyond the Roll:** But The Lobster Cage's siren song doesn't stop there. I also dove into the **lobster quesadillas** – crispy pockets of golden goodness oozing with melty cheese and generous chunks of lobster. Each bite was a molten treasure map leading to a land of cheesy, lobstery delight. And then there was the **lobster mac n' cheese** – a rich, creamy masterpiece studded with tender lobster and a crunchy parmesan crust. It was like a warm hug for your soul, the perfect comfort food with a luxurious lobster upgrade. **More Than Just Lobsters:** While the lobsters take center stage, The Lobster Cage has plenty to offer non-crustacean fans too. Their **catch of the day** changes with the tides, ensuring fresh, seasonal options. And their **sides**, like the crispy fries and the tangy coleslaw, are perfect complements to any main course. **Setting Sail for Flavortown:** The atmosphere at The Lobster Cage is as charming as the food. Nautical décor, friendly service, and a lively buzz make it a place where you can relax, unwind, and indulge in your love for all things lobster. So, if you're looking for a Pensacola dining experience that's sure to reel you in and leave you wanting more, The Lobster Cage is your catch. With its succulent lobster rolls, creative lobster dishes, and warm, inviting atmosphere, it's a guaranteed voyage to Flavortown. Just be sure to bring your appetite – you'll need it! **Final Verdict:** 5 out of 5 anchors! The Lobster Cage is a Pensacola must-visit for anyone who loves fresh seafood, friendly service, and a touch of nautical charm. Weigh anchor and set sail for this crustacean paradise – you won't regret it! **P.S.** Don't forget to check out their **daily specials** for even more lobstery goodness! I hope this glowing review sets your taste buds sailing for The Lobster Cage! If you have any questions or want to know more about specific dishes, feel free to ask. Happy lobstering!

The best lobster roll ever. Just visited the " Mariner" in Mystic Seaport in Connecticut and the lobster roll was awful @ 26.99...This place in Pensacola deserves 5 stars. Loved it. Will be back many times.

I got Thai Beef Salad, and my husband got ribeye spagetthi. OMG, their steak is huge and tastes good. The meat is melting in my mouth. I can’t stop eating!! Good foods and reasonable price.

Do you love lobster? This will definitely satisfy! The staff are incredibly friendly and talented. The lobsters are cooked to perfection.

The best of the town อร่อยมาก อร่อยจริงๆ แนะนำ ทุกท่าน ต้องมากินให้ได้ครับ

This is easily one of the best restaurants in Pensacola and Cantonment. Lobster rolls are exceptional and their pasta dishes are amazing. Make sure to ask for spice seasoning that they can give to you on the side. Great establishment.

The Thai noodles with lobster and ribeye would have been better if there were more sauce

Simple, clean, friendly staff, and great food. We ordered the Warm Lobster Roll, as well as, the Lobster & Thai Infused pasta. Both were great, but my boyfriend and I favored the pasta more. We'll definitely be back.

BEST LOBSTER ROLL EVER. The roll and lobster has just the right amount of buttery goodness to it. The price is amazing, and the couple that own it are adorable! We will be back! HIGHLY RECOMMEND 🦞

What a nice quaint place to eat. Food was excellent along with the service. Will return soon!

I love the Lobster rolls, but the Lobster with Thai Noodles. A perfect combination. The price is right and the hospitality is 💯. Thank you

We stopped in the area to have lunch at another restaurant and luckily for us, it was closed! We found the Lobster Cage instead! My husband and I both had the delicious cold Lobster rolls. The owner puts a lotta love into the New England style bread roll by toasting it , then adding a touch of garlic butter. It was very tasty and filling along with the side. She makes wonderful Thai Iced coffee too.

In town for a conference and after reading the reviews decided to stop by for lunch. I ordered the lobster quesadilla with yum yum sauce. My food was very good! The owners were very hospitable. Small local spot that won’t disappoint if you’re in the mood for lobster!

Outstanding!! We had the buttered lobster roll and lobster Mac and cheese and they were great!! I will be back.

My husband and I both ordered the warm lobster roll. The warm lobster rolls were delicious and both had a generous amount of lobster. It's conveniently located and really cute when you go inside. Service was fast and friendly. We'll definitely be back and I look forward to trying the other menu items. Edit: Came back again and tried the Lobster Thai Pasta. Really delicious and has the option to control the spicy level as you request. This time I remembered to take pictures. 10/10 recommend.

Tay the owner is the absolute sweetest! The warm buttery lobster roll was definitely worth the stop. Even the potato salad was good. Love supporting local ❤️

I’ve been wanting to try this place for a while. I got my wish when I convinced my husband to put in an order for us. We were not disappointed! The warm lobster rolls were full of lobster meat and the bread from Craft bakery was delicious. We both had the coleslaw which was really good and I’m not a coleslaw fan. My husband also decided to order the banana crêpe which he devoured. This place may become a weekly obsession. We will definitely be back. The other great thing about this place is it was clean, and you can tell the owner really cares about the food that she serves. That goes a long way with us. Please support this local establishment.

if you like bread a little thicker than Wonder Bread, very little tuff lobster, ($16.95) a ice cream scoop of tasting like commericailly made in a jar potato salad, a slice of lemon (nice), or add more lobster for $10.00 ($26.00), greeted obnoxiously, this is your place from our unhappy experience ~ will not return nor recommend ~

My husband and I went yesterday. It was fantastic. The owners were outstanding. The lobster was great!!!! Wish they were closer to Perdifo Key, but we will be back for sure! Highly recommend

Lobster with Thai pasta was delicious!!

Lobster was good and fairly priced.

We left hungry. In my opinion it's not enough food for the price. We had a lobster roll and Mac n cheese.

Small place with big flavor. They serve lobster rolls, bisque, Mac & Cheese, and lobster Thai pasta. They are closed from 3-5, and on Mondays

Tiny little sandwich shop but the lobster rolls were better than the one I paid twice as much for key west. I’ll definitely be back!

Great lobster rolls. So glad we found this place. We will be back.

Took my mom hear for lunch. A little pricey, but the warm lobster 🦞 roll was very delicious. 4 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ as I still felt hungry. Few choices on sides, they should consider adding French fries/chips (not just potato chips).. Very sweet owners!

Great food and prices. I got the warm lobster roll with double meat and potato salad. The roll was excellent and held up well with double lobster and lots of butter and lemon. The lobster was very tender not rubbery at all, and the double portion size filled me up nicely! That potato salad might have stole the show for me though definitely get that as your side! Can’t wait to try the cold roll and the Crepes!

A very generously filled lobster roll with juicy, buttery, tender lobster. It hit the spot and was a good value.

Had my first cold lobster roll here, and it was the best lobster roll I've ever had. Flavorful, and the lobster was tender. The roll was toasted nicely and didn't fall apart when I ate it; it was a sweet type of bread. The presentation was beautiful, and even the lemon wedge had a surprisingly abundant amount of juice inside. Totally worth it. Can't wait to come back and try the other menu offerings. Service was fast and friendly, and atmosphere was relaxed. So happy to have a great lobster roll place in this area!

The lobster roll on a buttery roll was delicious! The banana and blueberry crepe with cream was also incredible!

Come on down everyone! This little place is quite a find and I enjoyed every bite. I chose the lobster Thai pasta and you can ask for your heat level. I chose Thai hot (5) and it was to die for! I really like spice so I had them give me some extra on the side. The lobster was cooked perfectly and the pasta was perfect al dente. My friend Christine ordered the warm lobster roll with a side of potato salad, she really enjoyed it. She said the potato salad was delicious, not too sweet. But the star was the lobster roll, the bread was toasted and buttery and the lobster was plentiful and just delicious 😋 The place itself is nothing fancy but it's clean and the owners are the nicest people ever! Please, support this small business, they truly deserve it. Oh, pleeeeeeease order the berry crepe! I INHALED mine!! It was absolutely spectacular!

Awesome food!! My husband, who is very picky, absolutely loved his warm lobster roll, the cold lobster roll was delicious as well, the bread is so good! And the service is great!!

What can I say except phenomenal! We had the lobstery and pasta and lobstery bisque and grilled cheese. The owner was very helpful and knowledgeable of their menu and helped us decide on what would be perfect for us. Highly, highly recommend!

We tried this place for the first time today for lunch and it’s delicious! The owners are very kind and informative of their menu. We tried the lobster pasta and the lobster bisque and it was very flavorful and tasty! We’ll be back! 😊

Yummy food & super nice owner , she puts thought & effort into the flavors
