Buff Burger
Instagram alerted me to Buff Burger now having lobster rolls on Fridays. I don’t know if it’s a summer special or if they will continue to offer it indefinitely, but I couldn’t pass up an opportunity to try their take on the lobster roll.
This isn’t the first time I’ve dined here so I was already familiar with their service and food. Just a heads up, besides being card only, you will leave the restaurant smelling like smoke from the burgers. Not a terrible thing, but just something to be aware of when dining here.
The bread was incredibly soft and buttery. They had more relish than I wanted, but the cuts of lobster meat was plentiful and tasty. I have yet to find a place that offers a decent hot lobster roll (cold seems to be the preferred offering in Houston), but I prefer it slightly above what Bernie’s Burger Bus offers the first Fridays of every month.
One of these days, I need to do a proper write-up and comparison of all the lobster roll options in Houston.
