About Lotsa Lobster
Lotsa Lobster is a seafood market in Sarasota, Florida. It is listed at 8780 S Tamiami Trl, Sarasota, FL 34238, which places it among the local businesses of Sarasota that residents and visitors turn to when they need this kind of service close by.
Store size varies enormously, from a small corner grocery with a few aisles to a full supermarket chain location in Sarasota with a bakery, seafood counter and food court under one roof. Sales and promotions are often posted in-store or in a weekly flyer rather than online, so prices listed on a website may be out of date. Seafood markets sell live and on-ice product and can usually clean or prepare fish on request for a small fee. Specialty food stores in Florida may focus narrowly on one category, like a butcher, a rice and dry goods shop, or an import store, so calling ahead to confirm stock for a specific item saves a wasted trip.
The business lists hours on 6 days of the week. The most common schedule is 11 amβ6 pm. It is closed on Monday. As with most places, expect changes around holidays; the phone number below is the fastest way to confirm. You can reach Lotsa Lobster at (941) 918-2529; calling is usually the quickest way to ask about availability, prices or directions. More information is available on its website, lotsalobstersarasota.com.
Customers rate it 4.7 out of 5 on Google across 299 reviews, placing it among the better-regarded seafood markets in Sarasota.
Sarasota is in Florida, in the Southeast, where summers are long, hot and humid, winters are mild, and afternoon thunderstorms and the hurricane season from June to November can change plans at short notice. US addresses list the street number and name, then the city, state abbreviation and ZIP code, and Sarasota follows the same pattern; a suite or apartment number such as Ste 200 refers to a unit inside the building. The map link on this page shows the exact spot.

We have been going to Lotsa Lobster since they opened and have been loyal customers ever since. This is by far the best place to buy your fish in Sarasota/Venice. The quality is unmatched, the prices are reasonable, and it's run by a family that truly makes you feel like family. We are very picky about the freshness of our fish and Lotsa Lobster has never let us down! We can't recommend them enough.

A piece of Maine and New Brunswick Canada! We discovered Lotsa Lobster last year and what a precious find. We no longer have to wait for summer to savor incredible lobster. Not only is it extra delicious and fresh, steamed just the way we like it, but the warm hospitality and friendliness of the staff make us feel like home. Ohβ¦ and did I mention the value! For the cost of what it costs you in high season up North, you get a full pound and a half lobster. Weβve yet to taste the other offerings, hard to buy anything but lobster when weβre there!

I found the secret lobster spot! I was driving around and accidentally found this place. I seen the word lobster and went to check it out and Iβm glad I did it made my trip! When I come to Florida, I want to eat local seafood. This place is kind of cool that itβs part market part aquarium where you get to eat whatβs in the tank lol. The staff was extremely friendly. Itβs family owned, And I learned more than I asked for about the food. By the time the owner got done talking. I didnβt wanna wait till I get home to cook it. He offered to steam and even see the food right there for me. He steamed my lobster and shrimp while I waited And it was probably the best lobster and shrimp that Iβve tasted in a long time!! Do yourself a favor and just walk through the door. While I was standing there about 15 to 20 people mustβve come in and out I found the local secret spot for lobster!!π¦

We bought some fresh gulf shrimp and they were delicious! I am not sure if I talked to the owner or just someone that worked there, he pitched for the Brewers for a few years. Good conversation! Great service!

This place is awesome. Went there New Year's Eve and apparently it's their busiest day. There was a big line of people and in order to accommodate those people they had a keg for waiting customers. We got stone crabs from there and they were awesome.
