Dive into the Best Seafood in Orlando
We’re fortunate to enjoy the warm summer-like weather all year long in Orlando, and with it comes the perpetual craving for succulent seafood and indulgent lobster dishes reminiscent of the Northeastern coast. The Nauti Lobstah serves authentic New England Seafood and fresh Maine Lobster to guests hungry for the best seafood in Orlando.
The New England region is well-known for its famous seafood specialties and fresh Maine lobsters. From family-owned restaurants to local dinner tables, great seafood has been the tradition enjoyed by generations in Rhode Island and Vermont, throughout Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Connecticut, and to the rocky shores of Maine. New England seafood is famous throughout the United States and has become a beloved cuisine for many Northeasterners and Southerners alike. When you’re in the Orlando area, rest assured you can find the best New England seafood at The Nauti Lobstah. Our owner and chef Michael Rumplik is a Rhode Island native, happy to share his favorite taste of home.
Let’s dive into The Nauti Lobstah seafood menu favorites!
Top 5 Nauti Lobstah Menu Items for Seafood Lovers
1. Lobster Rolls: If you’re looking for the best lobster roll in Orlando, our lobster rolls are made with buttery toasted buns generously filled with succulent Maine lobster meat that is cooked to perfection. There are no fillers in this “Lobstah” Roll! Choose a New England Lobster Roll served chilled and gently tossed in Chef Mike’s herbed mayonnaise dressing or the Connecticut Lobster Roll served warm with drawn butter. Nauti Lobstah Lobster Rolls are served with homemade crispy potato chips, Chef Mike’s remoulade sauce, and your additional choice of classic side dish. Go BIG! The Nauti Lobstah is proud to be the home of The Biggest Lobster Roll in Florida! A two-foot-long lobster roll stuffed with two pounds or more of Maine lobster meat! One bite and you’ll be saying, “Shell yeah!”
2. New England Clam Chowder: The perfect start to your meal! New England Clam Chowder – or “chowdah” as we call it – is a creamy soup traditionally made with clams, potatoes, onions, celery, and heavy cream. The combination of creamy broth and tender pieces of freshly shucked Northern quahog clams make for a richly flavored and hearty chowder. Chef Mike’s secret recipe is made from scratch with only the highest quality ingredients. He recommends adding an order of Rhode Island Clam Cakes to dip for an authentic New England experience.
3. Clams: Honoring Chef Mike’s Rhode Island roots and a lifelong love of fresh New England Seafood delicacies, start your meal with Clams Casino or discover Gloucester Steamahs! One pound of fresh Gloucester steamer clams are served with herbed broth and drawn butter. The flavorful broth will have you asking for extra bread to soak up every drop! In the mood for a classic pasta dish? Order the Nauti Lobstah’s take on classic linguine and clams. In our version of Linguine With Steamed Little Neck Clams, you can choose from either Garlic, Basil, and White Wine Broth or Red Sauce. Either way, it’s a generous portion of clam goodness!
4. Fish and Chips: New England is famous for crispy beer-battered fish and chips! The classic pub dish originated in England and made its way to the United States. The Nauti Lobstah uses haddock, a mild and flakey white fish that is part of the cod fish family. The fish is quickly deep-fried in batter, which gives it a crispy texture on the outside while keeping the haddock juicy on the inside. It is then served with crispy french fries, tartar sauce, and a lemon wedge.
5. Fresh Maine Lobster: Fresh Maine lobsters are prized for their sweet and succulent meat, making them a favorite among seafood lovers. Add a lobster tail to any entree to satisfy a hankering for lobster any day. For a lobster meal, The Nauti Lobstah offers a 1-1/2 pound boiled or broiled Maine Lobstah or Twin Lobstah Tails entrees served with homemade sides and drawn butter. Looking for an even more indulgent treat? Our Baked and Stuffed Maine Lobster is truly a specialty that seafood lovers should not miss. The delectable Fisherman Style Baked Stuffed Lobstah starts with a whole, fresh Maine lobster skillfully cracked open, ensuring the tender lobster meat inside remains perfectly intact. The lobster is then generously stuffed with chunks of tender shrimp, scallops and herbs, then topped with buttery Ritz cracker crumbs and baked to perfection.
For the most impressive lobster dish you may experience in your lifetime, try our 3 pound fresh Maine Lobster, Chef Mike named the Lazy Man Style Lobstah. The massive 3 pound lobster is removed from the shell and cooked to perfection with wine and lemon, stuffed with shrimp and scallops, and presented in the shell with drawn butter. David Martin of Fox35 Orlando enjoyed this beautiful lobster creation when he featured The Nauti Lobstah in his TV show “Central Florida Eats Live!” The impressive portion is enough for two to share, for the table as a special treat for the holiday season, or for one hungry lobster lover looking for the best seafood in Orlando. It was first introduced as a Valentine’s Day Lobster Special and has become a year-round Nauti Lobstah guest favorite! A wonderful way to celebrate a special occasion, birthday, or anniversary!
Surf and Turf: Lobster and Steak
While Fresh Maine Lobster and New England Seafood take center stage at The Nauti Lobstah, the menu also caters to steak enthusiasts. We offer mouthwatering surf-and-turf options that combine Maine lobster with perfectly grilled steaks.

New England Clambake In Orlando
For Northeasterners craving classic New England Clambake flavors, look no further than The Nauti Lobstah. We recommend ordering your personal favorites for the table to share, so everyone can sample the best seafood in Orlando.

For entrees, order Steamed Little Neck Clams, Jumbo New Bedford Sea Scallops, Steamed Peel & Eat Shrimp or Shrimp Broiled with Garlic, Lemon and White Wine. It’s not a New England Clambake without the lobstah; finish with boiled or broiled Fresh Maine Lobsters or lobster tails for the table.
