1. Mary’s Fish Camp in NYC<\/strong><\/h2>\nCertain food items can generate endless debate on who does it best in New York City<\/a>. Pizza, burgers, ramen\u2026the claims of superiority never end. But we\u2019ll put one battle to rest for you. The\u00a0best lobster roll in NYC goes to Mary\u2019s Fish Camp in the West Village. The toasted bun, the fresh lobster, the sauce and spices\u2014they all come together to create something pretty darn fantastic. As lobster rolls go, we appreciate when the meat has been tossed in a healthy amount of mayo, and Mary gets us. She\u2019s not stingy\u00a0with the serving size, either. The sandwich is overflowing with huge chunks of sweet lobster meat, a pretty little sprinkle of chives, a squirt of lemon to finish. Welcome, to lobster roll heaven. \u00a0It\u2019s been a neighborhood staple for years, delivering consistently fresh and tasty seafood.<\/p>\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/www.orbitz.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/Lobster-Shack-CT.png\")
