Salt River Lobster has terrific seafood. The location in Bethesda is on Old Georgetown Road opposite NIH at Greentree Road and the location in Kensington Saturday mornings is at the train station on Kensington Parkway.

We always use Legal Seafoods and have been very happy with their packages.

Any lobster you see alive in a tank is the same as the next.

I haven't done that, but when I want good Maine lobsters I've bought from Salt River in Bethesda. (They bring down fresh lobsters from Maine and sell them Fri. in Bethesda, Sat. in Kensington and Sunday in Baltimore.)

Has anyone done this and had a good experience? If so, which company did you use? I want to have a special treat for my husband but I want them to be good!
