We had the pleasure of enjoying the best lobster roll we’ve ever had on the Gold Coast! The lobster and fish was incredibly fresh and flavorful, and the oysters and prawns were equally delightful, all at very reasonable prices.
What’s even better is that they offer a selection of fresh seafood you can take home, or they can cook it for you right on the spot such a fantastic option!
The staff were not only helpful but also made our visit enjoyable with their great service and friendly. They truly deserve recognition for their efforts. This spot is a gem for seafood lovers we’ll definitely be back
The seafoods here are deliciously fresh! The cold platter was yummmm!! The grilled lobster is a must!!! It was so juicy and yummy, it comes with salad too! I loved how they make it so yummy and affordable at the same time! I’ve included menu here for you to check it out~~~
The parking is easy, just park at the shopping centre parking lot. Plenty of seating area~
The Blue Lobster Fresh and Cooked Seafood is a Wonderful Seafood Shop and Restaurant.
Located in the Q Super Centre near Coles.
Really Helpful and Friendly Service from the Young Ladies.
Had the Small Hot Platter- which includes 2x Fish, Mediterranean Style Squid, Battered NZ Green Lipped Mussels, Patagonian Prawn Cutlets, Chips, Lemon and Tartare Sauce.
The Seafood was Perfectly Cooked and Delicious.
Although it was a Small Platter, there is Certainly Enough Food for 2-3 Hungry People !
Excellent Value for Money.
Do Yourself a Favour.
The Blue Lobster is my favorite place to buy fresh fish and seafood to take home. The quality is consistently fresh and delicious. The lovely owners, Maria and her husband, are the friendliest and most welcoming people you could meet. I highly recommend this place for purchasing fresh seafood to cook at home or enjoying a nicely cooked fish on-site. It’s a fantastic addition to the Q Super Centre and the entire neighborhood. Thank you!

Great experience! Excellent customer service and incredibly fresh seafood. We arrived later in the evening and were still warmly welcomed, even though oysters had sold out. The staff went out of their way to accommodate us, and everything we ordered was absolutely delicious. The photo doesn’t do it justice—highly recommend!
Overall, I would visit again if I were in the area.
4.2/5 Oysters are fresh, they only have 1 option though.
4.5/5 Cold lobsters are huge and quite tasty.
3.9/5 the grilled half lobster tasted slightly overcooked – quite dry and a bit tough, it is also very small in size
4.2/5 Fish and chips were almost amazing, but somehow the barramundi inside falls apart / flakes instead of being in clumps of freshness.
Might be the way that fillet was handled before/during the process or the age of the fish.
Chips – I ate more than I usually did.
4.4/5 – deep fried mussels were up to standard too.
Absolutely the best fish and chips on the Gold Coast! The snapper was fresh and perfectly cooked, and the lobster roll was next level. Huge thanks to Chris, the owner, for being so warm and welcoming. Can’t wait to come back!
The fried/battered fish was quite nice, we had the red Emperor. The fresh lobster and Moreton bay bugs was a tad overcooked. The oysters were quite fresh, we enjoyed those. The fresh prawns were okay, nothing special, however nothing bad either. The guy serving was pretty inexperienced, he just needs more training.
