Lobster Alley Temporarily Closes In Raritan For The Winter

RARITAN, NJ — Raritan's Lobster Alley is temporarily closed for the winter as owners and Bridgewater couple Rebecca and Kim Hassouna take a break.

The eatery at 18 West Somerset St. closed at the beginning of the new year and remain closed until March, said Rebecca Hassouna.

The closure is not permanent as Hassouna says the owners and staff just needed a break.

In the meantime, the Hassounas are still focusing on their other business, Catering Solutions.

Lobster Alley is known for flying in fresh lobsters by plane overnight from Maine straight to the restaurant each week. Read More: Lobster Alley Flies Fresh Maine Lobster Straight To Raritan

Lobsters are then placed on made-from-scratch rolls, which are fresh-baked every day.

Along with lobster rolls, the restaurant offers lobster mac and cheese, lobster bisque, sausage and peppers, eggplant sandwich and Cajun shrimp. There are also some sweet treats including a blueberry smash lemonade and ice cream.

The restaurant was opened in June 2020.
