In a one-time grocery and milk shop from the 1950s, this cosy ‘wine bistro’ chalks its daily French-influenced meat, fish and shellfish specials (including its namesake lobster) on the blackboard. Three dozen wines are available by the glass. There are just seven tables, so reservations are a must.
