What does lobster meat taste like?

I have always wanted to try it. But, I never have. I have had crab and shrimp. Does it taste like a cross between the two? That is what I have always thought.

It really is delicious. Mild and slightly sweet. I hope you get to try it some day. Cold water Lobsters have the best flavor in my opinion.

@SweetMae Warm water caught anything isn't nearly as good if you ask me. It always has that flavor of garbage stink.

@MethDozer I have only eaten Maine Lobsters to be honest.

I'd say it tastes more like a cross between crab and scallop.

@OggggO I love scallops. Sounds delicious! Thanks for responding.

I think it's actually much nicer than crab, not as strong and 'earthy'

When we had it in Jamaica it is sweet. It has that fishy tang you can get but it's smooth, shrimp is like a lower tone whereas lobster taste soft and salty sweet all at the same time it's really something that you either love or hate. In the UK it's nothing like this it's horrible the best thing to have is cray fish tails because lobster is very expensive and just taste nothing like what you have from the carribbean or states. As you can tell I love lobster I have not had that since 2009 when I last went in 2011 in the July I was in montego Bay they were out of season as that is when they mate.

If you never have you must try it. I like both crab legs and lobster..but for me it also has to have a good butter to dip it in.

Sort of? Hard to say because it comes a lot down to how it’s prepared and seasoned of course

Kind of like crab but sweeter. If you can get a genuine Maine lobster the claws are really sweet. Most often you get cray fish that they call lobster which isn't as sweet.

It tastes great... don't forget the butter

Kinda like shrimp, but more meaty
It’s really good, and yes, it does have a comparable taste. I’ve seasoned it and put it in gumbo.

Sweet and fluffy. It doesn't have as much of that rank beach stink and rotten fish sweet flavor of Atlantic blue crab. It's closer to pacific crab but not as good. Crab legs are way better and cleaner tasting.
