If you are looking for an affordable lobster roll in Toronto, then we've got news for you. A new fast food lobster shack just opened in the city and promises delicious and loaded rolls.

People in Ontario aren't as lucky as those on the East and West coasts when it comes to fresh seafood because we don't have an ocean, but a taste of the coast is coming to the province.

Blue Claw Lobster Shack just opened in Toronto and they source their lobster from the East Coast. According to the website, the restaurant has an "ocean to table" mission where they work with "self-owned fishery plants" to provide "affordable snacks for the masses out of premium-quality lobsters."

At this grab-and-go restaurant, you can expect a pound of fresh lobster in each roll, fresh fish from the East Coast, an innovative menu, and sustainable sourcing.

The lobster spot started as a "seaside shack off the Canadian coast of the Atlantic Ocean," according to its website. But, now they've opened the first Toronto location, with a second one on the way. Since its opening, people have been sharing their experiences all over social media.

Also, compared to the prices of other lobster tolls in Toronto, this place definitely sits on the more affordable side.

The East Coast Classic Roll costs $14.95 for the buttery sandwich with chilled lobster with mayo, lemon, and black pepper. If you want to upgrade to a combo, that'll cost $18.95.

The first Blue Claw in Toronto is located at 25 Charles St. W., and if you head there before February 23, you can get your hands on some grand opening deals.
