Got Questions About Maine Lobster Tails?
Our Maine lobster tails are sourced directly from the pristine waters of Maine. We ensure the freshest lobster tails by partnering with local fishermen and shipping them immediately. When you buy lobster tails online from us, freshness is guaranteed.
Cook 5–6 oz lobster tails for about 7 to 9 minutes, depending on method, until the flesh turns opaque and pearly and the internal temperature reads about 140 to 145°F if you use a thermometer. Visual doneness is the gold standard for lobster.
Thaw lobster tails overnight in the fridge. For a quicker method, seal in a bag and submerge in cold water for 30–60 minutes, then pat dry before cooking.
Tails are processed with High-Pressure Processing for safety, then flash-frozen individually with IQF. This locks in raw texture and sweetness without preservatives.
Cold-water lobster tails are prized for firmer texture and clean, sweet flavor, which helps the meat stay in tender chunks after cooking. Warm-water tails can taste softer.
Yes. Maine lobster tails come from clawed cold-water lobsters with a firmer, briny-sweet meat, while spiny lobster tails are clawless, typically warmer-water, and softer in texture.
Plan 1 tail per person for 5–6 oz lobster tails with sides or surf-and-turf, and 2 tails for hearty mains or big appetites.
We regularly feature 4–5 oz and 5–6 oz tails in multi-packs, family boxes, and bulk 10 lb cases. See the product tiles above for current options and pricing.
Broil or grill for 6–10 minutes after butterflying for restaurant-style presentation. Boiling or steaming is fastest for recipes like lobster rolls. Always cook until opaque.
It varies by size. For example, 10 lb 5–6 oz “Value” boxes list approximate tail counts on their product pages. Check the specific box for the latest count and price.
Yes. ShopLobster features Maine lobster tails on sale with free shipping and next-day delivery options at checkout on all items.
Free shipping is included. Next-day delivery is available at checkout for most addresses. Orders placed before the daily cutoff time are eligible for next-day; no deliveries Sat–Mon.
They are shipped raw and flash-frozen, ready for grilling, broiling, or baking.
Warm gently in a covered pan with butter or steam for 2–3 minutes just until heated through. Stop as soon as the meat is warm and opaque to avoid rubbery texture.

First off I loved the fact that I could pay for the lobster and then have it delivered the day I need it. We bought 26 lobster tails and they are all gone. Everyone loved them. Will definitely buy again.
We ordered their special of lobster tails and scallops for our Christmas eve tradition of seafood. It arrived on time and well packaged. We enjoyed it immensely, it was fresh and cooked up beautifully, we will order from them again.
I can’t express how impressed I am with the personalization of the order and the way they were packed. They were spunky and wanted to fight when the claws were freed. Nick arranged the requested shipping and UPS had them at my door by 1130. Sweet meat and our guest were shocked at the freshness of the meal. We will be doing this again! 12 lobsters went faster than Kyle Petty. Thanks again for making our 25 Anniversary dinner so very special! See you in a couple of months!
I ordered 6 live lobsters. They arrived on time, we're packed extremely well, looked perfect & tasted like a dream.
They were the perfect birthday present! I'll be ordering again and again.
My children and Grandson was so excited To see live lobsters delivered to their house. The lobsters tasted So good. It was definitely an experience of a lifetime for my family!
Ordered lobster tails for our work event. I have never ordered them before, so I was unsure how it would work out. If you are feeling the same way, order from here. Tails were amazing! They came very well packaged and were delicious! I ordered 32 with the BOGO and they sent a few extra to make it 36! I will order again. They even reached out to check on my order and to ask about my event! Very Highly recommend these guys! Very good lobster and very good customer service! Personally, I grilled these with some fillet, and they turned out amazing!
We highly recommend Shoplobster for your shipped lobster needs. We ordered on 4th of July week we had concerns our order would not arrive on time due to being located out in rural west Texas. Our order arrived on time and the lobsters were delicious. Customer service was top notch navigating us through holiday shipment tracking. We will 100% be ordering again in the future.
We had 11 people over for our 6th Annual Lobster Fest and your product was fantastic. I boiled the tail according to your directions and the meat was tender and juicy. We couldn't of been happier. I will order again, when we hold out 7th.
The lobster tails from ShopLobster were exquisite. We baked them and made lobster rolls. There were 3 left over and we made lobster mac n cheese according to a recipe on the website. So very tasty and delicious. Thank you ShopLobster.
Excellent product

I bought these for my mom who has been craving delicious lobster tails. Not only did she rave about how wonderful they tasted, but they were absolutely frozen solid when they arrived. You used so many ice packs and that is very appreciated. So glad I found your company!!
Our order arrived on time , properly packed and very fresh. We had lobster for dinner tonight and it was delicious. It even came with preparation instructions. Thanks for providing excellent service. A pleasure doing business with you. Thanks. We will be placing more orders.
Seriously came to my door over nite! Still frozen! Tails were delicious and beautiful!
Just got shipment this morning. Took out 4 tails to defrost and cook tonight. They handle well, cook up great and most importantly tastes great. Fresher than some wholesale restaurant markets that sell bulk frozen tails that many could have been there for months. Big difference with fresh.
