Ford’s Lobster

15 Riverview Ave., Noank

Ford’s Lobster might look like an unassuming lobster shack, yet the food is anything but average. Gourmet? Luxury? Lavishly delicious? Whatever you want to call the dishes they serve at Ford’s, you should indulge in some of them. I tried the lobster risotto ($27), which combines lobster, shiitake mushrooms, cherry tomatoes and scallions with creamy risotto. I enjoyed it quite a bit, but I will certainly be sampling other dishes on future visits, since the menu offers so many tempting options. Lobster and chorizo fettucine with seared scallops, I’m comin’ for ya!
