The Rockin’ Lobstar Comes To Town

Pulling a mussel…

hen happy loving couple Veronika and Zsolt Zakar came to Ireland 14 years ago, the goal was to simply spend 6 months here improving their English.

The idea of opening an award-winning seafood restaurant wasn’t exactly part of the plan.

Today, Lobstar is sitting pretty in sunny Monkstown, with the sort of accolades and awards Julian at The Hungry Monk would happily sell his son’s soul for. Very happily.

“Ever since I trained as a chef back home in Budapest, I always wanted my own restaurant,” Zsolt told The Irish Independent last year. “In Hungary, I was telling everyone I was going to have Zsolt’s Bistro, but it never happened…”

A man after our own punny heart, Zsolt also considered a soup restaurant called Souper before he and his wife followed through on their ambition to do seafood by opening Lobstar ten years ago.

And now the Delgany couple are bringing that award-winning seafood to town by creating Lobstar Pantry, a rather convenient next-day delivery on some of their most popular dishes.

The menu consists of…

⦿ Peeled Prawns 16/20 (1kg) – €15
⦿ Saku Tuna AAA (1kg) – €38
⦿ Fresh Irish Lobster (1kg) – €32
⦿ Organic Smoked Salmon (500g) – €28
⦿ Smoked Black Pudding (1kg) – €19
⦿ Murgella Burrata (120g) – €4
⦿ Japanese Wagyu Striploin – upon request
⦿ Extra Virgin Greek Olive Oil (500ml) – €13 (coming soon)

All products are the same restaurant-quality ingredients used by the couple’s team at Lobstar Restaurant. When your order is placed, a payment link will be sent.

“We’re continuously expanding our range based on customer demand and popular products,” says Veronika. “We’re also happy to share recipes, cooking tips, and chef recommendations to help you get the most from your ingredients.”
